The math

Practices lose $100,000–$140,000/yr to missed calls.

Average new patient LTV: $8,000–$25,000. Average missed-call rate when front desk is overwhelmed: 3-4 calls/day. Each missed call is a patient who calls the next dentist on the list.

Your AI front desk picks up before the third ring. Books the appointment. Verifies insurance. Syncs to your PMS. Pays for itself with the first new patient captured.

Common questions

Smart questions practices ask.

What does Cecilia say when a patient calls?+

She uses the exact greeting you gave during setup — word for word. Then she listens to what the caller needs. If they want to book, she captures their name and number and texts you immediately. If they ask about your practice, she answers from your website.

How does Cecilia know about my practice?+

During setup we load your website. Cecilia can answer questions about your services, hours, and location from that. Want to update what she knows? Reply SERVICES [description] to your AI number anytime.

Will it sound like a robot?+

No. Cecilia uses a natural conversational voice. She adapts to each caller rather than reading from a script.

How long does setup take?+

About 5 minutes. Submit your phone number, get a local AI number by text, call it to test the greeting, then forward your line when it sounds right.

How much does it cost?+

$99/mo after your 14-day free trial. No credit card required to start. Just forward your calls. Lead texts and call answering included. Cancel anytime.

How do I know when a patient called?+

You get a text within seconds of every captured lead. It includes the caller's name and callback number so you can follow up immediately.

How do I turn forwarding on and off?+

Turn on: dial *72 then your AI number from your business phone, hang up when Cecilia answers. Turn off: dial *73. Full instructions come in your setup text.
