Consumer Psychology
Why users choose our ecosystem
Fast access
Users can choose locations with available time slots and book a testing appointment directly, without waiting for a doctor consultation first.
Convenience tailored to needs
Users can also find a location based on the criteria that matter most to them, such as test turnaround time, sample collection method, staff language, and more.
No referral needed
AskBefore helps users understand where self-paid STI testing is available, even at providers that also work with insurance.
We’re like Booking.com — but for STI testing
Instead of comparing hotels, users compare locations for STI testing.
Built for Partner Excellence
High-intent leads
Users are directed to the AskBefore Map after agreeing to exchange test certificates with a partner, so their desire to book an appointment is already established. These are not casual browsers; they are ready-to-book patients.
Increasing direct purchases
We increase the number of purchases users make at clinics directly through our platform.
Boosting average order value
We increase average order value by encouraging users to request comprehensive test packages and specific STI tests from their partners.
Retention-ready patients
We bring health-conscious users who are likely to stay for treatment if a sexually transmitted infection (STI) is detected.
It’s important for me to continue with the doctor I’ve been in contact with about my issue. They understand the context, and I’m already in the process.
Capturing high-value demand wherever it lives
City-specific SEO
We build hyper-local medical content clusters designed to capture search intent for STI testing in each city.
UGC content
We grow TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube through educational content that normalizes and motivates test-result sharing between partners.
LLM (Chat GPT, Gemini,etc)
We publish blog content designed to surface in AI-generated answers and guide users back to our product.
Collaboration Opportunities. Start quickly or connect deeply
You can start with the simplest entry point or move directly to the fully integrated setup. The latter leads to more user conversion, as greater convenience typically results in higher booking rates.
