• Toothio - Quality-focused platform in major metros. More selective vetting process but smaller network.
• Kwikly - Growing platform with competitive rates, especially in Texas and the Southeast.

How to Evaluate Options

Consider these factors when selecting a platform:

• Local Coverage: Does the platform have active users in your specific area? National presence does not guarantee local availability.
• Reviews from Your Area: Look for reviews from practices or professionals in your market specifically.
• Fees and Pricing: Compare platform fees, markup percentages, and any subscription costs.
• Cancellation Policies: Understand what happens if a temp cancels or does not show up.
• Credential Verification: How thoroughly does the platform vet professionals?
