Example: a carer says "Helped Mrs Hughes with lunch, she ate all of it, had a cup of tea and a glass of water. Blood pressure one-twenty over eighty. She was quieter than usual but settled after." Bieda fills in care activity, nutrition, fluids, blood pressure, and mood. Pulse wasn't mentioned, so it is left blank and flagged for the carer to check. The carer then saves the note.

Illustrative example, not a real resident. Press the microphone above to try it with your own voice.
Carers speak their notes the way they already hand over. Bieda sets them out as a structured care note, the carer checks it and saves it, and every change is kept in the audit trail. Still on paper? Bieda gives you clear digital care notes from day one. Already digital? It works alongside the system you use.

Too many notes are written after the care, from memory.
Notes get written up at the nurses' station after the round, or in the car between visits. Details get missed, and the extra admin eats into time that should go on care.

How it works
If your team can send a voice note, they can use Bieda. It runs in the web browser on the phones, tablets and computers you already have, with nothing to install.
1
Speak
Choose the resident, tap once and talk through the visit or the round in your own words, the way you'd hand over to a colleague.
2
Check
Bieda sets it out as a care note. Anything unclear or missing is flagged for you to check, never filled in.
3
Save
One tap saves it under your own name. Every save and every correction is time-stamped in the audit log.

What it means for your team
For carers
No writing up after the shift.
Notes are spoken at the time, in their own words, instead of typed up later.
For managers
Clear records for inspection.
Consistent, time-stamped notes, with a record of who wrote what and when, that you can export as PDF or CSV.
For owners
Less time on admin.
Bieda is designed to cut the time carers spend writing notes, so more of the shift goes on care. Moving off paper takes days, not months, and if you already have a care record system, it stays.
Built to keep the record trustworthy.
A person checks and saves every note. Nothing is filled in for them, and nothing in the record can be deleted or changed without a trace.
Gaps are left blank
If something wasn't said, the field stays empty. Entries that may be wrong or incomplete, such as an unlikely reading or a drink without an amount, are flagged for the carer to check.
A person signs off every note
Nothing reaches the record until the carer who gave the care has reviewed it and saved it.
Saved under the right name
Every note is saved under the signed-in carer's own account, never a name someone typed in.
Two-step sign-in
Every account needs a password and an authenticator app code. Sessions lock when a device is left idle and end after one shift.
Stored in the UK
Notes are stored in Microsoft Azure in London. Speech is converted to text by Microsoft in the EU, and Bieda doesn't keep voice recordings.
Paperwork before any pilot
No resident data is processed until a written data processing agreement is in place with the care provider.

Why we built Bieda
“I used to be a carer. I built Bieda so carers can say it once, at the time, and get back to the people they look after.”

Our first five care providers get a free 60-day pilot, and their first-year price is locked. We're in London and will come to you to set it up. Every pilot's terms are agreed in writing before anything starts.

Every note is checked and saved by the carer who gave the care, under their own account with two-step sign-in. Saved notes can be corrected but never deleted. Each correction is kept as a new version with a reason, and every action goes into an audit log that can't be edited.
Before any pilot, we sign a data processing agreement with you, complete a data protection impact assessment together, and share our security documentation. No resident data is processed until that's in place.
Bieda is designed to help you keep accurate, complete and contemporaneous records, as CQC Regulation 17 requires. Responsibility for care and for your records stays with your organisation.
What does Bieda do, and what doesn't it do?
Bieda transcribes and structures care notes for review and approval by care staff. It does not diagnose, monitor or recommend treatment. Its flags are documentation checks, asking the carer to make sure an entry is right and complete. They are not care instructions.
Where is our data kept?
Notes are stored in Microsoft Azure in London (UK South). Speech is converted to text by Microsoft's service in the EU (Sweden), and the recording is discarded afterwards. Bieda doesn't keep voice recordings, and Microsoft doesn't use your data to train its models.
Do carers need training?
If they can send a voice note, they can use Bieda. We'll walk your team through it when you start.
What if it mishears something?
The carer sees every field before saving and can correct anything. Anything unclear or unlikely is flagged for them to check, never guessed.
We still use paper. Is Bieda for us?
Yes, especially. Bieda gives you clear, digital daily care notes from the first day: carers speak, check and save, and managers can print or export any resident's notes as a PDF for inspection.
We already have a care record system. Does Bieda replace it?
No. Bieda works alongside it. Carers speak their notes in Bieda, and managers export the finished notes as PDF or CSV. Direct links into the most common care record systems are planned, starting with the ones our pilot providers use.
Can carers speak in their own language?
Carers will be able to speak in the language they think in, with Bieda writing the note in English and showing it back in their language to check. It's available for pilots once our clinical safety sign-off is done for that language.
Can I try it first?
Yes. Speak a sample note about a fictional resident at app.bieda.ai/demo. There's no sign-up, and nothing you say is stored.
Which devices does it work on?
Any modern phone, tablet or computer with a web browser and a microphone. There's nothing to install.
What does it cost?
It depends on the size of your service. We'll go through it on the demo call, and every pilot's terms are agreed in writing first.
