Founding 50. Free through 2027. A direct line to the team that built it.
For Advocacy Groups

Annual surveys can't capture the year your families actually live.

Every platform asks your community to contribute data for research someday. CareGene helps them manage care today, and the richest data comes naturally from daily use.

The Coordination Crisis

Your families are exhausted. Here's why.

A new task list every day

Rare-disease caregivers track medications, appointments, therapies, school accommodations, and insurance appeals across spreadsheets and sticky notes.

Specialists who don't talk

Families see multiple specialists across multiple systems. Parents become the only thread connecting fragmented care.

Caregiver burnout is the rule

The community needs daily relief, not another annual survey. Tools built for the family unlock data the foundation can't get any other way.

The CareGene Difference

Other platforms collect old records. CareGene captures what's happening now.

FOR YOUR FOUNDATION

What you get

Better data because it comes from daily life, not annual surveys.

Daily-use engagement

Built for daily use

Families open CareGene because it helps them today, not because you asked them to contribute to research someday.

Longitudinal data

Designed for daily use

We designed CareGene to be used during everyday care, so the data reflects what families experience between appointments.

Faster trial matching

Real-time phenotype data

When trials open, instantly identify eligible families based on verified, up-to-date data, not stale records.

The Advocacy Advantage

Structured longitudinal data

When trials open, surface eligible families directly from the timeline they're already keeping for their own care.

Designed for research compatibility

Subject to study-specific validation. No questionnaires. No re-collection.

Longitudinal natural history

Continuous capture between appointments, structured into the standards your research team already uses.

FHIR-native exports

Granular consent. Audit trails. Permission revocation any time.

Year-round engagement

A tool families use every day for their own care. Annual surveys and registries can't match that cadence.

Built for daily use

Engagement comes from utility, not from asking.
