No customers yet, so no case studies yet
A case study is a measured before and a measured after, from a named practice that agreed to be named. Operate1 has been live since 2026 and has none of those. Writing one anyway would be the fastest way to lose the kind of buyer we want.
What our first case study will have to contain
Published now, before we have anything to publish, so it cannot be quietly softened later.
A named practice, with permission
The practitioner's name, the practice name, and the city. If they will not be named, it is not a case study, it is an anecdote, and it will not be published as one.
A before that was measured before, not remembered after
Records held, admin hours, no-show rate, and payment collection lag, captured at signup rather than recalled at the end. A before-number produced after the fact is not evidence.
A stated window and the method
30, 60, or 90 days, with how each number was counted and by whom. If we counted it from our own dashboard, we say so, and we say what our dashboard can and cannot see.
The parts that did not work
What broke in the migration, what they still keep outside Operate1, and what they would tell a peer to check first. A case study with no friction in it has been edited into an advertisement.
What exists in the meantime, clearly labelled
There is a worked example on the homepage. It is arithmetic, run on an illustrative practice, and it is labelled as an illustration rather than as anybody's result. You can change the assumptions in your head and the conclusion will move, which is exactly what a real case study would not let you do.
There is a competitor comparison on the pricing page. Every figure is in the vendor's own currency and billing terms, and marked either published from the vendor's own page or reported second-hand and unverified. It includes the cases where a competitor costs less than we do.
And there is the product. Sign up free, import twenty client records, publish a booking page, and judge it in about ten minutes without speaking to anyone. That is the only category of proof we honestly have today.
Be the practice we measure
We want a founding cohort practice willing to have its starting position recorded properly at signup: how many client records exist, where they currently live, how long admin takes in a week, and how many sessions get missed. Then the same measurements again at 30, 60, and 90 days, whatever they say.
What the founding cohort gets: onboarding run by the founder over a screen share, and the first 200 paid accounts keeping $19 and $49 for 12 months from signup, after which pricing rises.
On Business, the 14-Day Move Guarantee covers the part that actually worries people. Send us your records in whatever format they are in, book the setup call, and if your records are not live with your notices written and your retention schedule configured within 14 days of that call, your next three months are free.
If the numbers come out flat or bad, we publish them that way or we do not publish them at all. We will not ask you to edit them.
