We help multilingual American families find the Medicare, Medicaid, and benefits programs that already exist for their aging parents — in the language they speak at home. Free, always.
The problem
America has invested billions building Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, and caregiver support programs. They exist. They're funded. And for millions of multilingual families, they're completely invisible — because they can't be found, understood, or navigated in the language the family actually speaks.
Discharge instructions in English. A parent who speaks only Hindi. A home health authorization delayed nine days while a family tries to navigate a language they never learned.
Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, STAR+PLUS, Low Income Subsidy — each requires a separate application, a separate agency, separate documentation. Families who qualify are left without benefits they've already earned.
When families can't coordinate care across language barriers, the ER becomes the default. At $8,000–$12,000 per avoidable visit, this isn't just a family problem — it's a $47 billion annual system problem.
How it works
Type your question in English or Spanish. No jargon required. Ask it the way you'd ask a trusted friend.
KINARE AI searches official CMS, Medicaid, and government databases to find what applies to your family's specific situation — then explains it in plain language.
Every answer cites the exact government document it came from — so you can verify, share with a doctor, or bring to an agency appointment.
Every response includes a direct path to a human benefits counselor — free, within 24 hours. KINARE AI helps you understand. A real person helps you enroll.
Real families. Real situations.
Her father had a stroke in February. His discharge paperwork was in English. She spent 11 hours navigating Texas Medicaid by phone while he missed nine days of prescribed physical therapy. None of this was clinically necessary. All of it was bureaucratically caused.
His mother Rosa speaks only Spanish. When her insulin prescription was denied, the denial letter arrived in English. Carlos never learned that the Low Income Subsidy would have covered her supplies at no cost — a program she had qualified for for two years.
His parents arrived from Guangzhou in 2023. His mother has early-stage dementia. Wei doesn't know his parents qualify for Medicaid, doesn't know about the Chinese-language senior center two blocks away, and doesn't know his employer offers caregiver counseling. Every resource exists. None of them reached him.
What we cover
We are starting focused and growing responsibly. Phase 1 serves Spanish and English-speaking families in Austin and Houston, Texas — with Hindi and national expansion planned for Phase 2.
I am a first-generation American. My mother speaks Sindhi. I have personally navigated the language barriers, the insurance labyrinths, and the invisible grief of being the bridge between two worlds. KINARE AI is not a product built by someone who studied this problem. It is built by someone who lived it.

We are conducting structured interviews with 10 multilingual family caregivers in Austin and Houston this summer. Share your caregiving experience and help shape what KINARE AI becomes. No commitment required. 30 minutes of your time.
KINARE AI is a Phase 1 prototype competing in the HHS ACL Caregiver AI Prize Competition (deadline July 31, 2026). Early access families will be prioritized for the Phase 2 paid pilot program.
