FAQ
Pricing, data, and what Ask Paige is — and isn't
Straight answers for aesthetic practice owners, including the three questions we get most about other products also named “Paige.” For the full comparison, see /compare.
- What is Ask Paige?
- Ask Paige is an AI business advisor for aesthetic practice owners — med spas, dermatology practices, and plastic surgery practices. It verifies device-rep claims against FDA data, translates your practice numbers into benchmark-backed action items, and listens live during rep meetings to flag questionable claims in real time.
- Who is Ask Paige built for?
- Practice owners and physicians — the people who buy devices, hire reps, and run the practice P&L. Ask Paige is not built for device manufacturers, distributors, or sales teams, and it is not designed to help anyone sell into a practice.
- How much does Ask Paige cost?
- 30-day pilot, the Rep-Meeting Test (card required to start; no charge if you cancel within 30 days), then $99/month founding rate for the first 100 practices or $199/month standard rate. Cancel anytime. There is no free-forever tier; a payment method is required to start the trial, and you can cancel anytime before or during the trial with nothing charged.
- Is there a free trial?
- Yes — a 30-day pilot we call the Rep-Meeting Test. A card is required to start (so it can convert automatically to a paid plan), but you will not be charged if you cancel before the 30 days end. Run your next device-rep meeting through Paige during the pilot — if she hasn't earned her keep, cancel and pay nothing.
- What data powers Ask Paige?
- Ask Paige runs on proprietary intelligence compiled by Fathom's collection engine — devices, services, ratings, review velocity, and business-maturity signals gathered and structured across tens of thousands of U.S. aesthetic practices, combined with public FDA device records. See the Data & Methodology page for how the corpus is compiled and refreshed.
- Is Ask Paige related to Paige.ai?
- No. Paige.ai is an unrelated, FDA-cleared cancer-pathology AI company serving pathologists and labs. Ask Paige is a business advisor for aesthetic practice owners. There is no affiliation between the two.
- Is Ask Paige the same as askpaige.ai?
- No. askpaige.ai is an unrelated consumer subscription-management concept. Ask Paige, the AI advisor for aesthetic practice owners described on this site, lives at askpaige.io and has no affiliation with askpaige.ai.
- Is Ask Paige the Merchynt 'Paige' SEO agent?
- No. Merchynt's Paige is a local-SEO AI agent that optimizes business listings. Ask Paige advises aesthetic practice owners on device purchases, performance benchmarks, and rep meetings. The two products are unaffiliated and solve different problems.
- Does Ask Paige replace my device rep or practice consultant?
- Ask Paige doesn't replace the relationship — it removes the information gap in it. It verifies what a rep or consultant tells you against independent data (FDA clearances, benchmark performance) before you make a purchase decision, so you walk into any meeting with the same information the other side already has.
- Can I cancel anytime?
- Yes. Cancel anytime from your account settings — no minimum term, no cancellation fee.
- Is my practice data kept private?
- Yes. Your practice's own data (financials, schedule, benchmarks you input) is used only to generate your advisor output and is never sold or shared with device manufacturers, reps, or other practices.
- How is Ask Paige different from a generic BI or dashboard tool?
- Generic BI tools show you your own numbers with no outside context. Ask Paige pairs your numbers with a benchmark drawn from tens of thousands of comparable aesthetic practices and adds aesthetics-specific judgment — device clearance checks, rep-claim detection, and one prioritized action item — instead of a dashboard you have to interpret yourself.
