Aidaly is a platform that helps family caregivers find sources of compensation and financial aid and manage related paperwork. The company verifies identity, validates insurance and runs background checks in under five minutes, and says it can identify benefit eligibility in less than 15 minutes. Aidaly scans a database of hundreds of programs — including Medicaid Managed Care Programs, Medicaid Waivers, Participant‑Direction/Self‑Direction programs and non‑Medicaid home‑care/HCBS programs — to maximize caregiver payouts. The startup cites there are 53 million unpaid family caregivers in the U.S., with routine out‑of‑pocket expenses averaging $7,242 per year; it supports people providing roughly 15–25 hours of care per week, about 80% of whom are family. Early users have reportedly seen a 160% increase in their ability to recover from financial shocks. The company has raised $8.5 million and plans to use the funding to expand into new markets across the United States; it is currently active in the Miami‑Dade, Florida area.
