Ally Cares awarded Highly Commended at HTN Now Awards 2025/26 for AI Solution of the Year

We’re delighted that Ally Cares has been awarded Highly Commended in the AI Solution of the Year category at the HTN Now Awards 2025/26, recognising the application of its AI-driven resident monitoring technology in care settings.

The HTN Now Awards highlight health and care technologies that are being applied in real-world environments to address complex challenges across the sector. This year’s AI Solution of the Year category attracted strong competition, reflecting the growing role of artificial intelligence across health and social care.

The recognition acknowledges our focus on how AI can be used to support care delivery in practice, particularly at night, where teams often work with limited visibility, high risk and significant pressure.

“This recognition matters because it acknowledges the role technology can play when it’s designed around real care practice. Ally exists to give care teams clearer, earlier insight at night — not to replace judgement, but to support it. Being Highly Commended in such a competitive category recognises the importance of AI that works quietly in the background, enabling care teams to do what they do best.”

Recognition in a competitive category

The AI Solution of the Year category brought together a wide range of technologies addressing challenges across health and care systems. This recognition reflects how our technology is being used day to day in care homes, supporting safer night-time care through improved visibility and more informed decision-making.

In our submission, we focused on the application of privacy-first AI to support night teams, helping move away from routine checks and towards more targeted, needs-led oversight. Evidence from care homes and system-level pilots demonstrated how clearer night-time insight can contribute to calmer environments, reduced risk and improved continuity of care.

Enabling the work of care teams

The award builds on Ally Cares’ wider collaboration with care providers, local systems and sector bodies, including its role as a research partner to Care England on The Sleep Gap report. Across this work, the emphasis has remained consistent: technology should strengthen care delivery without adding burden or intrusion.
