These are the functionalities that are going to make your practice run so much smoother. It's going to reduce your admin and potentially give you the opportunity to take on more clients.
Jenni Salisbury, Owner
Practice Management Administration & Support Service
Conversations with my clients can run half an hour on really heavy stuff. Before Bizzy AI, I had to balance staying present with frantically taking notes. Now I can just sit with them, the documentation is taken care of.
Kathryn Theodosis, Owner

The Zanda team is friendly and available they jump on the case, they don't give up, they work through the challenges with you.
Shalav, Solo Private Practice
The generation of personal Tax Invoices and receipts allows me to individualise these invoices and to create third party payments from care services such as NDIS payments. Being able to create monthly sales reports for tax return is a huge time saver.
