SwitchMate for Providers
Day Hab · Respite · Supported Employment · a Best Polity LLC product

Turn plan goals into documented activities — with one switch.

SwitchMate lets your staff build a timed, goal-based activity session for any participant, run it on any device, and automatically capture the billing and narrative documentation your organization needs.

The problem

Documentation shouldn't take longer than the activity.

Day-hab staff are asked to serve individuals with meaningful, goal-directed activities — and then write it all down for billing and progress notes. That second job is where the day gets lost. SwitchMate does the documentation while the activity happens.

What SwitchMate is

A single-switch activity system for the people you serve

🎯

Goal → activity mapping

Each participant's plan goals map to real, engaging activities — AAC typing, choice-making, games — all operable with a single switch, tap, or key.

⏱️

Timed, structured sessions

Pick goals and a duration; SwitchMate builds the session and walks staff — or the participant themselves — through it step by step.

📄

Automatic documentation

Per-goal completion, time on task, and a generated narrative summary — ready to drop into your billing and progress notes.

How it works

From plan to progress note in four steps

1
Add the participant and their goals

Create a profile for the person you serve and list their plan goals (making friends, learning to type, playing games…).

2
Build a session

Choose the goals for this session and a length — e.g. "20 minutes." SwitchMate maps each goal to an activity and sequences them.

3
Run it — staff-led or participant-led

Run it together on a shared device, or generate an invite link so the participant completes it on their own device — no sign-in needed on their end.

4
Get the documentation

Completion per goal, elapsed time, and a written narrative are captured automatically for billing and progress notes.

The output

Narrative documentation, generated for you

Here's the kind of note a session produces — no extra writing required from staff:

John participated in a 20-minute, 3-goal activity session. ✓ Make a friend (choose a conversation topic) — 7m 12s ✓ Practice typing my name — 6m 40s ✓ Play a computer game — 6m 08s Facilitated by staff. Participant completed the session on their device.
Privacy & security

Built for the trust you owe your participants

  • No participant sign-in required — sessions are accessed via secure, single-use-style invite links.
  • Participant data is scoped per staff member and per organization.
  • On-device typing and word-prediction never leave the device.
  • Optional anonymous usage statistics can be turned off at any time.
  • Staff access is gated by an approved-email allowlist.
  • No ads, ever. No selling or sharing personal data.
  • Aligned with SwitchMate's existing privacy policy for participants.
"Staff-first, by design." We started with the people doing the work — simple tools that reduce documentation burden, so more of the day goes to the individuals, not the paperwork.
