About

Software for the way practices here actually run.

Shifora started from a working chamber, not a market study. It solves the problems a Bangladeshi private practice has this week: appointments over phone calls, history on paper, prescriptions nobody can read, and fees that are hard to collect remotely.

What we hold to

Built here, not translated here

Taka, Dhaka time, bKash, WhatsApp, and a medicine list drawn from what Bangladeshi pharmacies actually stock. These are not a localisation layer over software designed elsewhere — they are what the product is shaped around.

The phone people own is the target

A budget Android with two gigabytes of memory is the device most patients will use, so it sets the standard. The app measures how it is actually performing and takes effects off rather than stuttering.

Say what it does not do

Every product page here carries a list of limits. It costs us some sign-ups and saves everyone the conversation that starts three weeks in.

Enforce it where it counts

A rule that lives only in the interface is a suggestion. The boundaries that matter — between practices, between roles, around a consultation — are enforced in the database and on the server.

Why there is no signup button

Anyone can open an account on most software. On Shifora, a person creates your practice and speaks to you first.

That is partly caution — this is clinical data, and we would like to know who is holding it. It is also practical: a chamber's opening hours, slot length, fee and payout account are worth getting right at the start rather than discovering three weeks later that bookings have been landing on a day you do not sit.

It does mean we are slower than a signup form. It also means someone answers when you write.
