Simple pricing, for the whole practice.
Two services, priced plainly. The platform has one published price per practitioner, with an optional claims add-on (coming soon). Practice digitisation is quoted for your rooms. All prices include VAT.
One licence, with or without claims.
Every practice gets the full platform. Practices that bill medical aids add the claims add-on (coming soon); practices that do not, do not pay for it.

- Access for your reception and admin team
- Dedicated on-site onboarding
- Diary, records, results, scripts and documents in one place

Quoted for your practice, by consultation.
No two practices hold the same records, so practice digitisation is priced by consultation and quotation. Each part is quoted on its own basis, and every quote includes VAT.
- Your practice off paper
- Scoped to your rooms
- Migrated into the Engine Room
- Old records, off paper
- In-country and immutable
- Retrievable on demand
- Fully local, compliant server
- POPIA-aligned data protocols
- Live practice data, kept fast
Per practitioner, on purpose.
The pricing follows the same logic as the platform: keep it simple, and remove anything that works against the practice.
Same figure, every practice
The licence is the same whether the practice is a solo room or a large group, and whichever of the five specialities it runs. Practice type and size do not change the price.
Adding a practitioner stays simple
Because the price is per practitioner and flat, bringing another clinician into a practice carries no step change or tier to negotiate.
More Less
The decision to add capacity is a clinical one, not a pricing one.
Claims only where they are made
The claims add-on (coming soon) carries the cost of medical aid work, so a practice that does not bill medical aids never subsidises one that does.
How the practice runs, generic versus Tessa.
The licence buys a different way of running the practice, not a longer feature list. These are the honest dimensions on which it differs.
| Dimension | Generic software | Tessa |
|---|---|---|
| Built by | Designed at a distance to support every speciality at once. | Built by practising clinicians, business specialists and technology specialists working as one team. |
| Claim to payment | Coding and billing reconstructed later, in a manual check after the consultation. | Coding and claims captured at the point of decision, while the clinical context is still open. |
| Onboarding | Handled at a distance, with the practice left to move itself across. | Dedicated Satchel and Boot specialists on site, moving the practice onto Tessa in person. |
| Fit to speciality | One generic template that asks the clinician to bend to the system. | Tuned to the speciality's actual consultation, so the system fits the way the practice works. |
| Follow-up | Authorisations, results and follow-ups left to diary notes and memory. | Each task tracked and held open until it closes, completing the Control Journey. |
Five specialities, one licence.
Each edition carries the Tessa name and its own discipline colour on the orbiting dot. Every one runs on the same standard licence of R4 945 per practitioner per month, incl VAT.
The pricing, plainly answered.
How is billing calculated?
Per practitioner, per month: R4 945 for the platform licence, or R5 462.50 with the claims add-on (coming soon), incl VAT. The figure is flat across practice type and size, so the total is the price multiplied by the number of practitioners.
What is the claims add-on?
Coming soon: an optional R517.50 per practitioner per month, incl VAT, for practices that bill medical aids. It covers the switching-house costs of benefit checks and claims. A practice that takes card or cash payments only does not need it, and does not pay for it.
Who handles onboarding?
Dedicated Satchel and Boot specialists, on site, as part of the licence. They move the practice onto Tessa in person rather than leaving it to work through the change on its own. Bringing old records across is practice digitisation, quoted separately.
How is practice digitisation priced?
By consultation and quotation. Digitising the records is scoped to your rooms, the secure archive is priced per terabyte per month, and sovereign hosting per tier per month. Every quote includes VAT.
Do the specialities cost different amounts?
No. All five specialities run on the same standard licence. There is no premium edition and no tiered feature set to compare.
