For non-medical, private-pay home care agencies of any size
Home care scheduling software built around open shifts
Post a shift and a qualified caregiver claims it from their phone. Nodal keeps the schedule, the caregiver app, GPS-verified hours, and payroll exports together, so your office spends less time on the phone and less time retyping hours.

Fill shifts without a round of phone calls.
The open-shift pool is the center of scheduling in Nodal. Instead of calling down a list, you post the shift once and let the caregivers who are qualified for it pick it up.
Post the open shift
A manager posts an unassigned shift to the open-shift pool.
A qualified caregiver claims it
Qualified caregivers see the open shift in the caregiver app and claim it from their phones.
Hours are verified at clock-in
The caregiver clocks in and out with GPS verification, and those verified hours feed payroll and billing exports.
Caregiver scheduling that fits how home care works.
Home care schedules are built around people: the client who likes a familiar face, the visit that needs two sets of hands, the caregiver who checks their calendar before bed.
A primary caregiver for each client
Each client has a primary caregiver, so families see a familiar face and your schedule has continuity.
Shared shifts, separate clock-ins
Several caregivers can share a shift, and each one clocks in and out separately.
Shifts on their calendar
When a shift is assigned, Nodal emails the caregiver and adds the shift to their Google Calendar.
A home care scheduling app caregivers install from the browser.
The caregiver app is built for the phone a caregiver already carries.
- No app store. Caregivers install the app straight from the browser on iPhone or Android.
- Works offline. Clock in and out with no cell service. The app syncs when the connection returns.
- GPS-verified clock-in and clock-out. Every clock-in and clock-out is location-checked.
- Open shifts. Qualified caregivers see unassigned shifts and claim them.
- Shift reports. After each shift, caregivers write a short report on condition, mood, appetite, and mobility, and can add photos. Supervisors choose what the family sees in the family portal.
Payroll-ready exports from verified hours.
The hours caregivers clock in the app are the hours that go into payroll and billing, so nothing gets retyped at the end of the pay period.
Export files for the tools you already use
Nodal creates CSV files that you upload to your payroll and accounting tools. It does not connect to them directly, and you keep the systems you use today.
- OnPay · payroll
- Generic payroll CSV
- Xero · accounting
- QuickBooks Online · accounting
- Any other provider · AI-assisted template
Pricing is simple: $99 a month includes up to 10 active clients, with unlimited caregivers and office staff. See how home care software pricing works in Nodal.

How do open shifts work?
A manager posts an unassigned shift to the open-shift pool. Qualified caregivers see it in the caregiver app and claim it from their phones, so you fill the shift without a round of phone calls.
Can more than one caregiver work the same shift?
Yes. Several caregivers can share a shift, and each one clocks in and out separately. Each client also has a primary caregiver, for continuity.
How do caregivers find out about their shifts?
When a shift is assigned, Nodal emails the caregiver and adds the shift to their Google Calendar.
Do caregivers need an app store or cell service?
No. Caregivers install the app straight from the browser on their phone, with no app store. It works offline, so they can clock in and out with no cell service, and it syncs when the connection returns.
How are clock-ins checked?
Clock-ins and clock-outs are GPS-verified, so each one is location-checked. Payroll and billing exports are built from those verified hours.
Which payroll and accounting tools can I export to?
Nodal creates CSV files you upload yourself: OnPay for payroll, Xero and QuickBooks Online for accounting, a generic payroll CSV, and an AI-assisted template for any other provider.
