Forward Foundation

AI that waits for you.

Decision support for family dementia caregivers, and matching for the direct care workforce — always with a human gate, never a silent action.

Care gets harder when the next move is unclear.

Family caregivers lose hours second-guessing whether a change means manage-at-home or escalate. Agencies lose capacity to missed visits, overtime, and mismatched assignments. As a charitable nonprofit, Forward Foundation builds free tools that collapse that uncertainty — and refuse to act until a person confirms.

KinSight

Escalate or wait, with the decision still yours.

A short voice or text observation. Compared to a caregiver-controlled personal baseline. One of three bands: manage at home, contact the care team, or seek urgent help — with reason codes you can verify. Confirm, override, or ignore before anything is recorded.

  • Deterministic red-flag routing for crisis language
  • “I don’t know” protocol — incomplete inputs never become guesses
  • Bilingual English and Spanish, voice-first, free to families

SteadyCrew

Match, schedule, and cover gaps — without surveillance.

For home care agencies and HCBS organizations. Match aides on skills, language, distance, and continuity. Propose schedules under hour caps. Flag coverage risk early. Supervisors approve, edit, or reject before anything publishes. Workers keep decline rights. Tool metrics are contractually barred from discipline.

  • Hard constraint blocks for credential gaps and forced overtime
  • Fairness audits when late shifts concentrate on the same aides
  • Free to aides · funded by agency licensing · EVV/FHIR export path

Built around the Caregiver AI Principles.

Human in the loop

No recommendation becomes an action until someone confirms it. Override and ignore are first-class.

Refuse to guess

Incomplete, contradictory, or prohibited requests are flagged or refused — never improvised into confidence.

Reason codes, not black boxes

Every band and match shows the codes a caregiver or supervisor can verify before they act.

Protect people, not just workflows

Privacy, dignity, and worker-protection rules are product requirements — not footer policy.
