For care agencies in Germany

The inbox sorts itself. The rotation plans along with you.

Two areas eat up most of the time in day-to-day agency work: the email inbox and assignment planning. HerzensManagement takes the routine off your hands in both. AI email sorts incoming messages and writes draft replies, and rotation planning works out follow-on rotations, conflicts and invoices by itself.

Rotation planning in HerzensManagement: timeline with 28-day rotations per client, changeover days and a notice about detected conflicts
Two focus areas

Where German agencies get the most time back

AI email and rotation planning are equally available to agencies in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. We put them front and centre here because they work independently of national rules: every agency has to answer emails and plan assignments, every day.

AI email

The important things first, before you open the first email

You connect your existing agency mailbox via IMAP and SMTP, including Gmail or Outlook. At the click of a button, HerzensManagement fetches the new emails and the AI classifies each one: category, status, urgency and a one-sentence summary. Instead of fifty subject lines, you read a list that already knows what needs a reply.

Replies

The draft is ready, you decide

One click on “Suggest reply” and the AI writes a draft that knows the incoming email and the previous thread. If you like, you add an instruction, such as “Confirm the appointment on Thursday”. You store your agency's opening hours, contact persons and standard wording once in the knowledge base, and the drafts then sound like you.

Writing aids for every email

Improve text, make it shorter, more professional or more detailed, correct spelling and adjust the tone: friendly, matter-of-fact, formal, empathetic or firm.

Contacts from HerzensManagement

You search for clients, representatives, relatives and caregivers directly in the email window. Add them as recipients or give them to the AI as context, so the draft addresses the right person.

Templates with placeholders

New emails are created from your templates. The names of client and caregiver fill themselves in, and required documents are attached from the profile. If something is missing, a notice warns you before sending.

The AI never sends on its own.

It sorts and suggests. Emails are sent only by a person on your team, after a confirmation. If facts such as an appointment or a price are missing, the AI inserts a placeholder instead of making something up.

The AI sees only what it needs.

The AI receives a fixed selection of contact fields, no care assessment, no bank details, no rates. The mailbox password is stored encrypted, and each agency's data stays separate.

Rotation

Set it up once, the system works out the follow-on rotations

A single rotation, a recurring series or two caregivers who take turns: the plan appears in the timeline from the start date and rotation length, including changeover days. Open-ended series extend themselves every night. If an arrival moves, you drag the bar or shift all following rotations by a few days, without anyone recalculating.

Conflicts before they get expensive

If a caregiver is double-booked or a client is covered twice, the system reports the conflict immediately, even while you drag in the timeline. A shared changeover day is allowed, just as in real life.

Find gaps instead of searching for them

Gap detection shows clients without care, sorted by the next gap. The dashboard shows the upcoming changeovers for the next 7 days and the unfilled rotations for the next 14 days.

Extend, shift, undo

A rotation is extended and the case number stays the same. Follow-on rotations shift together. And if a step goes wrong: Ctrl+Z undoes it.

Billing

From rotation to invoice, without retyping

Every rotation already carries its billing with it. After the check, the invoices are created from the rotation, individually or in bulk. If you wish, they go out automatically a set number of days before the rotation ends. If the rotation changes beforehand, the draft is recalculated, as long as nobody has edited it by hand.

Plan the rotation

Single, recurring or alternating. The system shows conflicts and gaps.

Checked

Your team ticks off the rotation. Open points become tasks.

Invoice goes out

As a draft or directly as a PDF, automatically before the rotation ends if you wish.

Rotation planning in detail

What else is included

AI email and rotation are two parts of many. Everything else runs in the same software.

What we do not claim for Germany

For Austria, HerzensManagement maps additional fields such as Pflegestufe (the Austrian care level), Pflegegeld (the Austrian long-term care allowance) and SVNR (the Austrian social insurance number), and for Switzerland the GAV (Swiss collective labour agreement) weekly planning. German-specific fields such as the Pflegegrad (the German care grade) are not implemented as a dedicated feature. Master data, templates and reports can be adapted to your processes. Anything else your agency needs, we clarify in the demo appointment, before the contract and not after.

Prices you do not have to ask for.

From €7 per active client per month, full package €11. No setup fee, no minimum size, the same prices across the entire DACH region.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI send emails on its own?
No. The AI sorts, summarises and suggests text. Emails are sent only by a person on your team, after a confirmation. If the AI is missing facts such as an appointment or a price, it inserts a placeholder instead of making something up.
Which mailbox can be connected?
Any mailbox with IMAP and SMTP, including your existing agency address. For Gmail and Outlook, an app password is enough. The password is stored encrypted.
Which data does the AI get to see?
The email itself, the previous thread and, if you choose a contact as context, a fixed selection of contact fields. Care assessments, bank details and rates are not sent to the AI. Each agency's data stays separate.
How much manual work is left in rotation planning?
Follow-on rotations are created automatically from the start date and rotation length, and open-ended series extend themselves. The system shows conflicts and unfilled days, invoices are created from the rotation and, if you wish, go out automatically a few days before the rotation ends. What remains manual is the decision about who travels to whom and when.
Are there German-specific fields such as the Pflegegrad?
Not as a dedicated feature. AI email and rotation planning work regardless of the country, and master data, templates and reports can be adapted to your processes. We do not claim German regulatory features as long as they are not built in. What your agency needs, we clarify in the demo, before the contract.
How much does HerzensManagement cost in Germany?
The same prices as in the rest of the DACH region: €7 per active client per month in the base package, €11 in the full package with all four modules. No setup fee, no minimum size.
Can I migrate data from my current software?
Yes. We migrate client files, caregivers, contracts, documents and the invoice history free of charge, usually within 48 hours of receiving your data.
