The US senior's care market is expected to grow to $ 100 billion (over 10 trillion yen) as of 2016 and to $ 225 billion (over 23 trillion yen) in 2024.

On the other hand, the Japanese care market is 8 as of 2014, according to Deloitee survey..6 trillion yen.18 in 2025.It seems to expand to about 7 trillion yen.The US market is about three times the population with Japan, but this area seems to be about 30%.

The US senior market is largely divided into three fields: marketplace, caregiver dispatch, and support tools.

As a major in the marketplace model, "Care."Com" is listed.It is a service that matches the caregiver and the caregiver (family). We perform background checks thoroughly and put human resources with a certain quality or higher on the marketplace to match high -quality human resources.

The famous startups that handle caregivers are "HONOR", which is invested by Andreessen Horowitz.HONOR is good at it because it is not possible to beat the marketplace with a mere dispatching business alone.For example, if the user is Chinese, we maintain high service accuracy, such as matching a caregiver who can speak Chinese at high speeds from among our contracted personnel.

In addition, it is a service model that holds down from Kawakami (selected provider to provide services) to monitoring what services are provided in the house.He seems to be aiming for a breakthrough on the question of the 600 -US visiting nursing care agent in the United States.

Care.COM has the value of empowering a caregiver who is active by individuals.On the other hand, HONOR has completed the nursing care business in -house and has an attitude to discharge the existing player market.

However, they are only for "nursing care".CARILOOP, which recently announced $ 15 million procurement, offers a comprehensive care service that does not stop nursing and undertakes related tasks.The company supports task management for nursing care users using remote care coaches and cloud platforms.

The troubles of nursing care users cannot be solved by temporary care services.Every day, tasks such as health and asset management occur.But caregivers do not help financial tasks.It was necessary to have a priority while checking these tasks with the whole family.

CARILOP will manage all kinds of tasks related to senior care while the remote operator consults with video or audio telephone.The company has established a market position as a support tool that will help you to consult from the selection of a nursing care provider.

In addition, the existing nursing care services providers can use CARILOOP together to respond to more customer needs.We also manage back-end tasks as "add-on" and "Extension" services in the so-called senior care market.

The fee is about $ 599 in 6 months.The scale is relatively easy to be introduced to both the provider and the family who are already active in the market.These support type SaaS may have market opportunities to be introduced in Japan one after another.
