The idea
A financial intelligence dashboard for solo and small-group practice owners that ingests practice management system and bank data, benchmarks overhead categories against same-size peers, and delivers a weekly plain-language summary explaining where money went and which single line item, if changed, would move take-home the most. No accounting degree needed to act on it.
Who pays
Dental Practice Owner / Owner-Dentist, typically Solo practice to small group (1–5 locations, $500K–$3M annual collections). Replaces: quarterly dental CPA calls and manual overhead tracking in spreadsheets.
The pain
SourcedOwner-dentists were trained clinically, not as operators, and personally run HR, billing, marketing, and scheduling with overhead running 60–70%. They want to see where money actually goes and what changing any single line item would be worth.
