Open comparison →Proof, not promises
SignalEDI is AI-first for speed — not hype. Every conversion page should reinforce the same proof: automation with accountability.
Guided intake turns partner requirements into checks you can pass — fewer reject loops before production.
Automation proposes mappings and next actions; humans stay in the loop where it matters for trust and compliance.
Critical workflows leave enough context for ops and security reviews without exposing secrets in the UI.

Why SignalEDI
Every plan published online. No demo required to see what you'll pay.
Guided wizard gets you from signup to partner-ready EDI setup in days, not weeks.
837, 835, 270, 271, 278 — standard healthcare X12 sets included in every paid plan.
Bearer keys, HTTPS file POST, and webhooks — evaluate without a mandatory sales demo for standard SMB paths.
Month-to-month contracts. Cancel anytime. Stay because it works.
SignalEDI prepares the work your side controls in days on standard SMB paths — flat monthly pricing, no setup fees, no per-transaction fees. Partner-side certification is a separate clock that no EDI vendor controls; SignalEDI helps you finish your preparation before waiting on the partner.
Yes. Many teams keep their VAN or legacy EDI tool for one partner and use a modern layer for new partners or APIs — evaluate SignalEDI on time-to-first-success, not rip-and-replace day one.
SignalEDI plans are flat monthly pricing with no per-transaction fees. Compare total cost — services hours, surprise fees, and sales cycles — against any per-document quote you have today; our tiers are published before any sales conversation.
No. Healthcare EDI transaction sets are included on every paid plan — 837 claims, 835 remittance, and 270/271 eligibility ride alongside retail and supply-chain sets, not a separate “healthcare EDI” tier.
No mandatory sales gate on standard SMB paths. Self-serve trial, API-first evaluation, and validation before your partner sees the file. Enterprise procurement and security reviews are still supported when needed — that is different from gating every SMB behind a calendar.
Plans start at $199/mo (Starter), $499/mo (Growth, unlimited transactions, no per-document fees), and $999+/mo (Enterprise). Every tier is published online; compare total cost against demo-gated quotes before you commit.
Ready when you are
Ready in days, not weeks, flat monthly pricing, no setup or per-transaction fees — healthcare X12 included on every paid plan. See pricing first, or message sales by email about your partner mandate.
