Where We're Still Catching Up

We believe in radical transparency. Here's what our competitors have that we don't — yet.

Native Mobile AppOn Roadmap

MocDoc, Practo, and HealthPlix have Android/iOS apps. We have a responsive web app that works on mobile, but no native app yet.

Telemedicine / Video ConsultOn Roadmap

3 competitors offer built-in video consultations. We plan to integrate this in a future release.

1,500+ Customer BaseGrowing

MocDoc has 1,500+ installations. We are a new entrant focused on getting our first 100 reference hospitals.

ABDM HIP CertificationQ2 2026

Our ABDM integration is fully built but HIP certification is in progress. Bahmni and MocDoc claim certification.

Offline ModeUnder Evaluation

Bahmni works in low-connectivity environments. We are cloud-only currently.

650+ Specialty TemplatesBuilding

HealthPlix has deep specialty templates. We have basic templates and are expanding the library.
