Plan Bfor PANS

Pricing · Non-profit

One path. The first part is free.

Your records, your daily tracking, and your synthesis are free — and they come first for everybody. From there one thing is paid: the Case Review, which is Rachel herself going through your child’s whole record with you. Built by Rachel Johnson (mom, researcher — not a doctor); every recommendation is a question to bring to your practitioner.

Plan B is a non-profit. We don’t make a cent on Minta — you pay only what your own usage costs. Working with Rachel is paid because a real review takes hours per family. Donations fund free syntheses for families who can’t pay, and the studies that keep Minta learning.

Step 1 · free, always

Start here. Everyone starts here.

$0

  • Upload every lab and doctor’s note — no limit, no charge
  • Answer the questions about your child — her story, her symptoms, when things changed
  • Daily symptom and behaviour tracking, free forever
  • Your synthesis — written by Minta, our AI, and every number read by Rachel before it reaches you

This is not a trial or a limited version. It is the main thing we do, and for many families it is all they ever need. Do this first either way — everything below is built on your child’s uploaded record.

Start free — no card

Step 2 · when you’d rather not do it alone

The Case Review

$400

You end up with the one document every doctor actually reads: a timeline of your child’s whole illness — what happened, when, what was tried, and what changed. You can build that yourself, and plenty of parents do. The Case Review is where Rachel builds it for you, from everything. Your synthesis is written by AI; the Case Review is a person.

  • It fills in all the blanks — catches anything the AI-generated synthesis missed
  • You go right through your child’s life, birth until now, and really dig into everything
  • You work out all the possible triggers, and the order of operations — what to do first, what can wait, what will make things worse if you do it too early
  • Every piece of bloodwork actually gets ordered, with the insurance codes
  • Rachel writes the letters to your child’s doctors for you
  • She sets you up personally with the tracker — and then keeps tabs on you
  • Includes your updated synthesis once results come in

No stone left unturned. It is overwhelming to land in PANS, overwhelming to learn all the fringe modalities, and harder still to work out what order to do them in. This is, honestly, a crash course on your own child’s health.

$100an hour

For families who have had a Case Review and want to keep going — new results to read, a flare that came out of nowhere, a decision you’re stuck on, or the next stage of the plan. Book an hour whenever you need one.

If this is your first time booking, you want the Case Review above, not this. An hour on the phone without Rachel having read the record first is the weak version of this. Once you have had a Case Review, the hour is yours to use however you like — all in one go, or in pieces across several short calls as questions come up.

If the money isn’t there, say so.

No form, no means test, no explaining yourself. Email Rachel and say a Case Review isn’t affordable right now and we will cover it. PANS families are financially wrecked by this illness — that is exactly what the donations are for, and nobody is going without because of a price on a page.

One more thing, so there are no surprises

Asking Minta questions

Your synthesis and your tracking are free and are never metered. Minta is also free to start, and after that you cover only what your own usage costs us — no subscription, no markup, no auto-renew. Plan B is a non-profit and does not make a cent on this.

Top-ups are $20, $50 or $100 whenever you want more, bought inside the app. You always see how many you have left.

Start free

Not here for yourself? Donate to fund a free Case Review for a family who can’t pay, and the studies that keep Minta learning.

Who I am

I’m not a doctor. I’m a mom who’s been where you are.

Three PANS kids. Years of doctor visits across more specialists than I can count. Watching the gaps between practitioners get wider while my kids got sicker.

So I did the work. I read Yasko, Walsh, Buhner, Crista, Klinghardt, Lynch, Stewart, O’Hara, Frankovich, Murphy — every framework that touches PANS. I built the integration nobody was doing.

Plan B is what came out of that. My husband Adam builds the tech side. I do the integration — pulling your kid’s full picture into one document that shows what’s happening, what hasn’t been tried, and what to bring to which practitioner.

Plan B does not provide medical advice. Every recommendation is framed as a question to bring to your healthcare provider. I’m not your doctor. I’m the integrator your doctor doesn’t have time to be.

Honest answers

What you might be wondering.

What's free, and what's paid?

Free: your records, daily symptom and behavior tracking, your synthesis, and a taste of Minta. There is one paid thing — the $400 Case Review, which is me going through your child’s whole record with you. After you’ve had one, follow-up hours are $100. Minta usage beyond the free taste is paid as you go. You only pay when you want a person.

What's the difference between the free synthesis and the Case Review?

The synthesis is written by AI. It reads everything in your child’s file and tells you what it shows and what to test next, and I read every number in it myself before it reaches you. It is free, and for many families it is all they need. The Case Review is me — I go through the whole record personally, we work out what’s driving things and in what order to tackle them, I get every test ordered with the codes, and I write the letters to your child’s doctors. That’s the difference: one is a machine reading the file, the other is a person deciding what to do about it. Bring either to your licensed practitioner; neither can guarantee accuracy or health outcomes.

Why isn't Minta just free?

You get a free taste, then you cover your own usage. Plan B uses a combination of leading AI models alongside its PANS-focused knowledge library, and every message costs money to process. After the taste, you pay for your own usage via token packs ($20 / $50 / $100), with no subscription. What you pay covers what it costs to run, plus a little that keeps Plan B going. Every answer stays saved in your vault.

Can I get a synthesis as my results come in?

Yes — results always arrive a few at a time, so you upload each one as it lands and Minta reacts right away. But a full plan — a protocol, sequence, or dosing — only comes from the human-reviewed synthesis, never from partial, unchecked data. That’s the safety line: the AI layer helps you understand; the actual plan comes from a human-reviewed read of complete results.

Do you give medical advice?

No. Plan B does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Every recommendation in the synthesis is framed as a question to bring to your healthcare provider. I’m a parent navigator and integrator — not a licensed clinician. Always coordinate with your clinical team.

What if money is genuinely tight?

We hear you — PANS families have already spent fortunes. The app, your tracking, and your first synthesis are free, and Minta gives you a free taste. If working with me would help but the cost is out of reach, email rachel@planbforpans.com — we keep scholarship spots open, funded by donations. We’d rather help you than hold a price.

Is my data ever sold or shared?

No. We never sell or share your child’s record. Anonymized aggregate data may inform cross-family patterns (e.g., “families with similar profiles found X helpful”) — but individual records are yours alone. Full privacy policy at /privacy.

Start free today. Bring in a person when you’re ready.

Upload what you have and get your first synthesis free. When your results come in, I’ll build your child’s real plan from them — personally reviewed, doctor-ready.
