Open Kura NotesHow it works
No blank page at the end of a long day. The app asks only about the shift you worked.
Pick the shift you worked, then tap what happened: meals, medications, mood, outings, visitors. Skip anything that doesn't apply. Typing is optional.
Every sentence comes from something you tapped or typed. Change any word you like before you sign.
Signing locks the note with your name, role and the time. Tap Copy and paste it wherever you file your notes.
The proof
The chips are what was tapped. The text is the note the app wrote from them, then signed and locked.
Tapped
Written
Around 7:00 AM, the individual woke up and went to the bathroom to freshen up. The individual took care of their oral care, showered and got dressed without assistance.
The individual made their way to the dining room for their AM medication. Once at the dining table, the provider handed the individual their AM medication, which they took in the presence of the provider with a glass of water.
At 7:30 AM the provider served the individual scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast, along with a glass of juice.
Before leaving, the provider made the individual's lunch, which consisted of a turkey sandwich with fruit, plus a refillable bottle of water. The program van took the individual to the day program around 8:30 AM.
Around 2:45 PM the individual was brought home from the day program.
The support coordinator came to the home at 4:00 PM for a monthly visit. The individual met with them and was receptive and engaged.
Back at home, the individual listened to music until dinner.
At 6:00 PM the provider served the individual baked chicken with rice and green beans for dinner, along with a glass of water.
After finishing dinner, the provider handed the individual their PM medication at the dining table, which they took in the presence of the provider with a glass of water.
After dinner, the individual spent time with the provider's family until it was time for bed.
The individual then went to their bedroom for the night at 9:00 PM.
Overall, the individual was calm and cooperative today.
A real note: the app wrote every sentence above from one made-up Tuesday's taps.
What it captures
The questions go only as deep as the shift and the person's support level call for. An overnight shift is never asked about lunch.
Morning, afternoon, evening, overnight awake, overnight asleep and full day. The note states the window it covers.
Independent, minimal, moderate or full assistance, which changes how deep the questions go and how the note is worded.
With sides, drinks and how they were served, and meals out at a named place.
Method and witness; refusals with the reason and what you did; extra doses, med training and med changes.
Bathing, toileting, continence care, dressing, grooming, transfers and repositioning.
How they rested, wakeful episodes with times, and night care.
Time, what was done and how it went. A refusal takes your own explanation, used as you wrote it.
Day program with drop-off and pick-up, appointments with escort and outcome, outings and visitors.
Goals with prompting level and progress; health concerns with the action taken.
What happened, what was done, the outcome and who was notified.
Who it's for
For people supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, or aging adults.
A note for every person, every night, without losing your evening.
Finish your shift notes before you leave, not after you get home.
Keep a clear daily record, without the paperwork feeling.
Not built for agencies: no billing units, no scheduling. It does one job.
Why Kura Notes exists
Documentation is what ends good providers. Not the care, the paperwork.
Kura Notes exists to give every caregiver their evening back with a daily note that is thorough, true to the shift and signed, without a word invented and without a word leaving their phone.
Built by Roy Rios, a host home provider. Every prompt in the app came out of his own notes, the ones that passed review.

The promises
It writes what happened. It keeps it on your phone.
Every sentence traces back to something you tapped or typed. No AI writes anything, and nothing is filled in to sound complete. It never adds a reassuring line you didn't give it.
Before you sign, a check stops you if a fact you entered is missing from the note.
Your notes are stored only on your own device. Set a PIN and they are encrypted and locked behind it. No cloud, no server copy, no account holding anyone's notes: we could not read a note if we were asked to.
Each person you support is recorded by a label you choose, never a legal name. From the app, the only things that ever leave your phone are a licence key and a device ID, to check the subscription.
Signing locks the note with your name, role and the time. A correction becomes a dated addendum; the original never changes.
An append-only activity ledger on your device records every signature, view, edit and export, with who and when.
FAQ
