Digital consent forms, signed before arrival
Clients sign consent forms on their phone before the appointment. Everything stored securely, linked to their profile, accessible when you need it.
The problem
Paper forms are a liability, not a solution
- Paper gets lost
- Filing cabinets full of forms, or worse — stacks of paper you'll never find when you actually need them.
- Slows down appointments
- Clients arrive and spend ten minutes filling out forms. It eats into their appointment time and yours.
- Compliance headaches
- GDPR and data retention rules mean you need to track how long you've held consent forms. Paper makes this nearly impossible.
