Company profile
researched Aug 2026Mon Ami, Inc. is a privately held software company that supplies a data system for aging and disability services. Its platform is organized into modules that share a common data layer: case management (its flagship product, covering person-centered care plans, assessments, service authorizations, progress notes and mobile-friendly home visits), billing (claims, invoicing and reimbursements), information and assistance (resource directory and intake), enhanced assessments (configurable evidence-based instruments), OAAPS reporting for the Older Americans Act Performance System, an ombudsman module for complaints, advocacy and facility visits, a provider portal for authorized providers, and Medicaid Administrative Claiming covering time studies, cost allocation and federal claims.
The company positions the platform around outcome documentation and compliance: it markets the ability to make agencies audit-ready for Title III, Older Americans Act, Medicaid and Administration for Community Living (ACL) reporting requirements, and to convert assessments, service hours and caseworker notes into evidence agencies can present to funders and legislators. Product materials cite configurable role-based views for supervisors, intake staff, ombudsmen and field workers, and interoperability with EHRs, managed care organizations and state systems via HL7/FHIR. Mon Ami states that all systems handling protected health information are HIPAA-compliant, that it signs a Business Associate Agreement with every customer, encrypts PHI in transit and at rest, and that it holds an annually audited SOC 2 Type II report across the AICPA Trust Services Criteria.
Mon Ami also publishes free infographics built from publicly available agency data — covering Older Americans Act return on investment, the gap between over-60 population growth and federal appropriations, and National Ombudsman Reporting System data — as advocacy material for agencies to share with legislators and funders.
Founding story
According to the company, the three co-founders started Mon Ami in 2018 after observing people close to them, and the staff serving them, working with systems not designed for the task. Joy Zhang volunteered in hospice and dementia care from high school and previously worked for the World Health Organization's aging team in Japan; she holds a BA in Human Biology and an MBA from Stanford. Madeline Dangerfield-Cha served as a respite companion to families caring for aging and disabled relatives and previously ran marketing and analytics for Google in Asia; she holds a BA in Education from Columbia and an MBA from Stanford. Steve Fram lost his mother to Alzheimer's in 2012 and previously co-founded Caring.com; he holds a mathematics degree from the University of Michigan.
Business model
Mon Ami sells a multi-module SaaS platform to government agencies and nonprofit service providers, with sales conducted through demo requests and direct engagement with state agencies. Contracts involve Business Associate Agreements with every customer, and the company reports being in conversation with additional state agencies for expansion.
Not disclosed in the sources; Seedtable provides an estimated revenue range of $4M–$10M, described as an estimate rather than reported figures.
Traction
The About page reports 16+ state agencies as customers, eight named state government partners, dozens of Area Agencies on Aging, community care hubs and ombudsman programs, and a 35-person team spanning engineering, implementation, design and customer success. Testimonials are attributed to officials at the Kentucky Department for Aging & Independent Living, the New Jersey Division of Aging Services and Tennessee Disability & Aging. The company claims quarterly reporting is on average four times faster after a Mon Ami rollout. Seedtable lists 31 employees and estimated revenue of $4M–$10M.
Latest developments
The website highlights a newly published infographic for intellectual and developmental disability services and a set of infographics using FY 2024 Older Americans Act data, FY 2015–2025 funding data and 2024 National Ombudsman Reporting System data. The company states it is currently in conversation with additional state agencies. Seedtable, updated 6 August 2026, records the most recent funding event as 1 June 2021 and flags increases in the site's proprietary momentum score.

Market position
Mon Ami describes itself as the system of record for state agencies delivering aging, disability and adult protective services, reporting more than 16 state agencies as customers and eight named state government partners (Tennessee Department of Disability & Aging, Kentucky Department for Aging & Independent Living, New Jersey Division of Aging Services, Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities, Alaska Department of Health, Hawai'i Department of Health, Wyoming Department of Aging, Mississippi Department of Human Services), plus dozens of Area Agencies on Aging, community care hubs and ombudsman programs. Earlier customer references include San Francisco's Department of Disability and Aging Services, Council on Aging of Central Oregon, Utah Commission on Aging, Montgomery County (PA) Office of Senior Services and SAGE USA. Seedtable ranks it #2 among Palo Alto nonprofit and social impact startups and #9,583 among U.S. startups, with a Seedtable Score of 49.
Mon Ami emphasizes purpose-built modules for aging and disability program requirements (OAAPS, ombudsman, Medicaid administrative claiming, Title III/OAA/ACL reporting), a shared data layer across modules to eliminate re-keying, HL7/FHIR interoperability, HIPAA and SOC 2 Type II compliance, and staff with prior agency experience delivering implementation support.
Technology
A cloud-based, modular platform in which modules share a single data layer to avoid duplicate data entry. Features include a unified case manager dashboard with caseload, appointments, tasks and assignments; automatic surfacing of reassessments, check-ins and overdue tasks; role-configurable views; mobile-friendly home visit workflows; and interoperability with EHRs, MCOs and state systems over HL7/FHIR. Security and compliance posture includes HIPAA compliance, encryption of PHI in transit and at rest, a documented breach-notification process, U.S.-region data hosting, and an annually audited SOC 2 Type II report.
Go-to-market
The company markets directly to state and local government agencies and nonprofit providers via its website (demo scheduling), sector conference presence such as the National Council on Aging's NCOA Connect partner spotlight, published case studies and videos, and free data infographics aimed at helping agencies advocate to legislators and funders. It employs partner implementation managers, solutions architects and a national partnerships director, indicating a direct enterprise/government sales and implementation motion.
State Units on Aging, Area Agencies on Aging, intellectual and developmental disability agencies, state long-term care ombudsman programs, Medicaid home and community-based services programs, community care hubs, adult protective services programs, and community nonprofits serving older adults.
Geography
United States only. Corporate headquarters listed as San Francisco, California on the company's About page, with a Palo Alto, California business address (614 Everett Avenue) recorded in an SEC Form D filing. Named state agency partners span Tennessee, Kentucky, New Jersey, Ohio, Alaska, Hawai'i, Wyoming and Mississippi, with additional agency customers referenced in California, Oregon, Utah and Pennsylvania. All data is hosted in U.S. regions.
History
Mon Ami was founded in 2018 by Joy Zhang, Madeline Dangerfield-Cha and Steve Fram, and emerged out of Stanford Business School. Its earlier positioning, as described in a National Council on Aging partner profile, was as a builder of technology tools for senior service providers, helping Area Agencies on Aging and community nonprofits manage and scale programs such as telephone reassurance, friendly visiting, chore services, insurance counseling and care coordination, including scaling volunteer services during COVID. The current product line is a broader, multi-module data system for aging, disability and adult protective services agencies, with a stated 16+ state agency footprint and eight named state government partners. The company is listed at a Palo Alto, California business address in an SEC Form D filing, while its own About page gives its headquarters as San Francisco, California.
Risks & controversies
No controversies are reported in the sources. Sources contain inconsistencies worth noting: the company's About page lists San Francisco as headquarters while an SEC Form D filing records a Palo Alto address; headcount is given as 35 on the company site versus 31 on Seedtable; and total funding is listed as $8.3M by Seedtable. Impact statistics cited on the company website (e.g., $3.39 community return per $1 invested, 4x faster quarterly reporting, 68% of state agencies reporting tighter requirements) are self-published. The business depends on federal and state program funding for aging services, which the company itself describes as flat or declining in inflation-adjusted terms.
