WriteUpp vs Kiku

Let’s get something clear from the start: software comparison pages can be tricky. When written by competitors, they’re often biased  sometimes even misleading. And let’s face it, the only truly reliable comparison is the one you make yourself (or with feedback from trusted peers running similar clinics).

That’s why, at WriteUpp, we believe in offering you an honest, transparent comparison. Our goal isn’t to overhype or mislead - it’s to give you the facts so you can decide what your healthcare practice really needs from an all-in-one practice management platform.

Whether you’re a UK physiotherapist, counsellor, podiatrist, speech therapist, or multi-disciplinary clinic, the right software should:

  • Simplify admin

  • Save time

  • Keep patient data secure (GDPR and ISO 27001 compliant)

  • Support modern features like telehealth, mobile apps, and online booking

This way, you can judge WriteUpp vs Kiku on what matters most to your practice - not on marketing spin.

How does WriteUpp compare to Kiku

Logo
Kiku

All-in-One Practice Management Platform

WriteUpp: Webrings everything together in one place - appointment booking, waiting lists, patient portals, custom forms & consents, outcome tracking, invoicing, and built-in telehealth.

Kiku: Designed primarily for counsellors and focuses on essentials like booking, messaging, forms, and payments, but lacks the same breadth to support multi-disciplinary or growing practices.

Video Consultations

WriteUpp: Includes secure, built-in video consultations with free trial minutes, diary integration, automated reminders, and patient record syncing.

Kiku: Does not offer native video consultations, meaning practitioners need to rely on external apps - adding additional cost, admin, and complexity.

ISO Certification

WriteUpp: We're ISO 27001 certified, GDPR-ready, and fully encrypted, giving clinics in the UK and EU confidence that patient data is protected to the highest standards, giving you one less thing to worry about at the end of the day.

Kiku: Offers GDPR compliance, encrypted storage, and two-factor authentication, but doesn’t carry the same ISO-certified security assurances.

Transparent Pricing & Risk-Free Trial

WriteUpp: We offer a 30-day free trial with 1,000 video minutes and 20 SMS credits included, so you can test the full platform end-to-end before committing.

Kiku: Also offers a free trial, but without video it’s harder to experience a complete clinic workflow.

Rapid Support

WriteUpp: Our UK-based support team responds in under 7 minutes on average, with resources like webinars and case studies to keep practices running smoothly.

Kiku: Also UK-built and therapist-friendly, but with slower support speed or breadth of cross-disciplinary clinic features.

Exclusive Partner Integrations

WriteUpp: Integrates with CloudRx (digital prescribing), Wibbi (patient engagement), and Physitrack (exercise programmes), as well as Xero, Stripe, MailChimp, and external calendars - making it a more connected, future-ready solution for clinics.

Kiku: Provides core features for counselling workflows, but has a narrower integration network.

“I'm a Podiatrist and not very "techie" and after more than 25 years of a paper diary and records I realised I needed to drag myself into the 21st century. Earlier this year amidst much internal kicking and screaming I finally started using WriteUpp and I've never looked back. I utterly love the facility to upload attachment photos into client records of the foot problems they have, it enables me to monitor progress of their treatment plan."

“I tested many other systems before going with WriteUpp and it is hands down the most intuitive system, easily customisable, with a great online booking facilities. This system has made note taking, client management and bookings a million times more efficient. It's not very often things go wrong, but on the odd occasion that it does, their support is always very responsive and friendly.Highly recommend them and their system”

“WriteUpp is an excellent service; streamlined and efficient. Having client notes securely in one place is a huge reassurance. The ability to integrate the package onto my website to facilitate online bookings and cut down on phone calls was absolutely amazing. The automatic appointment acknowledgement and SMS reminder system are also excellent and help augment the professionalism of my business, not to mention reduce time-wasting/profit-draining 'no-shows'. Overall I'm a very satisfied customer."
