Founder & CEO @ 📝 The Easiest System for I/DD Providers. Ever. 🙏 Forbes 30u30 ➡️ over $2M ARR

[Daniel Caridi @ddcaridi]

Grateful to make this year's @Forbes 30 under 30 list.

We started Kibu in a tiny gym with 5 people and a dodgeball. Today it’s helping disability providers across the country deliver better care.

The recognition belongs to the Kibu team, disability providers who believed in us early, and the 1000s of individuals we serve every day.

Still Day 1.

Had the chance to speak at the last @TheShortlistNYC event hosted by @andruyeung along with 5 other NYC founders.

What an awesome event.

Highly recommend joining if you have the chance to attend one of these.

@TheShortlistNYC @kibuhq Such a great event

[The Shortlist NYC @TheShortlistNYC]

it started with 5 people, a tiny gym, and a dodgeball.

now it's in nearly every state in the country.

@ddcaridi presented at our March showcase on monday and his story is one of the most genuine ones we've heard on that stage.

@kibuhq is the vertical AI platform for disability service providers. 500+ on-demand classes, daily livestreams, and AI-powered documentation tools that help frontline staff spend less time on paperwork and more time with the people they serve. nearly all 50 states.

@Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Impact, 2026.

backed by Connecticut Innovations.

the kind of founder who isn't building for the press. he's building for the people who need it most.

(p.s. they're hiring!)
