Mable is an Australian online two-sided marketplace that directly connects people needing aged care or disability support with independent support workers in their local community. Consumers choose their own workers and negotiate terms, while Mable collects fees on transactions: 7.95% added to the client’s payment and 10% deducted from the worker’s invoiced amount, bypassing traditional agency overhead. This model enables potentially higher pay for workers and lower costs for clients. The platform serves older Australians, NDIS participants, and private clients, and also offers Business Solutions by Mable to simplify care coordination for other organizations. By facilitating a community-driven, consumer-directed care marketplace, Mable aims to expand access to personalized, flexible home care in Australia.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • June 2026 support app and instant booking reduce friction and increase booking velocity.
  • July 2025 Can-do Guides with NOVA broaden brand reach across disability audiences.
  • General Atlantic’s capital and 2026 IPO exploration support expansion and acquisition optionality.

What critics are saying

  • ACCC forced Mable’s June 2025 undertaking over unfair terms, exposing deeper compliance scrutiny.
  • A July 2025 sale rumour and April 2026 IPO talk signal ownership uncertainty.
  • NDIS reforms or worker reclassification can collapse the marketplace model and erase Mable’s take-rate.

What makes Mable unique

  • Mable’s two-sided marketplace connects clients directly with independent local support workers.
  • June 2026 app launch adds instant booking, messaging, video calls, and compliance tools.
  • Business Solutions by Mable extends the marketplace into enterprise care coordination workflows.
