What Nursing Operations Teams Are Seeing
Staffing Gaps Are Predictable. The Response Doesn't Have to Be Reactive.
Most coverage emergencies are visible in the data 24-48 hours before they hit. The problem is that no one looks until the hole is already there.
See the PlatformForecast. Alert. Act. Before the Gap.
Knit reads your scheduling system, EMR feeds, and historical patterns to generate unit-level coverage forecasts, then surfaces alerts in time for your team to act.
Read-only connectors pull from your scheduling platform, EMR ADT feeds, and payroll data. No workflow changes. Most integrations complete in under two weeks.
The Intelligence Layer models census demand against scheduled supply 24-72 hours out. Each shift gets a coverage score and a predicted gap probability.
Nursing leadership sees unit-level alerts with recommended actions: float pool suggestions, agency request lead time, and which shifts need attention first.
Built for the Units That Can't Go Understaffed
From ICU ratio compliance to ED surge response, Knit surfaces the right intelligence for each unit type.
Model 24-36 hour census forecasts against nurse-to-patient ratio requirements before a breach becomes unavoidable.

Learn moreWhat Early-Access Participants Are Saying
"We had been patching coverage gaps the morning of for as long as I can remember. With Knit, we started seeing the same gaps 24 to 36 hours earlier. That lead time alone changed what we could do about them."
"Our float pool was already good. What we lacked was enough runway to use it. The coverage alerts gave our charge nurses the head start they needed before the only option left was agency at premium rates."
