About Podlantic

Built in Cape Town, for the practices that carry the hardest work.

Two co-founders, one office, and a conviction: the work around a practice belongs to one team, not four vendors.

The founding story

It started with watching good practices get buried.

Podlantic was founded in Cape Town by two co-founders who kept meeting the same practice owner: brilliant at the clinical work, buried under everything around it. Credentialing queues, empty recruiting pipelines, a website nobody could find — each handed to a different vendor, none of whom could see the others.

The conviction behind the company came from watching those vendors fail separately:

“A salesperson shouldn't sit far from marketing. SEO, intake and billing are one conversation, not four departments.”

So we built the one team: pods that run the credentialing, recruiting and growth behind ABA and behavioural health practices — recruited, employed and managed from Cape Town, working US hours, answering for one number. Before Podlantic, the team behind it built and ran operations at iStore, Vodacom and Netcare — retail, telecoms and healthcare at national scale.

Podlantic is a registered South African company, majority-held by the Vundla Group.

Why Cape Town

The right hours, the right language, one home base.

Your business day

Cape Town 15:00–23:00 is 09:00–17:00 Eastern — a full US business day on a humane shift, not a night shift.

First-language English

Understood by payers and referral sources on the first call — no accent barrier, no scripts.

A core team in Cape Town

A core delivery team in Cape Town, with a specialist network we draw on as pods scale.

How we're different

Your team. Not freelancers. Not an agency.

Every person on your pod is recruited, employed, equipped, trained and managed by us — and approved by you. They're not a rotating pool of contractors and they're not a ticket queue. They're your team, working your hours, in your systems, under their own named logins.

Core values

The five things we hold ourselves to.

Say the true thing

The uncomfortable number, the missed deadline, the thing we can't do — said plainly, first.

Trust is the product

Named logins, full audit trails, agreements before access. The service is only as good as the trust it earns.

Own the outcome

One number, one lead, no finger-pointing. We answer for the result, not the activity.

Humane by design

A sustainable shift and a real office, because burnt-out people don't look after your practice well.

You own everything

Your data, your accounts, your access — and if we build you software, your code, repository and hosting too. Leaving is always possible; that's the point.

How we're built

Real technology, built in-house.

Podlantic runs an in-house technology function that builds and maintains the Engine — the intelligence system every pod works with — and delivers the Tech Pod's builds. It's not bought off a shelf and it's not outsourced. That's how we can shape it to how your practice actually runs.
