Clear, predictable pricing for healthcare organisations

We charge per user, so you only pay for the people you need to reach. Each licence includes generous allowances for push, SMS and voice — enough for major incident alerts, infection control notifications and lone worker check-ins without worrying about unexpected costs.
  • Simple per-user pricing — no hidden extras
  • Ample message allowances built in
  • No "per alert" charges or surprise invoices

Frequently Asked Questions

What is required to get up and running?

We create your private administration console, seeded with sample data for healthcare organisations. You'll receive logins for the admin site and time-limited app registration codes. From there, you can upload your staff list, publish your major incident and continuity documents and roll out to a pilot group. Most organisations are ready to test in under an hour.

Where is our data stored?

Your data is hosted in a Tier 3+ carbon-neutral European data centre in Germany. With ISO 9001, 14001 and 27001 certifications, N+1 power, generators and UPS, we deliver enterprise-grade security and uptime — and UK GDPR compliant data handling as standard.

How much does it cost?

We charge per staff member, so you only pay for the people you need to reach. Each licence includes generous allowances for push, SMS and voice messaging. No hidden extras, no per-alert billing, and straightforward for finance teams and procurement to sign off.

See what it costs

What number do messages come from?

In most countries we can provide a dedicated number for SMS and voice. Staff can reply, and responses are logged in your console. If replies aren't needed, SMS can be sent from a branded text ID instead — useful for large clinical teams who shouldn't be responding directly.

What if we run out of messages?

Every licence includes a generous allowance sized for normal healthcare use — major incident alerts, infection control notifications, site closures and urgent operational updates. If you ever approach the limit, we'll notify you well in advance and you can top up at low cost. Most organisations never need to.

Can we include bank staff and agency workers?

Yes — licensing is per person, not per shift or employment type. This ensures everyone on shift can be reached in an emergency, including bank and agency staff, while keeping your budget simple to manage. You can deactivate access instantly when a worker's assignment ends.

What languages can we use?

SMS can be sent in any language supported by your keyboard. Voice messages are available in most languages, with male/female voices and regional English accents — useful for diverse clinical teams across different sites.

Is there a minimum contract?

We offer annual licences for predictability, which suits most NHS and independent healthcare procurement cycles. Multi-year discounts are available. Charitable healthcare organisations and hospices can request special pricing.

Fewer Gaps. Faster Response. Greater CQC Confidence.

When the unexpected happens — a major incident at 6am or an infection control alert mid-shift — you need every member of staff informed, documents accessible, and responses evidenced within minutes. The Calling Tree delivers instant alerts with tracked confirmations and document access you can demonstrate to CQC inspectors and your board.
