AtlasCare vs CareSmartz360
CareSmartz360 is an enterprise-grade platform built for large, multi-location agencies. Atlas is built for the private pay agency you're running today.
CareSmartz360 is an AI-powered home care management platform trusted by more than 1,000 agencies, with a feature set engineered for scale: 45+ state EVV integrations, multi-payer billing, AI-based caregiver retention tools, franchise management, and a multilingual caregiver app. In Texas, CareSmartz360 integrates with HHAeXchange — the state-designated EVV aggregator required for STAR+PLUS and other Texas Medicaid programs — and supports TMHP EDI claims submission.

Atlas Care Software is built for a different customer: small and launching private pay agencies that need scheduling, GPS-verified visits, and invoicing without enterprise complexity or per-client pricing.

Why agencies choose Atlas
Pricing that doesn't grow with every client you add
CareSmartz360 prices by client count — at approximately $10/client/month, your software bill grows with every new client you win. Atlas is $199/mo flat with no per-client fees, so your cost is predictable whether you have four clients or forty. No surprise bill at the end of a good month.
Private pay workflows without enterprise overhead
CareSmartz360's feature set — franchise management, multilingual apps, AI retention tools, 45+ EVV integrations across states — is built for multi-location networks managing Medicaid, VA, and multiple payers at scale. For a small Texas agency billing private pay families, Atlas covers the operations you run every day and skips the infrastructure you'll never touch.

CareSmartz360's onboarding is engineered for enterprise agencies with complex configurations. Atlas sets up in a day: add your caregivers in the morning, schedule clients in the afternoon. Our team migrates your data free on the Growth plan, and your first shift can run the next morning.
