Overview

What it is

CheckinBee will check in with your loved one each and every day via text message. If a check-in is missed, their designated care circle will be automatically notified to check on them. Two week free trial and then $10/m.

Intent

I need it when

Older adult living alone wants daily reassurance that someone will notice if something goes wrong

CheckinBee sends a simple daily text at a chosen time. User replies 'yes' or 'ok' to confirm they're okay. If no response within a customizable window (default 1 hour), designated family or caregivers are automatically alerted via text, ensuring someone knows within hours if help is needed.

Family caregiver wants peace of mind that parent's safety is monitored without requiring smartphone or app download

CheckinBee works on any phone with SMS capability—no smartphone, app, or internet required. Setup takes under 5 minutes. Works across US, Canada, and UK. 14-day free trial requires no credit card, allowing risk-free testing.

Caregiver needs flexible check-in scheduling with multiple daily reminders and larger care circle coordination

Family Plus plan ($20/month) enables up to 3 check-ins per day with independent schedules, up to 8 care circle members, and flexible check-in windows. Care circle members can coordinate responses if a check-in is missed.

Care manager or senior living organization wants to offer daily welfare checks to residents and manage all check-ins from one dashboard

CheckinBee Professional allows organizations to view and manage all resident check-ins from a single dashboard, automating daily text-based welfare checks and alert coordination across multiple residents and staff.

Adult child or caregiver living far away needs to check on aging parent daily without intrusive phone calls

CheckinBee provides automated daily text check-ins that respect independence while bridging distance. Caregiver receives immediate SMS alert if parent misses check-in, enabling quick action (calling neighbors, contacting services, or requesting welfare check) without requiring daily phone calls.

Drop

Not a fit when

  • User requires emergency medical response or 911 replacement—CheckinBee is designed for daily reassurance, not emergency dispatch
  • User needs real-time location tracking or continuous monitoring—service only sends daily text check-ins at scheduled times
  • User cannot receive or send text messages or lacks any phone with SMS capability
  • User requires in-person welfare checks or physical assistance—CheckinBee alerts care circle but does not dispatch help
  • User lives in countries outside US, Canada, or UK—service availability is geographically limited
  • User needs multiple check-ins with complex medical alert integration—professional version required for organizations, not individual use
