The problem

Phone tag and missed appointments

Patients call during busy hours, miss callbacks and forget appointments. Receptionists spend the day answering the same questions.

Capabilities

Designed for healthcare front desks

Appointment booking

Patients choose a doctor or service and a day, see open slots and confirm in chat.

Confirmations & reminders

Automatic confirmation messages and scheduled reminders before the visit.

Instant FAQs

Timings, departments, fees and directions answered from the information you provide.

Voice AI agent

An AI can answer WhatsApp calls with your clinic information and transfer to reception (when enabled).

Reception inbox

Staff take over any conversation, add private notes and assign chats to colleagues.

Patient broadcasts

Send approved announcements, such as new timings or camps, to opted-in contacts.

How it works

How a patient books

01

Patient messages the clinic

Or taps "Book an appointment".

02

Picks doctor, day and slot

Open slots are shown in the chat.

03

Gets a confirmation

The booking appears in the dashboard.

04

Receives a reminder

Before the appointment, automatically.

Real-world example

A clinic receptionist

The bot asks "Which doctor and which day?", shows four open slots for Tuesday and books 5:30 p.m. with a confirmation. The receptionist sees it in the dashboard without picking up a phone.

Business benefits

  • Fewer calls to the front desk
  • Fewer no-shows thanks to reminders
  • Patients get answers outside clinic hours

Who it's for

  • Clinics
  • Hospitals
  • Dental practices
  • Diagnostic labs
  • Specialist consultants

12Bot automates scheduling and general information. It does not give medical advice, and complex or sensitive conversations should be handed to your staff.
