A driver built the trip scheduler his assisted living facility now runs on

He drives for an assisted living facility that tracked every resident trip on spreadsheets the front desk found hard to use. He built a web app with AI that shows all trips past, present and future with conflicts and updates, from his desktop or phone. It improved his daily work and the front desk’s, and took a few months where the old way would have taken about a year.

How it works

  1. Map the spreadsheet process
  2. Build the scheduler with AI
  3. Add past, present and future trips with conflict flags
  4. Front desk and drivers switch to it
  5. Daily work improves for both

Why it’s worth knowing

The person who suffered the spreadsheet most was the driver, so the driver built the replacement.
