ABA Rank is an independent, transparent index of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) software, services, and clinics. Three published tiers — Claimed, Verified, and Sponsor — apply identically to ABA practices and to ABA software/service vendors. Only the audience-specific visibility benefits differ. ABA coaches use a separate Free / Pro / Featured plan set (see "For ABA Coaches" below).

## Plans at a glance

### Claimed — $0 / month (Free)

Owner control of the public listing plus a prospect inbox. Up to 75 of 100 Index points are reachable through operational evidence alone.

- Edit services, age bands, insurance, locations, integrations, screenshots, and availability
- Capture inbound messages from prospects (families, referral partners, or comparing buyers)
- Earn up to 75 / 100 Index points through operational evidence
- 30-day listing analytics: views and inbound interest

### Verified — $33 / month (billed annually at $400 / year)

Everything in Claimed, plus an independent evidence review and a verification trust marker.

- Verified badge on profile and review surfaces
- Priority placement in 2 regions or categories where buyers compare options
- 365-day performance dashboard for views, messages, and ranking

### Sponsor — $100 / month (billed annually at $1,200 / year)

Sponsor influence is always disclosed, capped at 25 / 100 Index points, and visually distinct from organic rank. ABA Rank does not accept paid placement disguised as merit.

## For ABA Practices (clinics and care teams)

Goal: get found by families and referral partners. Most practices start with Claimed to correct their profile, then move to Verified once they want stronger trust signals in local search.

### Claimed — Free
Control the practice profile families see.

- Edit services, age bands, insurance, locations, and availability
- Show up with a complete practice profile instead of an unclaimed listing

## For ABA Software & Service Vendors

Goal: reach ABA buyers while they compare vendors. If ABA practices need to understand your fit before taking a demo, Verified and Sponsor make your category presence easier to trust and act on.

### Claimed — Free
Own the vendor listing buyers inspect.

- Edit category fit, pricing context, integrations, screenshots, and services
- Clarify who you serve before buyers shortlist vendors
- Receive messages and RFP interest from practices comparing options

- 90-day onboarding to optimize your profile and campaign
- Dedicated customer success contact

## For ABA Coaches (independent BCBAs and parent-training coaches)

Goal: reach families looking for a coach. Coaches use a tailored Free / Pro / Featured plan set (not the shared Claimed / Verified / Sponsor tiers). Most coaches start free, then upgrade for faster family inquiries and stronger placement in the coach finder.

### Free — $0 / month
Get listed where families search.

- Publish your coaching profile — credential, location, specialties, and availability
- Appear in /find-coach search and on your public coach profile
- Show families whether you are accepting new clients
- Receive family inquiries on the standard 4-hour delivery schedule

### Pro — $10 / month (billed annually at $120 / year)
Get seen sooner, reach families faster.

- Everything in Free
- Pro badge on your profile and in coach search
- A placement boost in /find-coach results
- New family inquiries within 15 minutes — not the standard 4-hour wait

### Featured — $28 / month (billed annually at $340 / year)
Maximum visibility and instant inquiries.

- Everything in Pro
- Prominent Featured badge that stands out in search
- The maximum placement boost — double the Pro weight
- Family inquiries the instant they are sent — ahead of Pro and Free

Coach placement boosts are capped and disclosed on /how-we-rank: a paid boost cannot lift a thin profile above a strong free one.

## FAQs

### How much does ABA Rank cost?

Three published tiers, identical pricing for clinics and for software/service vendors. Claimed is free and unlocks profile editing plus a prospect inbox. Verified is $400 per year and adds a credential and ownership review by ABA Rank, a verified trust marker, and priority placement in two regions or categories. Sponsor is $1,200 per year and adds the full sponsor-tier Index weight, sponsored placement above ranked lists where eligible, and quarterly print-edition inclusion.

### What is the difference between Claimed, Verified, and Sponsor tiers?

Claimed (free) gives owners control of the public profile and access to up to 75 of the 100 Index points through operational evidence. Verified ($400/yr) adds an ABA Rank evidence review and a verification seal. Sponsor ($1,200/yr) adds the full 25 sponsor-tier Index points and capped sponsored placement above the ranked list. Sponsor influence is always disclosed and visually distinct from organic rank.

### Does paying ABA Rank improve my ranking?

Only in the disclosed sponsor-tier component. The Sponsor tier is worth a maximum of 25 of the 100 Index points and is capped, labeled, and visible. The remaining 75 points are earned through operational evidence — profile completeness, claim and verification status, and qualified public reviews. ABA Rank does not accept paid placement disguised as merit.

### Can both ABA practices and software or service vendors use the same tiers?

Yes. ABA practices and ABA software/service vendors buy the same three tiers at the same prices, but the visibility benefits target different audiences. Practices unlock prospect messaging from families and referral partners and regional placement boosts in the clinic finder. Software and service vendors unlock buyer messaging from comparing practices and category placement boosts on /software and /services.

### Can I upgrade or downgrade at any time?

Yes. Tier changes happen from the dashboard. Upgrades take effect immediately so the new tier benefits — verification review, sponsored placement, print inclusion — are unlocked on the next ranking pass. Downgrades apply at the next billing cycle, so you keep paid benefits through the end of the period you have already purchased.

### What payment methods does ABA Rank accept?

All major credit cards and ACH bank transfers are accepted for Verified and Sponsor tier subscriptions. Annual invoicing is available for Sponsor-tier accounts on request. Claimed profiles are free and require no payment method on file.

### Is there a refund policy for Verified or Sponsor listings?

Yes. Verified ($400/yr) and Sponsor ($1,200/yr) tiers carry a 14-day refund window from the date of purchase, no questions asked. After 14 days, the subscription runs to the end of its annual term. Claimed profiles are free, so no refund applies.

### What happens if my Verified or Sponsor tier expires?

Your profile reverts to the Claimed (free) tier. You keep full profile control, all historical messages, and all data you have entered. Only tier-specific benefits — the verification seal, the regional placement boost, the sponsored slot, the print-edition entry — pause until the subscription is renewed. Index points lost from the tier component recompute on the next nightly rerank pass.

### How much do ABA coach plans cost?

ABA coaches list for free and can upgrade to one of two paid plans. Free publishes your coach profile in the ABA Rank coach finder and delivers family inquiries on the standard schedule. Pro adds a Pro badge, a placement boost in coach search, and family inquiries within 15 minutes instead of the standard 4-hour wait. Featured adds a prominent Featured badge, the maximum placement boost (double the Pro weight), and instant family inquiries. Current Pro and Featured prices are shown on the pricing page and inside your dashboard.

### How are ABA coach plans different from the clinic and vendor tiers?

Coaches use a tailored Free / Pro / Featured plan set instead of the Claimed / Verified / Sponsor tiers that clinics and software or service vendors share. Coach plans focus on how quickly you receive family inquiries and how prominently you appear in the /find-coach search, rather than on evidence verification and category placement.

### Does paying for a coach plan guarantee top placement in coach search?

No. Coach plans add a capped, disclosed placement boost — Pro is half the weight of Featured, and Featured is capped — so a paid boost cannot lift a thin profile above a strong free one. Placement is still driven mostly by profile completeness and qualified reviews. The exact cap is published on /how-we-rank.
