DENTAL+OPTIONAL · AFTER HOURS
AI Receptionist.
Optional, always-disclosed coverage when the desk is closed.
An optional AI voice that answers common questions after hours, captures callback details, and makes sure real emergencies reach a human path. Always disclosed as an assistant — never pretending.

✦THE AFTER-HOURS GAP
Why this matters now.
After 5 PM your phone becomes a dead end — and dental worries famously peak at night. Some callers just need your hours or address; some need tomorrow’s first slot; a few genuinely need help now. A voicemail box serves none of them well.

?AI RECEPTIONIST · GOOD QUESTIONS
Will patients feel tricked?+
No — the assistant introduces itself as an AI from the first sentence. Patients care that they got help at 10 PM, not that a human wasn’t awake for it. Deception would be both wrong and pointless.
What does it do in a real emergency?+
It recognizes urgency and immediately routes to the path you define — your on-call number, an emergency line, or clear instructions. It never plays doctor: no clinical advice, ever.
Why “optional”?+
Because not every practice wants a voice AI, and it should be a considered choice — not something bundled in quietly. The rest of Booked works fully without it.
What does it cost — and am I locked into a contract?+
Pricing is quoted flat and in writing after your discovery call — you see the exact number before committing to anything. And there is nothing to un-wire if you ever leave: everything we build stays yours. The free Blueprint comes first either way, so you’ll know what we’d recommend before money is ever discussed.
