You opened your home to give children stability. Placestead handles the billing, tracking, and compliance so you can focus on what matters most — the young lives in your care.
Replace the spreadsheets, paper logs, and scattered systems with one platform designed for people who run group homes — not the other way around.
Keep every child's placement history, status, and records in one secure place — so nothing falls through the cracks.
Per-diem billing runs automatically. No more missed days, manual calculations, or revenue left on the table.
QR-code kiosks at each home make sign-ins fast and contactless — accurate attendance without the paper trail.
Invite your team, assign roles, and know exactly who has access to what — across every home you run.
Every action is timestamped and recorded. When auditors come, you're already ready.
Whether you run one home or ten, manage them all from a single dashboard with per-home detail.
Running a group home is expensive. These are real, common problems we built Placestead to solve — and the money and time they cost you every month.
The problem: Providers tracking per-diem on spreadsheets commonly miss 2-3 billable days per youth each month — small gaps that add up fast across multiple homes.
Placestead captures every placement day automatically. Billing is generated from real data, not memory, so you get paid for every day you provide care.
The problem: Directors and house managers often spend 8-10 hours per week compiling sign-in logs, assembling billing sheets, and building placement reports by hand.
One-click exports and auto-generated reports replace manual work — freeing your staff to focus on the children, not the paperwork.
The problem: When auditors arrive, scrambling through file cabinets, email threads, and scattered spreadsheets can cost days of stressful prep work.
Every action in Placestead is logged with timestamps. Pull any report in seconds — placement history, billing records, sign-in logs — all audit-ready.
