CQC compliance & governance platform

The CQC compliance platform we wished existed when we were scrambling before an inspection

We focus exclusively on governance and evidence, because that is what CQC inspectors need to see, every time.

Why we built this

Most "CQC compliance" software is really care management software with compliance features bolted on. They try to do everything: rostering, payroll, care plans, medication, AND compliance.

The result? Bloated systems that are hard to use, expensive, and still leave you scrambling when an inspector walks through the door.

CareCompliant is different. We focus exclusively on what CQC inspectors need to see: documented evidence of governance, oversight, and a learning culture across Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well-Led.

We do not do care plans. We do not do rotas. We do not do payroll. We do compliance, for every CQC-registered service type, and we do it properly.

Our philosophy

How we approach CQC compliance

Evidence over intention

Inspectors do not care what you plan to do. They care what you can prove you have done. Every feature creates a timestamped, auditable evidence chain, from incident review to training sign-off.

Every incident drives documented learning

No incident can close without a root cause, action plan, and sign-off. Every audit finding and risk review triggers a documented learning loop, the kind of learning culture CQC inspectors actively look for.

Human oversight, always

CareCompliant surfaces compliance gaps and overdue actions. It never closes an incident, approves a risk assessment, or makes care decisions on your behalf. Your governance, your accountability, just better evidenced.

A governance layer, not a replacement

Works alongside your existing care software

CareCompliant is not a care management replacement. It is a dedicated governance and compliance layer that sits alongside tools like Birdie, PASS, Log my Care, and Nourish, adding the evidence structure your existing system does not provide.

When an inspector asks to see your incident management trail, your training compliance matrix, or evidence of learning from audit findings, CareCompliant gives you a single place to show it. One dashboard. One evidence export. All five CQC key questions covered.
