The client
A dental payments and card-services company that works with thousands of independent dental practices. Its founder kept hearing the same complaint from owners: the SaaS tools running their payments, analytics, and revenue cycle treated them as hostages to their own data.
The challenge
Build a genuinely enterprise-grade RCM and payments platform that serves a single independent practice and a large DSO equally well — multi-tenant, secure, and able to connect practices across completely different PMSs. It had to handle payments, automate accounts receivable, surface practice analytics, and pass the security bar that HIPAA-regulated dental data demands.
- Independent practices and DSOs needed to run on one platform, each with its own data fully isolated.
- Practices lived on completely different PMSs that had to be connected without manual back-office work.
- Payments, A/R, and analytics were fragmented across tools that locked owners out of their own data.
- The platform had to clear HIPAA and SOC 2 to win enterprise dental deals.
What we built
An enterprise dental SaaS platform, built end to end and run on an ongoing basis:
- Flexible payments — multiple payment modes with automated write-back to the PMS; save-on-file, virtual or physical, and a "Pay Now" button embedded on each practice's own website.
- A/R automation — automated outreach campaigns to recover outstanding balances, plus easy patient payment plans.
- Practice analytics — KPI dashboards, custom report builders, Excel export, and a data-warehouse feed for deeper analysis.
- Practice assessment — a tool to gauge a practice's financial and operational health before a DSO acquires it.
- Practice chaining — a chain admin can connect to multiple independent practices across heterogeneous PMSs, with no manual back-office work.
- Enterprise security — taken through SOC 2 Type II and HIPAA certification, on owned Azure infrastructure, with strict PII/PHI isolation so nothing leaks between tenants.
We owned the whole stack: architecture, the full SDLC, the certifications, payment-gateway integration, the data warehouse, QA, customer success — even go-to-market support — on a retainer model with no cost overruns.
