Solo practice has a particular shape: you're the therapist, the admin, the bookkeeper, and the receptionist. The 6pm-to-9pm shift after the last client is for catching up on notes, planning tomorrow, and chasing referrals. Carelyt is set up to take a real chunk out of that block.
Set up once, save every week
Spend an hour up front and you'll claw it back inside two weeks. Add your services, set your weekly target hours, switch on the pattern that matches your week (Mon-Fri 8 hours, or whatever yours is), and pin your home address. Now every visit you book has a sensible default frequency and the route planner knows where to start.
Use the public referral link
Every team gets a /refer/{token} URL. Email it to GPs, schools, and parents who refer in. You stop being the inbox; submissions land in your Waitlist with the referrer's notes attached.
Plan your week on Sunday night
Open the Schedule, look at the week, and ask: which days are too thin? Where are the holes? Reschedule cancellations into the gaps. Five minutes of planning on Sunday saves twenty minutes of triage on Monday.
Start the day on My Day
Open My Day from your phone before you leave home. The visits are in route order. Click on each card to see the address, contact name, and the goals you flagged on the client. You're driving, not deciding.
Watch utilisation, not hours
Insights shows your billable hours against the target you set. If you set 5 hours a day and you keep landing 3.5, the gap is the problem you can solve — too much driving, too many no-shows, gaps between visits. Each has a different fix.
