Clinic+ vs Jane
Jane bills insurance and runs video appointments; Clinic+ answers your website and starts free. An honest account of what each one is for.
How to check this
Everything below about Jane was read from their own site on . Where something is not in the product we say it is not listed on the page we read, because that is what we know. Products change — if you find a difference, theirs is the page to believe.
What Jane is
Jane is practice management software aimed at health and wellness practices — their features page names physiotherapy, chiropractic, massage therapy, mental health, acupuncture and naturopathy. Scheduling, charting, billing including insurance, telehealth and payroll, with a well-earned reputation among allied health clinics.
Where Jane is the better product
Insurance billing, which we do not do at all
Jane submits claims and runs eligibility checks. Clinic+ records who the insurer is and nothing else — there is no claim, no eligibility, no remittance. If a meaningful share of your income arrives through insurers rather than from patients, this one line decides the comparison and there is no argument to make on our side.
Telehealth in the product
Video appointments are part of Jane. We have none — no video, no waiting room, nothing. If you see patients remotely, you would be running a second tool alongside us.
AI Scribe for the note itself
Jane offers an AI scribe as a paid add-on, aimed at the clinical note. Our AI sits at the other end of the visit — on your website, answering and booking. Both are useful and they are not the same tool; if the note is what takes your evening, theirs is the one aimed at your problem.
Where Clinic+ is different
You can start at nothing
Clinic+ has a free plan. Jane's pricing page lists three paid tiers and no free plan — its entry tier also caps appointments per month. There is a demo account available on request, which is a different thing from running your clinic on it.
An assistant on your own website
Ours answers visitors in the language they wrote in and books a real slot against the live calendar. Jane's site offers virtual assistants and receptionists — real people providing front desk help, which their page says plainly. Both solve "the phone keeps ringing"; one is staffed and one is software, and the difference in cost per conversation is the point.
Fewer things priced separately
Jane gates features by tier and prices several capabilities as add-ons — their pricing page lists telehealth, insurance billing, payroll and websites among them. We gate by plan too, and less finely. Neither approach is dishonest; it does mean the number you first see and the number you eventually pay are further apart in one of them.
Stock, and more than one branch
Consumables with purchase currency and FX kept, and branch-level stock and calendars. Neither is listed on Jane's features page.

“Not listed” means it does not appear on the pages linked above. It is a statement about those pages, not about what the product can be made to do.
Choose Jane if
You bill insurers, you run video appointments, or the clinical note is the centre of your day. Any one of those on its own is enough — we do not compete on the first two at all.
Choose Clinic+ if
Patients pay you directly, you want the website to answer and book on its own, you carry stock worth tracking, or you want a free plan rather than a trial.
Questions
- Does Clinic+ bill insurance?
- No. We record the insurer on the patient's file and stop there. If you need claims, eligibility or remittance, Jane does that and we do not — and choosing us for a clinic that bills insurers would be a mistake we would rather you did not make.
- Can Clinic+ do video appointments?
- No. There is no telehealth in the product today. Clinics that need it run a separate tool, and if remote care is a real part of your week that is a friction worth weighing.
- What does the Clinic+ assistant do that online booking does not?
- A booking form assumes the visitor already knows what to book. The assistant answers the question that comes first — do you treat this, how much is it, do you have anything on Thursday — in the language they wrote in, and then books it. Most enquiries never reach a booking form; they reach a phone, or nothing.
The only comparison that settles it is your own week
Put one real week through both — the same bookings, the same cancellations, the same two awkward patients. Clinic+ is free to start and takes no card.
