Caragon

Caragon, founded in 2015 by Tony Rudden and Garron Mosley, provides automated data solutions, primarily for the healthcare sector. Initially a general data solutions provider, the company shifted its focus to the UK dental market, which now constitutes the majority of its business. Caragon was acquired by Agilio Software on May 4, 2023, to enhance Agilio's product portfolio with data management and integration capabilities.

The company specializes in extracting, transforming, and delivering data from various sources, including databases, Excel, PDF, and specialized systems like EPOS. Its core offerings for the dental sector include Automated Associate Pay, Finance Automations, and Dental Dashboards. The CARAGON FLEX online system automates the complex payroll processes for associate dentists, which can reduce monthly processing time by up to 90%. This system is used to pay over 10,000 associate dentists monthly. The platform integrates with practice management systems, the NHS, insurance providers, and accounting software to reduce manual data entry and increase accuracy.

Caragon's business model is centered on providing software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions that help dental service organizations (DSOs) and dental groups to centralize data, standardize processes, and improve scalability. By automating financial processes and providing data-driven dashboards, Caragon helps businesses eliminate manual spreadsheets and gain insights to drive growth. The acquisition by Agilio Software is intended to accelerate Caragon's growth in Europe, combining their technologies to create more comprehensive, automated management solutions for the dental industry.
