Integration & Interoperability

Rethink offers integrations for billing, payroll, and HR systems, but is generally seen as a more closed ecosystem. APIs are limited, and most customers use Rethink as a single solution rather than part of a modular stack.


Ideal Use Case

Best suited for ABA providers looking for a comprehensive, all-in-one platform that includes training and clinical content out-of-the-box, and who value centralized systems over flexible third-party integrations.
