You shouldn't have to hold the whole map in your head.
Wayfound is the family-controlled navigator for families raising a child with a disability. It connects your child's records across programs, documents, and deadlines, then helps turn that evidence into applications, letters, and appeals. So you can handle one step at a time without rebuilding the story.
Built by parents who live this. No credit card to start.
Inside Wayfound
One parent-readable path across services, documents, deadlines, and forms.
01Journey
One screen showing what your child has now, what unlocks next, and the single best move to make today.
02Eligibility
See the programs your child likely qualifies for, each with the rule behind it, including which services are safe regardless of immigration status.
03Documents
Upload a denial and see the exact hours and dollars it costs you. Wayfound reads across your child's documents, the IEP, the notice, the evaluation, and surfaces the gaps and money a single page hides.
04IEP Workspace
Walk into the IEP meeting prepared: read the plan page by page, draft your input from the record, and follow up in writing afterward.
05Deadlines
The appeal windows and renewal dates that come out of your notices, each with the next step attached, before they become a scramble.
06Applications
Wayfound drafts the clinical answers on your SOC forms and doctor packets, in the language the county needs, from a plain conversation with you.

Ask the question you are afraid to get wrong. Every serious answer shows its confidence, cites its sources, and lets you tap a citation to see the exact page of your own document it came from.

The maze
The help exists. No one hands you the map.
Program after program, each with its own agency, its own forms, its own deadlines, its own acronyms. Miss one and no one tells you. The whole system ends up living in your head.
“I spend more time fighting for services than I do with my child. I don't even know what we're missing.”

How Wayfound works
The map, the coach, and the proof, in one place.
Tell Wayfound about your child once. It keeps the map of what is in place and what comes next, coaches you through each step with the exact words when you need them, and shows the proof behind every answer. One journey, not five disconnected logins.
01
Tell us about your child
Age, state, diagnosis, services, and the documents you already have. Wayfound keeps the questions practical.
02
See the services to check
Get a personalized roadmap across IEP, Regional Center, IHSS, SSI, Medi-Cal, and more.
03
Decode the paperwork
Upload an IEP, notice, or denial letter and see what it means, what is missing, and what to do next.
04
Keep every service moving
Track applications, deadlines, evidence, renewals, and appeals without rebuilding the whole story each time.
When a step calls for writing, Wayfound drafts the exact words for you: doctor packets, appeal letters, IEP concern letters, and the official IHSS forms. It completes the forms it can and tracks each application through to approval, so nothing stalls in a pile on the counter.
Families are turning records into completed casework.
Wayfound is live, and families are already using the connected record to prepare applications, supporting evidence, and written advocacy.
16
IHSS and Protective Supervision applications filed
Three have been approved, and thirteen remain pending.
160+
Appeal, advocacy, and supplemental letters prepared
Each can draw from the family's records and the program context already in Wayfound.
One record
Evidence reused across systems
IEPs, evaluations, notices, denials, and family observations stay connected to the child instead of one transaction.
“This is a beautiful put together app. Everything is all wrapped in a bow. I can ask questions, upload my documents, it helps remind me, it's all in one.”

Operating counts as of August 2026. Pending applications are not approvals, and individual outcomes vary.
Built to be trusted
Records that stay yours, and answers you can check.
How Wayfound handles your family's records, and how it shows its work behind every answer.
Your records stay yours.
Never used to train external AI models. Encrypted at rest, and yours to delete anytime.
Rules are checked by advocates.
The rules in Wayfound's knowledge base are reviewed by disability advocates against official sources. Serious answers cite the source and show confidence.
Safe regardless of immigration status.
Where a service is open to all residents, like California's Regional Centers under the Lanterman Act, it is stated plainly on the program card, right where you decide.
Information, not advice.
Said out loud up front: this is information to act on, not legal or medical advice.
Why we're building this
We built Wayfound because we needed it ourselves.
We're parents of an autistic 11-year-old in San Diego. We've navigated IHSS protective supervision, Regional Center services, IEP meetings, and Medi-Cal, often at 2am, often in tears, often feeling completely alone.
We learned the hard way that the system doesn't hand you what you're entitled to. You have to know it exists, know how to ask for it, and know when to fight for it. Wayfound is the tool we wish we'd had from day one.
