Binti helps social workers license foster families faster with Claude

1. SPSpeaker0:00

   I've been a social worker for a total of almost 11 years. I genuinely love my job. You know, I get to help people.

2. SPSpeaker0:10

   You go to social work to meet with families and kids and make a difference, and there's a lot of paperwork that needs to take place. Making it easier for social workers to be able to do less paperwork is always the goal.

3. SPSpeaker0:21

   There are about 400,000 children in foster care in the U.S., and families would fall through the cracks. We built Binti to be a streamlined way for social workers to license families more quickly to foster and adopt children. We chose Claude to integrate with because Anthropic takes security and trust incredibly seriously, and it's really important that agencies trust how we're handling their data. Social workers are able to record the meeting with the family, and then Claude fills out a draft of the paperwork for them, so it takes social workers a couple of hours instead of a couple of weeks.

   Most of my week was spent doing paperwork. Everything was done by hand, and it's a lot more hard to engage in conversation because you're so busy looking down and writing. So that's what I like about it because it frees up my mind to really be engaging. Thank you for answering before I asked.

   Our timelines have definitely shrunk. We approve more families. It happens quicker. Our longest times were about 300 days, but now we're, we're under 100. Families get the support that they need, and it's a more streamlined process.

6. SPSpeaker1:30

   Social workers do really important work. They're helping other people, and they're not as used to people coming and trying to help them with their job. [laughing] By using Claude, we can license more families to be foster and adoptive families more quickly for these children, and I think there's huge potential for Claude to save significant administrative time across other government agencies.

   We all need help from time to time a- and that's just the truth of it, so I'm grateful for technology. I mean, it's just, it, it's amazing. [instrumental music]
