tab32 API
tab32 ships a REST API, an MCP server and a BigQuery warehouse, but only as options on the custom priced Summit enterprise plan. There is no public developer portal or reference, so Alpine practices have no documented route to their own data beyond migration services.
Frequently asked questions
tab32 scores D+ on Supergood's API Report Card. tab32 ships a REST API, an MCP server and a BigQuery warehouse, but only as options on the custom priced Summit enterprise plan. There is no public developer portal or reference, so Alpine practices have no documented route to their own data beyond migration services.
Without a usable official API, teams fall back on manual exports, file drops, or one-off vendor integrations. The other option is an unofficial API layer like Supergood that automates the authenticated web app directly. Site terms may apply to any integration approach, and how they apply is a determination each team makes for itself.
tab32 is a cloud native dental practice management platform founded in 2012 by Kiltesh Patel and Lonna Yen and built on Google Cloud Platform.
tab32 sells to solo dentists, new practices and small groups through self-serve Alpine pricing, and to DSOs and multi-specialty groups (including orthodontics, pediatrics and mobile dentistry) through Summit. A practice schedules, verifies eligibility with usage priced AI checks, charts with voice scribes and voice perio, captures cloud x-rays, and submits claims with e-attachments at $0.20 per claim.
Tab32 states it is trusted by 1,000+ dental practices across 40+ states (https://tab32.com/), its Summit page cites 17.2M appointments, 13M patients and $1.8B in annual revenue processed (https://tab32.com/summit/), LinkedIn lists 51 to 200 employees (https://www.linkedin.com/company/tab32) and Capterra holds 41 reviews (https://www.capterra.com/p/149415/tab32/), placing it among the smaller established cloud PMS vendors.
tab32 stores the shared patient record across all locations, schedules and waitlists, clinical charts, notes and treatment plans, cloud x-rays and images, insurance plans and fee schedules, claims, attachments and ERAs, the ledger, Stripe payments and payment plans, and patient messaging history.
Founded in 2012, tab32 was cloud native from the start and rebuilt its UX in 2021; it runs as a multi tenant application on Google Cloud with Azure AD and Google Workspace SSO, SOC 2 attestation since 2024, and a BigQuery based open data warehouse launched in 2020.
An independent API profile finds tab32's API partner gated rather than self-serve, with no public endpoint paths, base URLs or authentication details. A third party comparison notes the open API, warehouse and MCP server are Summit only, so a solo practice on Alpine has no published route to its own data. Full sourced list under Sources below.
Common alternatives include Dentrix, Open Dental, Curve Dental, CareStack, Denticon (Planet DDS). Graded alternatives appear under "More from the report card" below.
Supergood's grades measure one thing: can a customer's engineering team get their own data out programmatically? Supergood checks six things (whether a real API exists, how access is gated, data coverage, auth quality, docs and developer experience, and stability) and rolls them into a letter grade. Supergood re-verifies grades, and they only move on evidence.
tab32 has partial MCP support. tab32 advertises an official on-demand MCP server that lets AI agents read scheduling, clinical and financial data, but it is sold only as a Summit enterprise option with no public documentation, registry listing or connection details.
Partially. MCP support for tab32 exists but is incomplete, so what MCP clients like Claude, Cursor, and Codex can reach depends on what the available server covers.
