Dental quote comparison: $1K a month, self-reported: four free quotes
Kelclinic compares dental clinics abroad and collects quote requests through one form. Its $1K a month was founder-reported on the Indie Hackers product page (not independently verified), as of September 30, 2026.
What it actually sells
Kelclinic compares dental clinics abroad and receives dental quote requests through one form. Its site says people can obtain four quotes from the best clinics without additional charges. The comparison and request process are presented on the Kelclinic website.
Kelclinic describes its audience as seeking dental treatment abroad: “se faire refaire les dents moins cher qu'en France (mais aussi Belgique et Suisse) sans compromettre la qualité des soins dentaires”. Its form promises: “Recevez des devis dentaires sous 24h via notre unique formulaire.”
How it charges
The pages we read do not state a price. Kelclinic says it provides four dental-clinic quotes without additional charges and receives requests through a single form. No currency amounts for the service appear on the pages we read.
Where customers come from
Visible channels include a single request form that promises dental quotes within 24 hours. Kelclinic also publishes interviews with dental clinics, including an interview with Dr Kovács Krisztina, and encourages people to publish patient testimonials from dental clinics on Kelclinic.com.
What stands out
Kelclinic verifies and publishes patient testimonials. Its site states: “Il y a 66 listes et 1506 avis.” It also says the domain name Kelclinic was registered in 2012 and that the site went online shortly afterward.
Kelclinic ranks dental clinics according to patient reviews and publishes information about medical tourism. The site says the founder had previously launched a review website in 2008 under the name NoteTonStage.fr.

Where it sits in the data
Kelclinic's $1K a month is higher than 40% of the 6,604 projects with founder-reported monthly revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $2K. Snapshot: 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.
Currency
All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.
Could you build something like this?
In my view, demand comes from people comparing dental treatment abroad and deciding which clinic to contact. Distribution would need a website, search visibility, clinic interviews, and patient reviews. The buyer is identified, but turning comparison searches into completed quote requests would require sustained promotion.
In my view, this needs real work around medical-tourism information, review verification, and quote follow-up. Regulation, patient privacy, support expectations, and competition among comparison services would each require attention. The product also depends on maintaining clinic information and useful patient reviews.
Verdict: Needs real work.
One thing to take from it
Kelclinic’s product shape links clinic comparisons, a quote-request form, patient reviews, and clinic interviews. A useful lesson is to connect an explicit action, requesting a quote, with published information that helps a person choose which clinics to contact.
