We've worked with Carework before. What's changed?

The team you trusted is still here. What's changed is the speed — Voice AI calls applicants within minutes, live-transfers qualified caregivers to your team, and runs your pipeline 24/7. Your strategist still manages your ads and knows your market. The AI handles first contact; humans handle everything that matters.

We already have an internal recruiter.

Our AI makes your recruiter dramatically more effective. No more cold calls or weekend gaps. Your recruiter focuses on orientation, culture, and retention. We handle everything before that.

Why not just hire an offshore VA or a recruiting assistant?

Offshore VAs work set hours in a different time zone and need training. Carework's AI works 24/7, calls every applicant within minutes, never has an off day, and never quits — combined with human strategists with 7+ years of home care recruiting data.

Why do some of your demo calls sound different?

Every Carework AI agent is built specifically for your agency. You choose the name, voice, accent, tone, gender, and style. Before you go live, you hear exactly what your caregivers will hear and sign off on it.

Built for Home Care Agencies

Caregivers Are Calling. You Should Answer The Phone.

Q: Will caregivers actually talk to an AI?

Yes. Our AI sounds warm, professional, and competent — and because it calls within minutes of an application, the caregiver is still excited. Delayed human follow-up loses more candidates than a warm AI ever will.

Q: It seems expensive.

What does an empty shift cost? What does 77% annual turnover cost in training and lost clients? Our clients see ROI within 30–60 days. Home Helpers Lansdale reduced turnover by 25%. Seniors Home Care grew revenue 8%.

We handle the chasing and the phone tag. You pick up when they're ready.

Carework is a full recruiting department for your agency — AI that works 24/7 and humans who make sure everything performs. For years our team did this work manually: calling every applicant, managing every ad, chasing every follow-up. Now AI does the part that scales. Our humans do the part that matters. The result is the same: qualified caregivers scheduled and ready.

Our Structural Edge

Every other AI recruiting tool schedules a callback. We connect them live.

The scheduling problem

Most AI recruiting tools screen a caregiver and then book a future appointment. Sounds fine — until you look at the data. Only about 50% of those appointments actually show up. The caregiver applied, got excited, then had time to cool off, find another job, or simply forget.

The Carework difference

When Carework's AI screens a qualified caregiver, it connects them live — right then — to your team. The caregiver is already on the phone, already engaged. Contact rate is close to 100%. This single difference changes how many caregivers make it through your entire hiring funnel.

How Carework Works

From Application to Orientation. Done For You.

Think of it as hiring a full-time recruiter — one that works 24/7, never drops a follow-up, and costs a fraction of a salary. Carework handles every step from application to scheduled orientation. Your team shows up when it matters: when a qualified caregiver is already on the line.

Apply

Caregiver submits application on Indeed or your job platform.

AI Screens

Our Voice AI calls within minutes. Warm, natural conversation.

Live Transfer

Qualified caregiver is connected to your team right now.

Interview

Your team (or ours) conducts the full interview.

Hire

Caregiver is booked directly into orientation.

Why Live Transfer Changes Everything

Competitors schedule a callback — and lose ~50% of candidates to no-shows. Our AI connects the caregiver while they're still on the phone — delivering close to 100% contact rate. This is the most important structural difference in the industry.

Several AI-only companies have shut down when VC funding ran out, leaving clients stranded mid-contract. Carework has been bootstrapped and profitable since 2018.

Why Carework Works

AI for the work that scales.
Humans for the work that matters.
Economics that work for any size agency.

For years, Carework's human team did everything — managed job ads, called every applicant, sent every follow-up text, chased every no-call. We know exactly what it takes because we did it manually, at scale, across hundreds of markets. Now our AI handles the part that doesn't require judgment: the 24/7 dialing, the instant responses, the persistent follow-up. Our humans handle the part that does: strategy, ad optimization, and the interviews that turn applicants into orientation-ready caregivers.

Common Questions

We've heard every objection. Here's the honest answer.

The team you trusted is still here — same people, same relationships, same commitment to getting it right. What's changed is the speed. We've built Voice AI that calls your applicants within minutes of applying, live-transfers qualified caregivers directly to your team, and runs your pipeline 24/7 so nothing falls through the cracks on nights or weekends. Your strategist still manages your ads, still picks up the phone when results drop, and still knows your market. The AI handles the first contact. The humans handle everything that matters. Everything you love about Carework — just faster.

Play the demo. It doesn't sound like a robot — it sounds warm, professional, and competent. And because it calls within minutes of an application, the caregiver is still excited. Delayed human follow-up loses more candidates than a warm AI ever will.

Our AI makes your recruiter dramatically more effective. No more cold calls. No more weekend gaps. Your recruiter focuses on orientation, culture, and retention. We handle everything before that.

Most voice AI routes candidates into a scheduling queue where 50% never show up. Our model is different — live transfer while the caregiver is already on the phone. Play the demo, then look at the contact rate difference.

Are they managing your ads? Do they have a human you can call when results drop? Are they bootstrapped or burning VC money? Two agencies we know signed with AI-only solutions that shut down mid-contract. We've operated since 2018.

Offshore VAs are a reasonable option — and for some agencies, they work. But here's what you're comparing: a VA works set hours, in a different time zone, and needs training, management, and time to ramp up. When they leave, you start over. Carework's AI works 24/7, calls every applicant within minutes of applying, never has an off day, and never quits. Our human strategists — who have 7+ years of home care recruiting data — manage your ads and diagnose what's not working. You're not choosing between a robot and a person. You're getting both, for less than what most agencies pay a single part-time hire.

Because every Carework AI agent is built specifically for your agency. You choose the name. You approve the voice — regional accent, tone, gender, style. Before you go live, you hear exactly what your caregivers will hear and sign off on it. This isn't a generic bot we flip on for every client. It's a customized recruiter we build for you — one that represents your agency the way you want it represented. The onboarding process is designed to get every detail right before a single call goes out.
