Vendor checklist

Questions worth asking any vendor

A short RFP-style checklist for practice systems. Use it with us or anyone else. Good discovery beats glossy demos.

How this works

Questions that raise the bar

RFP-style prompts a serious practice should ask any builder, including us.

  • Not SaaS. Custom systems scoped after discovery.
  • Not guaranteed ROI. Outputs help you decide if a build chat is worth it.
  • Demo for proof of shape. Try the portal, then book if it matches.

Illustrative only. Custom builds scoped after discovery. Not guaranteed ROI and not a SaaS catalogue.
