AI Texting Check-In Bot.

A two-way SMS agent that absorbed the appointment dance.

Context

Where they were coming from.

A multi-site chiropractic group was burning two front-desk FTEs on confirmation calls, reschedule requests, and intake-form chasing. The work was repetitive, but every call still needed a human at the end of the phone.

We sat in on a single Tuesday afternoon and counted: 137 outbound dials, 89 voicemails, 11 actual conversations. The work had to be done. It did not need a human at the keyboard.

What We Built

The agent, specified.

A specialist SMS agent integrated directly with the practice management system. Patients receive a confirmation thread the day before their appointment, can reschedule by text, can submit pre-visit forms via a one-tap link, and can escalate to a human if anything looks clinical.

  • Two-way Twilio integration
  • Practice management system writeback (chart-of-record stays clean)
  • Escalation to front-desk Slack when the agent detects clinical language
  • HIPAA-aligned message storage
  • Pre-visit form submission with one-tap deep links
