Why is FYL.CARE 100% Free?
It's the question we get asked most often: "How can such a complete platform be free?"
In a world where every software runs on a monthly subscription, our approach can be surprising. Yet, it is at the heart of our mission. Here is why FYL.CARE is free, and why it will remain so for its essential features.
A Social Mission First
We created FYL.CARE with a simple conviction: administrative management should not be a financial or technical burden for helping professionals.
Psychologists, social workers, psychoeducators, and therapists play a crucial role in our society. By freeing you from the costs of expensive software and administrative complexity, we want to allow you to focus on what really matters: your clients' well-being.
The Ethical "Freemium" Model
Being free doesn't mean we don't have a business model. We believe in a transparent and fair model.
What is Free Forever (The Core System)
All the features necessary for your daily practice are free:
- ✅ Unlimited client file management
- ✅ Calendar and appointment scheduling
- ✅ Progress notes and reports
- ✅ Law 25 Compliance
- ✅ Secure client portal
How We Will Fund Development
In the future, we will introduce optional value-added features, such as:
- Payment Processing: Standard transaction fees will apply if you choose to accept credit card payments via the platform.
- Advanced Automation Features: Specific tools for large clinics or very specialized needs.
The idea is simple: you only pay if you use services that generate revenue or save you even more time. Access to your data and basic management will always remain free.
Your Data is NOT the Product
It is crucial to clarify an important point. It is often said that "if it's free, you are the product". This is not the case at FYL.CARE.
- 🔒 Absolute Confidentiality: We NEVER sell, rent, or share your data or that of your clients.
- 🛡️ Maximum Security: Your data is encrypted and stored securely, complying with the strictest standards (Law 25, Canadian standards).
- 👁️ No Ads: You will never see advertisements on your dashboard.
A Commitment to the Community
By making FYL.CARE accessible to everyone, from the intern just starting out to the seasoned professional, we hope to standardize the quality of record-keeping and data security in the mental health field.
It's our way of contributing to a more efficient and humane healthcare system.
