Replace Podium. Run your whole med spa on one platform.

Podium texts patients, collects reviews, and takes payments. Annabelle Health does all of that, plus books, charts, and runs your clinic — one HIPAA-compliant platform, month to month.

Podium is a messaging app. It's not a practice management system.

Podium does reviews, two-way texting, webchat, and payments well — for restaurants, auto shops, and general SMBs. But a med spa running Podium still pays for booking somewhere else, charts somewhere else, and stitches the patient's texts to their chart by hand. Annabelle Health was built so every conversation, appointment, note, photo, and payment lives on one patient record — because it's all one platform.

Annabelle Health vs. Podium.

Everything you use Podium for — reviews, texting, webchat, payments — plus the booking, charting, and clinical tools Podium was never built to do.

Booking Podium can't do

Online booking, room scheduling, deposits, packages, and memberships — the front desk Podium lacks.

Charting on the same record

SOAP notes, injection maps, consent, and before/after live on the same record as texts and payments.

Reviews & messaging, still first-class

AI review requests, SMS, and webchat — Podium's jobs, inside the platform that runs your clinic.

Payments without a middleman

Deposits, checkout, and membership billing run through your own Stripe account, pass-through rates.

AI Scribe & AI receptionist

Turn visits into chart notes, answer, triage, and book inbound messages around the clock — included.

No annual lock-in

Month-to-month billing and full data export — no 12-month contract, no cancellation window.

Pay less — and get an entire platform.

Podium starts at $399 a month per location for Core and $599 for Pro, and most single-location businesses land between $450 and $800 once phone numbers, extra users, and the $99-a-month AI reply module stack up — all on a 12-month auto-renewing contract. Annabelle Health Core is $249 and Pro is $399 a month, and that includes reviews, two-way SMS, webchat, and payments alongside the entire clinical platform — booking, charting, patient portal, and AI. One bill, month to month.

Where Podium fits — and where it doesn't.

Podium is a polished, capable tool used across dozens of industries, and if all you need is reviews and texting for a non-clinical business you already run well, it does that job. For a med spa, though, it's a premium point solution that still leaves booking and charting to other software. If you're consolidating your stack onto one patient record, Annabelle is the better economics and the better clinical fit.

See your Podium spend on one bill instead.
