The short version

  • Only Fullscript has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Fullscript the practitioner sets their own margin on products they clinically recommend, which is a conflict of interest that some professional bodies and patients view badly, and the platform makes the arrangement easy rather than making it visible.; Ibex Medical Analytics the European IVDR indication is broader than the United States position, where some applications operate under laboratory developed test arrangements rather than FDA authorisation, which determines whether AI output can influence a signed report.
  • They diverge on capability: Fullscript covers Protocol dispensing, Ibex Medical Analytics covers Ibex Breast Suite.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 1 September 2026.

Where each one falls short

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

Fullscript

  • The practitioner sets their own margin on products they clinically recommend, which is a conflict of interest that some professional bodies and patients view badly, and the platform makes the arrangement easy rather than making it visible.
  • The account is free but the practice does not control pricing, catalogue, shipping cost or the patient discount, so the entire economics of the dispensary can be changed by the vendor without the practice having any lever.
  • Converting to a profit account requires personal identity verification, tax details and a bank account, and makes dispensary earnings the practitioner personal taxable income to report, which is administrative work no one warns about at signup.
  • Product availability and shipping are geographically limited, so practices outside the supported countries cannot use it at all and cross border patients will find items unavailable at checkout.
  • Patient refill schedules, plan history and a slice of practice revenue accumulate inside a platform the practice cannot export in a form another dispensary would accept, so switching later means asking every patient to re-enrol somewhere else.

Ibex Medical Analytics

  • The European IVDR indication is broader than the United States position, where some applications operate under laboratory developed test arrangements rather than FDA authorisation, which determines whether AI output can influence a signed report.
  • It requires a fully digitised histopathology workflow, and slide scanning, storage and validation typically cost several times the algorithm licence.
  • Running it as a second read safety net adds a discrepancy resolution workload that departments consistently underestimate, and someone senior has to adjudicate every flag.
  • Coverage is limited to breast, prostate and gastric, so a general histopathology department still reads the majority of its case mix without any AI support.
  • Pricing is per case and unpublished, so cost scales directly with biopsy volume and does not flatten as the department grows.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Fullscript: Is Fullscript really free for practitioners?

Yes, the account has no fee. Fullscript earns on the supplements sold through it, and a practitioner on a profit account also earns a margin on those sales.

Ibex Medical Analytics: Is Ibex FDA cleared?

The regulatory position differs by product and market. In Europe the products carry CE marking under IVDR for defined diagnostic indications; in the United States some applications are used under laboratory developed test arrangements. Confirm the exact status for the specific application and market before assuming it can influence a signed report.

Fullscript: How do practitioners make money on it?

By converting to a profit dispensary and setting a margin. That requires tax information and a bank account, and the earnings are taxable income.

Ibex Medical Analytics: Second read or prescreening?

Both are supported. Second read as a safety net is the more common clinical governance justification; prescreening is the efficiency case.

Fullscript: What do patients pay?

No account fee, and a ten per cent discount on orders if the practitioner runs a no profit dispensary rather than taking a margin.

Ibex Medical Analytics: Does it need a particular scanner?

It ingests from the major whole slide scanner vendors rather than requiring a single fleet, which is a practical advantage over vendors tied to one scanner.

Fullscript: Is there an enterprise option?

Yes, quoted for health systems, adding central catalogue control, API EHR integration and cross site reporting.

Ibex Medical Analytics: What tissue types are covered?

Breast, prostate and gastric. Everything else in the case mix is unsupported.
