About Tactis

Built by the people who live this work.

Most compliance software is built by technologists who’ve never read a 2567, or by clinicians who can’t build software. Tactis is built by both. The team pairs real AI engineering with decades on the skilled-nursing compliance frontline, plus the business sense to put it in your hands.

Why we built it

The expertise a facility needs is scarce, expensive, and walking out the door.

Survey readiness has always come down to a handful of people who’ve simply seen it all, and that knowledge is hard to hire, costly to keep, and gone the day they leave. When enforcement is rising and deficiencies are climbing, that’s a dangerous thing to depend on.

So we built Tactis to hold that expertise in software: the manual, the pathways surveyors use, and your own regulations, in a system that answers from the source and shows its work. It does the work for you and proves every answer.

We’re not trying to do everything. We’re going deep in one place, skilled nursing, so the answer in your newest building is as sound as the one your best administrator would give.

What we believe

The principles the product is built on.

Show your work.

An answer you can’t verify is a liability. Every Tactis answer carries the regulation it came from.

Depth over breadth.

We go deep in skilled nursing instead of dabbling in ten industries. The knowledge center, the workflows, and the judgment are all specific to this work.

Always your call.

Tactis drafts and sources; your team decides and signs off. Nothing is filed on your behalf.

Built with you.

We build with our customers in the room, which is why we started with a founding cohort.

The team

Three people, all three sides of the problem.

Ben Johnson

Co-Founder · AI & Software

Ben founded Lobi Software Studio where he’s spent years building production AI systems (retrieval pipelines, agents, and custom software) with a focus on healthcare. He’s also authored a research paper proposing a framework for human-AI communication, arguing that AI’s failures stem less from raw capability than from a mismatch in how people and machines make meaning. That conviction is why he built Tactis to find the regulation first and show its source. The retrieval engine behind every answer is his.

Jennifer Kelley

Co-Founder · Skilled Nursing Operations

Jennifer has spent 25 years in skilled nursing as a licensed nursing-home administrator (LNHA, MSW). She runs Ridgecrest Rehab & Skilled Nursing Center, an AHCA/NCAL Bronze National Quality Award recipient, where she took over a struggling building and turned it around, and she’s been named an Emergency Preparedness Champion of Long Term Care by the Georgia Health Care Association. She’s been on the receiving end of every 2567, and Tactis is built around what she wished she’d had.

Sherri owns Abella Health, a Florida healthcare-consulting firm built on actually launching and scaling care programs, including value-based care, chronic-care management, and population health, instead of only advising on them. A former hospice administrator with a master’s in health care informatics, she’s spent her career where clinical practice meets operations and technology. At Tactis she leads sales and serves as a clinical consultant on the product, keeping it grounded in how care is really delivered, day to day.
