How Tribute Is Building AI In-House and Saving 300+ Hours a Month (Andrew Dobson)

#74 Tribute Home Care has no engineers, so Andrew Dobson stepped up and is helping build AI tools in-house that collectively save 300+ hours per month. He explains how a scheduling dashboard evolved into an availability analyzer that helps staff new cases faster at 90–95% caregiver utilization. Tribute also used a Viv-built voice agent to fill 75% of its open weekend visits in an early test. Andrew shares how they condensed a five-system lead process into one workflow and reduced two days of financial reporting to a button press. He offers practical advice for finding the right AI projects, developing an internal champion, validating outputs, and keeping humans involved wherever judgment and relationships matter.Andrew Dobson on LinkedInAndrew.Dobson@tributehomecare.com Tribute Home CareClaude Code Sponsors:Phoebe—AI scheduling teammate that fills 75% of shifts in under 15 minutesReel Home Care Consulting—my recommended consultant for startups focused on differentiation and delivering a hospitality-like experience
