ANKOTA provides software for home care, electronic visit verification (EVV), adult day services, self-direction, and services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Its home care platform combines client and caregiver management, care plans, scheduling, billing, payroll, documentation, and compliance tools. Caregivers can verify visits through a GPS mobile app, voice telephony, or fixed beacons; the app can record visits offline and sync when coverage returns. Scheduling features include recurring shifts, open-shift filling, appointments, assessments, and route optimization. The Cares offering describes authorization management, Medicaid claims and remittance through EDI, and accounts receivable management. Caregiver and family apps provide schedules, visit details, communications, and updates. The public API can accept lead, CRM, HR, applicant, client, caregiver, and visit data, and can connect with systems such as QuickBooks, BambooHR, Viventium, and Paylocity. ANKOTA says its software is HIPAA compliant and uses encryption and role-based access. Pricing is available on request; an older product overview says monthly fees depend on agency size and telephony fees are additional.
