Eleplan is an AI-powered care planning platform that supports families affected by disability, chronic illness, and aging. We empower caregivers to easily create a document (the "Eleplan") that tracks their loved one throughout their life and between and among current and future caregivers.Alongside the Eleplan itself, our platform streamlines sharing and storing of documents, key contacts, medications, and more. Whether between doctors and other medical providers or a parent sharing information with a babysitter, we enable families to efficiently and effectively share and tailor important information. More critically, Eleplan helps families plan for the dreaded transition and question of "what happens when I am no longer here? How will someone know how to take care of my loved one?"
