MyLifePlan is also suitable for any other care environment where providing person-centred care is a key priority,

“ It has been a pleasure to work with Lumin. We run four children’s homes and are keen to develop a care recording package that is user friendly, GDPR compliant and helps us to better map the progress of children. They have taken on board all feedback sent to them, communication is great with regular meetings and they are always keen to learn more about the sector to develop their product. They understand the need to be child and care focussed throughout the project.”

Smarter AI. Better Care Recording.

MyLifePlan brings AI directly into your care forms, helping staff improve the quality of their recording without asking AI to write their reports for them.

Developed in response to concerns from care providers about staff using external AI tools, MyLifePlan provides five controlled AI commands within the secure care recording environment. Staff remain responsible for what they record; AI simply helps them refine and improve what they have already written.

AI designed to augment professional judgement, not replace it

MyLifePlan works with the information staff have already recorded, helping improve clarity, consistency, and quality while keeping the member of staff in control.

For managers, that means greater confidence in how AI is being used within their service. For staff, it provides practical support with recording. And for providers, it helps build clearer evidence of the care being delivered every day.

A clear, intuitive layout means less time learning the system and more time using it.

Cost-effective — and cost-saving

60% faster

Save time and money on admin costs. Designed to reduce the time needed to create a care note by up to 60%

When tested against one of the major care planning systems, MyLifePlan’s smart, streamlined design reduced the time needed to create a care note by up to 60%.

For a small provider, that could translate into admin cost savings of over £12,000 a year — all while freeing up more time for hands-on care.
