AI virtual receptionist for healthcare and small business
Most callers who reach voicemail do not leave a message. They hang up and call the next business on Google, and you never find out they existed.
An AI receptionist answers every one of those calls instantly, in your business name, with the answers and booking options your best receptionist would give.
Lunch, evenings, weekends and busy hours are when most calls are missed.
Hours, location, prices and “do you take my insurance?” interrupt the team all day.
Form and chat leads that wait hours for a reply book with a competitor.
More staff costs more and still leaves after-hours calls unanswered.
Natural-sounding voice AI answers instantly, 24/7, including overflow when your lines are busy.
Checks live availability and books into your calendar, CRM or practice software.
Trained on your services, prices, policies and FAQs, with answers you approve.
Replies to SMS, web chat and Google Business Profile messages and follows up every new lead.
Transfers or alerts the right person for urgent, sensitive or complex calls.
Every call recorded, transcribed and summarised, with monthly reporting on calls and bookings.
Our AI receptionist software for clinics is configured with HIPAA safeguards: Business Associate Agreements with vendors, encryption, limited access and minimum necessary data. It never gives medical advice and escalates clinical questions to staff.
For small businesses outside healthcare, the same receptionist answers, qualifies and books customers with your own scripts and rules.
Callers are told they are speaking with an AI assistant and that calls are recorded, which covers two-party consent states such as Florida.
AI receptionist for healthcare: new patients, scheduling, refills routing and reminders.
Exams, hygiene, emergencies and recall, answered and booked 24/7.
Evaluations booked and plan-of-care patients kept on track.
AI receptionist for small business owners who cannot staff the phone all day.

The market rate for a practice website is roughly $4,000 to $8,000 up front, then $300 or more a month to maintain, then a rebuild every few years. Growth Engine covers the build, the hosting, the ongoing improvement and an AI receptionist that costs most practices $700 to $1,400 on its own. Add-ons: additional location $500/month · standalone creative subscription $1,500/month · extra treatment page $300 each. Prefer to own your website outright with no subscription? A one-time build is $5,997. Running 4+ locations or a dental group? Book a call for custom Enterprise / DSO pricing. See full pricing. UAE clients are billed in USD; VAT may apply depending on your emirate and registration.
An AI receptionist answers your phone calls and messages, greets callers in your business name, answers common questions, books and reschedules appointments, takes messages, follows up leads and routes urgent calls to staff, 24 hours a day.
AI receptionist services typically cost $300 to $1,500 a month depending on call volume, channels and integrations. Ours is $997 a month plus $500 setup, fully managed.
For most clinics and small businesses, yes. A few extra bookings a month from calls that would have gone to voicemail usually cover the cost, before counting staff time saved.
AI can take over routine calls, after-hours coverage and lead follow-up, but people are still better for in-person service and sensitive or complex conversations. Most businesses use AI to support their receptionist, not replace them.
It can be. The provider must sign a Business Associate Agreement, encrypt and limit access to call data and avoid storing more than needed. We configure our AI receptionist for healthcare with these safeguards.
It is a virtual receptionist powered by AI instead of a remote human agent. It works 24/7 at a flat cost and books directly into your calendar.
