Acupuncture clinic software compared: booking, notes & payment

Jane App, Mindbody, SimplePractice or a one-time bookable site? Here's the honest trade-off for a solo or small clinic.

The four things clinic software must do

• Online booking — patients schedule without calling.
• Notes / charts — SOAP notes, treatment history.
• Payment — cards, deposits, packages.
• Reminders — cut no-shows.

Side-by-side

Tool	Monthly cost	Website included	Best for
Jane App	$79–$199/mo	Basic	Established multi-practitioner clinics
Mindbody	$129–$299/mo	Basic	Gyms / large wellness brands
SimplePractice	$39–$79/mo	No	Therapists needing robust notes
Lieke AI bookable site	$199 once	Yes, full	Solo / small TCM & acupuncture clinics

Which should you pick?

If you're a solo acupuncturist or a 1–3 room TCM clinic, the monthly SaaS tools often cost more per year than your first few patients bring in. A $199 one-time bookable site covers booking + payment + a real website, with no recurring fee. You can always add a notes tool later.

If you run a multi-practitioner practice with insurance billing, Jane or SimplePractice's notes engine may be worth the subscription.

Do I lose my data if I stop paying? With subscriptions, yes — lock-in. With our site, you own it.
