We built Curor because we needed it and it didn't exist.
It started as a booking form on a care provider website in Devon. It became the platform that runs care organisations in 37 countries. Here's how that happened.
Simple. We want care organisations to run properly.
Not just be managed, but actually run. Where the bookings happen automatically, the contracts sign themselves, the payments collect themselves, and the staff show up informed. Where the owner has space to think about the business instead of being buried inside it.
Every feature we build, every improvement we make, every decision we take about what Curor does next comes back to that. Does this help a care provider run their business better? If yes, we build it. If not, we don't.
We're not trying to be the biggest business management platform in the world. We're trying to be the one that care providers trust completely.
Chris Collins started South West care providers in 2013.
Not because he had a grand plan for building a software company. Because he'd been building websites for care organisations as a developer, kept seeing the same problems everywhere, and figured he could do it himself. He bought a care home, started taking bookings, and discovered very quickly that running the business was nothing like delivering the events.
The enquiries, the contracts, the payments, the staff, the follow-ups. All of it manual. All of it eating time. All of it pulling attention away from the part of the job he actually enjoyed.
He tried everything available at the time. Booking tools built for salons. CRMs built for agencies. Scheduling software built for hospitality. None of it fit. Every tool was borrowed from a different industry and bent into shape, and the joins showed every time a booking came in that didn't behave the way the software expected.
So he built something that would.
- 1A basic booking form
- 2Availability checks
- 3Automated confirmations
- 4Payment handling
- 5Contract generation
- 6Staff assignment
By the time the pieces were assembled, it wasn't a booking form anymore. It was a platform. And other care providers started asking if they could use it too.

Thirteen years, one obsession
Tap a year to see what happened.
v2 lands
Curor version 2 launches. 37 countries. 14 languages. 6,500 operators. 700k bookings processed. $500+ million payments collected. One platform, still built by people who run a care organisation themselves.
Most software companies build for a market. We built for a problem we had personally.
That distinction matters more than it sounds. When you've actually chased a contract through your own inbox, texted your own staff at midnight, and done your own finances in a spreadsheet held together by hope, you build differently. You know which problems actually hurt and which ones just look important on a feature list.
Every decision in Curor, from the way a proposal gets sent to the way a staff member clocks in on event day, comes from that place. Not from a product manager's assumptions about what care providers need. From operators who know, because they are one.
We sat with 30+ operators
Before we wrote a line of v1, we went through their workflows in detail.
We asked the real questions
What takes the most time? What causes the most stress? What do you wish happened automatically?
We never stopped asking
Every feature in v2 exists because operators asked, described the problem, and confirmed we solved it.
Thirteen years. One job.
v2 is not v1 with a fresh coat of paint.
It's a full rebuild, done properly, informed by everything we learned running version 1 for over a decade with 6,500 operators across 37 countries.
We know what the gaps were. We know what operators needed that version 1 couldn't deliver. We know what frustrated people and what they loved. Version 2 is the answer to all of that, built on infrastructure that will carry Curor forward for the next decade rather than the next few years.
It took longer than we said it would. Good software usually does. But we'd rather ship something that works properly than something that ships on schedule.
Built by care providers. Trusted by care providers.
Used by 6,500 care providers across 37 countries. If you run a care organisation and you're not on Curor, try it. 14 days, no card required, most operators are set up and taking bookings the same day.
