Company profile
researched Aug 2026Kibu is a software platform for disability service providers, aimed at organizations and direct support professionals (DSPs) who support individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The product combines administrative workflow tools with a library of educational content, covering attendance, service notes, AI-generated reports, life plans, medication tracking, member records, task assignment, and appointment/transport scheduling. Compliance tracking is presented as a dashboard view that directors can access remotely, replacing spreadsheet-based calculation.
Additional platform features include built-in translation, AI-assisted service note writing (described on the site as a "magic pen" on daily notes), configurable controls and custom dashboards per user, and mobile-ready access. Content and prebuilt lesson plans, including video lessons, are delivered inside the same system so that member education and progress tracking occur together rather than across separate tools. The company states that the platform is HIPAA compliant and fully encrypted, and that new customers receive personalized onboarding.
Founding story
According to the company, Kibu was founded to help disability providers overcome the burden of outdated systems and continuous compliance requirements, which reduce the time staff can spend supporting individuals living with IDD. Daniel Caridi is identified as Co-Founder and CEO.
Business model
Kibu sells a subscription-style software platform to disability service provider organizations, which use it as a single system for documentation, compliance and member-facing educational content. The website directs prospects to request a demo rather than self-serve sign-up.
