IntakeQ vs Zanda

IntakeQ provides healthcare practices with online intake forms and patient onboarding tools. Its no-code form builder supports branded forms, conditional logic, different question formats, and electronic signatures. Practices can send forms by SMS or email, and clients can complete them on smartphones and tablets. The platform also supports document uploads, payment collection, a client portal, and conditional workflow automation. Listed integrations include Dropbox, Google Drive, Zapier, RevolutionEHR, Elation Health, and SRFax; its API lets developers retrieve form and client-record data. IntakeQ describes its platform as HIPAA-compliant and says it uses encryption. Customers subject to HIPAA must notify IntakeQ and enter into a Business Associate Agreement before handling protected health information through the service. The trial offers 14 days of access without a credit card, though SMS and email usage may have volume restrictions. Pricing starts at $29.90/mo. Subscriptions are month-to-month and can be canceled in the app, with account and data access through the current billing cycle.

Zanda is a cloud-based practice management system for health practices, bringing administrative tasks into a browser service. It includes appointment scheduling, clinical notes, client management, digital forms, billing, reporting, a client portal, reminders, online payments, waitlists, and recurring appointments. It supports Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. Every plan includes AI writing and editing, four AI Scribe appointments per month, and AI Insights across each client’s last three sessions. Zoom-powered telehealth is available; the optional Telehealth Pro add-on provides unlimited calls for $9 a month per practitioner. Zanda lists integrations including Xero, Stripe, Mailchimp, calendar services, Physitrack, Medicare, DVA, and Tyro. The public API is in beta, with read-oriented access to practice data; beta enrolments are closed. The company says data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and accounts can be hosted in Australia, the UK, or the US. Starter costs $19 a month and is limited to one practitioner and 1,000 appointments; a 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan.
