For Licensed Canadian Opticians
The 1.5 Rule: 8 Sales a Week
Replaces Your 40-Hour Retail Salary
The Business-in-a-Box for Canadian opticians who want high-quality patient care, their own hours, and zero retail overhead.
Stop building someone else's practice. Start building yours.
The Math That Changes Everything
Average glasses sale: $650 CAD. At 8 sales per week, that's $5,200/week in revenue. Even after costs, you're earning more than most retail optician salaries—working half the hours.
Picture This
It's Tuesday. Same 24 Hours. Two Different Lives.
You have the same licence. The same skills. The only difference is where you choose to use them.
The Retail Grind
Someone else's schedule, someone else's profit
“You made someone else $15,000 this month. Your cut: $3,800.”
The IO Lifestyle
Your schedule, your patients, your profit
“Two appointments. $1,300 in revenue. Home by 4pm.”
Low-Barrier Entry
We Only Win When You Win
Traditional practice software wants thousands upfront before you've seen a single patient. We think that's backwards.
Success-Based Pricing
Low monthly SaaS fee
Starting at $49/month. Less than a single frame sale.
Small percentage when you sell
1.5-2% on transactions. We succeed when you succeed.
No contracts, cancel anytime
Month-to-month. No annual lock-ins. Your business, your terms.
Perfect for Side Hustlers
Starting your independent practice while keeping your retail job? Our pricing model means:
- Low risk to test the waters
- No pressure to hit volume targets
- Scale fees grow with your revenue
- Full toolkit from day one

From the Fleet
Opticians Who Made the Switch
“I replaced my retail salary with 8-10 appointments a week. I'm home for dinner every night and I haven't missed a school event in six months.”
Sarah Chen
Independent Optician, Vancouver
“Started as a weekend side hustle. Within four months, I was making more on Saturdays than my retail job paid all week. Now it's full-time.”
Michael Torres
IO since 2024, Toronto
“The order-on-demand model changed everything. I show clients premium frames they can't get at retail chains, and I don't carry any inventory.”
Emily Richardson
Mobile Optician, Calgary
