Homeplate

A mobile-first ops app for solo family child care providers that replaces two disconnected tools with one, checking every CACFP meal against USDA rules the moment it is logged.

The problem

Solo family child care providers on the CACFP food program run two disconnected tools, a general ops app for attendance and billing and a separate, clunky claims tool their sponsor assigns (usually KidKare), and none of them check a meal against USDA meal pattern rules until claim time, when a missed component means an unpaid, unfixable day.

The wedge

A single mobile-first app for solo providers that checks each meal against CACFP meal pattern rules in real time from a photo or voice note, exports a sponsor-ready claim, and is priced flat per provider instead of per child, sold direct and through CACFP sponsoring organizations.
