Where Adelo fits

Your HCM knows who works here. Adelo knows how the unit is running.

Adelo isn’t a replacement for your system of record, and it isn’t a personal scheduling app. It’s the layer in between — where the shift actually happens.

A personal calendar app

Knows your shifts. Built around one nurse’s schedule and career, not around the unit that has to be covered tonight.

Adelo

Knows the unit. Who’s on, what’s uncovered, who’s owed a conversation, what’s due, what the numbers say — and the workflows to act on all of it.

An HCM or payroll system

Knows the organization. Who is employed, what they’re paid, what policy says. Essential, and not something a charge nurse opens at 3 a.m.

Adelo doesn’t replace your HCM, payroll, or system of record — those stay exactly where they are. What it does replace is the scheduling app, the swap thread, the group text, and the spreadsheet it currently takes to run a single shift.

The shift, start to finish

Not a feature list. The moments that actually make a unit run.

Anyone can ship a menu of modules. Adelo is built around the things every unit does every day — and makes each one calmer.

01Starting a shiftFree

Everything about today, the moment they clock in.

No hunting across a scheduling app, a group text, and a whiteboard. Staff open Adelo and see today’s shift, who’s on with them, what needs attention, and a kudos already waiting — in one tap.

Today
Three apps and a text thread just to know who’s on.
With Adelo
One screen: your shift, your team, your next move.
02Filling a staffing gapPremium

Coverage holes close before they become a crisis.

A gap opens on nights. Instead of blasting forty texts and hoping, post the open shift once — the people who actually want it pick it up, and you simply approve. Coverage by role and shift stays live in front of you.

Today
Mass-text the whole unit and wait, uncovered.
With Adelo
Post once; the right people opt in; you approve.
03Recognizing great workFree + Premium

The 2 a.m. save the whole unit finally gets to see.

Recognition in Adelo is meaning made visible — a specific kudos from a charge nurse, a keepsake beacon for a DAISY moment, seen by the whole unit. Free for everyone. Premium adds Pulse Points and a reward store the team redeems for perks they chose. Either way: not confetti for logging in — the real reasons people stay.

Today
A quiet thank-you no one else ever hears.
With Adelo
Kudos that stick — seen by the team, felt by the person.

Adelo Premium

The command center for the people who carry the unit.

Everything your team gets for free — plus the operational layer a manager, director, or executive runs the floor on. Not more features. More control, more clarity, and a culture that shows up in retention.

  • A live staffing command center
    Productivity index, hours per patient day, the full hours story, and coverage — drill any chart by role, shift, person, or pay period, then export a board-ready PDF from your phone.
  • Executive HR answers in one tap
    Tenure, turnover, 90-day retention, first-year turnover, hires vs separations — computed live from your roster.
  • AI that works for the unit
    Beam answers analytics questions in plain language; Keeper drafts cited, survey-ready policies — humans always review and sign.
  • Approvals without the chaos
    Swaps, overtime, and time-off route to the right person and clear in a tap — not a text thread.
Implementation

Live in days — not an IT project.

1

Set up your unit

We stand up your team, roster, and roles. One shared code — no per-person setup, no procurement marathon.

2

Your team claims their spot

Staff enter the code and their ID, you approve with a tap, and their schedule and history are already waiting.

3

Run the floor on Adelo

Coverage, approvals, attendance, and recognition move into one place — with support through the first rollout and beyond.

Culture & retention

Recognition that means something — because it names the real thing.

Turnover is the most expensive problem in healthcare, and it’s rarely about pay alone — it’s about feeling unseen. Adelo makes the good work visible: a specific kudos, a keepsake beacon, the whole unit watching. This isn’t badges for logging in. It’s the reasons people stay, made durable.

Specific kudos, not confetti

Recognition tied to a real moment on a real shift — from peers and from leaders — so it actually lands. Free for every unit.

Keepsake beacons & honors

Milestone and honor beacons, including DAISY moments — the ones people screenshot and keep.

Culture leaders can measure

Pulse Points, a reward store, and Pulse Checks — Premium tools that connect recognition to the outcome that matters: who stays.

Trust & security

Built with healthcare in mind — and honest about where we are.

Role-based access, secure authentication, and data-minimizing workflows, so the right people see the right things and nothing more. We don’t claim certifications we haven’t earned — we tell you plainly what’s in place today and what’s on the roadmap.

  • Role-based access and secure sign-in
  • Data minimization and controlled, least-privilege access
  • No unearned SOC 2 or HITRUST claims — and no “HIPAA certified” badge, because HHS doesn’t issue one
License and CE records — yours, exportable, in one place
“I built Adelo because my own critical-care unit deserved one calm place to run the shift — not ten disconnected tools and a group text at 2 a.m. Every workflow in it started as a problem I lived on the floor.”
Adam DeLeon · Founder & Chief Executive Officer

What the group text actually costs

Adelo is early and has no results of its own to publish yet. The size of the problem it exists for is not in question.
