About KrankyBear BackTrack

Practice management software built with integrity, designed for healthcare

Our Mission

To empower healthcare professionals with practice management software that is powerful, secure, ethical, and affordable. We believe that patient data belongs to the practice and should never be held hostage, sold, or exploited. Our software is designed to help you deliver better care while maintaining complete control over your data.

Our Story

KrankyBear BackTrack was born from decades of real-world experience creating and using software, both for software development companies and as a consumer, more recently working closely with healthcare professionals in healthcare practices. After years of providers working with often clunky, expensive practice management systems that locked data behind paywalls and subscription barriers, we decided to create something different.

We started building BackTrack with a simple philosophy: Your data is yours. Period. No hidden fees to export your records. No forced cloud subscriptions. No selling your patient data to third parties. Just powerful, reliable software that respects your practice and your patients.

Today, BackTrack serves multiple practice types across the healthcare spectrum—from chiropractic and physical therapy to veterinary medicine, general medical practice and even cosmetology with more modules planned. The goal is eficiency, not feature bloat, but any features not yet available will be added as we're constantly improving and expanding based on feedback from real practitioners like you.

We are a small, dedicated team with a passion for creating software that is powerful, secure, affordable, and easy to use. We believe that by putting data ownership back in the hands of healthcare providers—without subscription traps or vendor lock-in—we can fundamentally change how practice management software is built and sold.

Our Core Values

Doing What's Right

Integrity in every decision, transparency in every action, and ethics above profits.

🚀

Innovation Without Limits

Continuously pushing boundaries to create better solutions for healthcare professionals.

🤝

Succeeding Together

Your success is our success. We grow when you grow, and we're committed to your long-term success.

🔒

Data Privacy First

Your data stays on your hardware. We use military-grade encryption (SQLCipher) to protect patient information. We never have access to your database, and we never will.

No Hostage-Taking

Your patient data belongs to you—not us. Export anytime, anywhere, for any reason. Switch software without penalty. We earn your business by being the best, not by locking you in.

💰

Fair Pricing

One-time perpetual licenses with optional support. No forced subscriptions. No per-patient fees. No surprise charges. Just honest, transparent pricing that respects your budget.

🎯

Practice-Focused

Built by people who understand healthcare workflows. Every feature is designed to save you time, reduce clicks, and let you focus on what matters: caring for patients.

🛡️

Security & Compliance

HIPAA-compliant architecture. SOC 2-ready security practices. Regular security audits. Encrypted backups. User access controls. We take protecting sensitive health information seriously.

🚀

Continuous Improvement

We actively listen to user feedback and release regular updates. New features, bug fixes, and improvements are delivered frequently—at no additional cost.

🤝 Our Ethical Data Guarantee

We pledge to uphold the highest standards of data ethics and privacy. These are not just words—they're legally binding commitments in our license agreement:

Your Data is Yours

All patient/client data remains your exclusive property. We have no claim to it, no access to it, and no interest in it beyond providing you with excellent software.

Free Export, Always

Export your entire database in open formats (CSV, JSON, SQL) anytime, for free. No fees, no restrictions, no questions asked. Want to switch software? Go ahead—we won't stop you.

No Data Mining or Selling

We will never sell, rent, or share patient/client data with third parties. Ever. Your patients' privacy is not for sale.

No Backdoors or Surveillance

No hidden telemetry. No unauthorized data collection. No remote access without your explicit permission. The software runs locally on your hardware, period.

If we ever violate these principles, all affected license holders will receive a full refund and a perpetual, unrestricted license at no charge. That's how committed we are to these values.

Built on Solid Technology

Go + Fyne GUI

Built with Google's Go language and the Fyne GUI toolkit for cross-platform compatibility, speed, and reliability. Native performance on macOS, Windows, and Linux with a consistent, modern interface.

SQLCipher Database

Military-grade 256-bit AES encryption protects your database. Based on SQLite, one of the most reliable and widely-tested database engines in the world. Fast, robust, and battle-tested.

Local-First Architecture

Your data lives on your hardware. No cloud dependency for daily operations. Work offline whenever you need. Optional sync for multi-location practices, but always in your control.

The Team Behind BackTrack

BackTrack was founded in Tennessee in 2025, and is primarily developed by Allan Marillier with other software engineers, with advisors who are current and former healthcare professionals, and privacy advocates. We combine deep technical expertise with real-world healthcare experience to create software that actually works the way you work.

Our team includes advisors who are former practice managers and clinicians who have experienced the frustrations of legacy practice management systems firsthand, as well as IT professionals. We're building the software we wish everyone could benefit from.
