Unique IQ
Care management and AI
Supported living & home care
Care management platform with an AI Suite at its core, bringing rostering, care planning, auditing and communication together for home care providers.
The read
Unique IQ provides home care management software to domiciliary, supported living, live-in, complex care and reablement providers. Its platform brings rostering, care planning, auditing and communication together in one place, helping care teams spend less time on admin and more time delivering care.
Its AI Suite includes IQ:careaudit, which audits visit notes and medication records in real time and reviews each day's delivered care against the person's care plan (the company says this takes 95% less time than manual auditing); IQ:careassist, which co-authors care plans alongside care teams using CQC-aligned templates; and IQ:capture, a standalone transcription tool that turns assessments, reviews and handovers into structured summaries.
Founded in 2006 and headquartered in Redditch, Unique IQ brings over 20 years of experience in the care sector.
The Bridgehead view
Unique IQ has moved from workforce tools to AI that works on the care record itself: it audits visit notes and medication records, checks each day's delivered care against the care plan, and drafts plans from CQC-aligned templates. In home care, where audit backlogs and care plan quality are what inspectors read, that is a sensible place to point AI. The 95% saving on audit time is the company's own figure, and the one to test against a customer's data.
