*Savings include the value of rebate points, not just checkout discounts, and vary by product, tier, and current supplier promotions.
**Estimated annual average across 81 member clinics averaging 10+ appointments a month, June–August 2026, based on measured platform activity and estimated staff time per task. Approximately 94% of estimated time savings are attributable to Core EHR automation (online booking and automated patient messaging), while approximately 6% are attributable to Advanced Tools (Copilot and AI campaigns), which are currently in beta testing.

Membership is free, with no long-term contract. Our team helps you set up supplier accounts and supports your compliance and paperwork. Your practice keeps ultimate responsibility for its compliance.
Most members place their first order in 2 to 4 weeks. Timing depends on the supplier accounts you work with.
Set up AI-powered patient campaigns to build patient lists, tailor each message, and follow up when treatments are due. That means more time with the patients in front of you.

No. Portrait membership has no revenue share. You keep 100% of what your practice earns. Your only costs are the supplies you order and any paid services you choose. Portrait Legacy is a separate program with its own terms and partnership model.
We negotiate on behalf of 1,200+ member practices, so you can access group pricing on the products you already order. As you move up a tier, your pricing improves.
For a limited time, the EHR is complimentary for all members. When standard pricing begins, it stays complimentary at Bronze and above, and Core members pay $249/month. It covers scheduling, charting, payments, and inventory in one connected system.
Portrait membership has six tiers: Core, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond. Your tier moves automatically with your quarterly Marketplace order volume. The more you order, the lower your pricing gets. Want better pricing from your first order? You can start at a higher tier with a credit package.
