Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Doctor on Demand

  • Out-of-pocket costs without insurance: urgent care $99, therapy $134, psychiatry $299 per visit; no subscription model disclosed
  • Limited scope: urgent care only for non-emergency conditions; does not handle hospital-level care or complex surgeries

Paige

  • The FDA authorisation is confined to prostate core needle biopsies, on compatible scanners, viewed through FullFocus, as an adjunct only; every other tissue type and every grading claim is outside that authorisation in the United States.
  • The algorithm is worthless without a digital pathology programme already running, and slide scanning, storage and workflow typically cost far more than the software licence.
  • Tempus acquired Paige in 2025, so the roadmap now competes for attention inside a genomics-led business, and the pathology-only buyer is no longer the primary customer.
  • Scanner compatibility is a hard constraint rather than a preference, and a laboratory with an unsupported scanner fleet cannot use the authorised indication at all.
  • Pricing is per case or per slide and unpublished, so a laboratory cannot model cost per reported case without entering a sales process.
