A Schedule that Understands: Your Time Doesn't Start at the Visit.
Your workday isn't just the time spent with patients. It's the driving. The transitions. The time it takes to wrap up, get moving, and arrive ready for the next visit. Schedule Companion shows real travel time between home visits directly on your calendar, so you know when to leave, how tight your day is, and what a change will actually do to the rest of your schedule—before you commit.
Confidence Comes From Knowing When to Leave
Most calendars assume appointments exist in isolation. Therapists know better.
When travel time is invisible, you're forced to do mental math all day:
Can I fit this makeup in?
If I move this visit, will I still make it home on time?
Am I going to be rushing again?
That uncertainty creates stress—even when everything technically "fits."
I used to eyeball distances and guess. Then I'd be running late, calling families from the car to apologize. Now I see the travel time right on my calendar while I'm planning the week. If two visits are too tight, I know immediately—and I can fix it before it becomes a stressful day.

Know When to Leave, Every Time
Travel time isn't an afterthought.
Real Driving Routes, with Cushion
Based on average GPS travel data using actual road networks. Instead of a single number, you see a time range (e.g. 17–22 minutes) so your schedule accounts for traffic, weather, and route changes.
Visual Travel-Time Blocks
See travel time as a faded block between appointments on your calendar. Know at a glance when you need to wrap up.
Tight Schedule Warnings
When appointments are too close together, you'll see a warning. Adjust before you commit, not when you're already late.
Home Departure & Arrival
See travel from home to your first visit and from your last visit back home. Know exactly when your day really starts—and when it really ends.
Location Override for Mid-Day Trips
Heading home for lunch or stopping somewhere mid-day? Set a meeting with an address and travel calculations adjust automatically, but exclude from mileage calculations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are the travel time estimates?
The system provides a travel time range based on average GPS travel data from real road networks, not straight-line distance. This range gives you cushion for traffic variations and potential route changes from road closures. For example, you might see "15–20 minutes" instead of a single number. This helps you build realistic schedules with buffer time built in.
Does this use live traffic data?
Travel times are based on average GPS travel data and typical driving conditions, not real-time traffic. However, the system provides a realistic time range to account for variations in traffic and potential road closures. This keeps the system fast and reliable for planning ahead while still giving you realistic buffer time.
What if I need to go home mid-day for lunch?
You can schedule a series or one-off "meeting" with an address during your lunch time. This travel will adjust your schedule calculations but be excluded from mileage reports. This handles lunch breaks, errands, or other mid-day stops.
Can I see travel time from home to my first appointment?
Yes. Set your home address in settings, and the system calculates travel from home to your first appointment of the day, and from your last appointment back home. If you will be at a different address before or after your shift, that can be adjusted for the day to update travel calculations.
What happens if I move an appointment on my calendar?
Travel times recalculate instantly. Drag an appointment to a new time slot, and the travel blocks update in real-time. You can see if the new schedule works before you commit to it.
