Small clinics lose a fifth of their appointments to no-shows

The problem

Single-doctor practices and small dental clinics see 15 to 25 percent of booked slots go empty. Reminder texts exist, but they barely move the number, and the clinic still eats the cost of the hour. I ran a one-page test offer with 60 clinics: 19 asked to be contacted when it launches.

    Does this need any integration with the clinic's existing booking software?

    Seller · Sep 11, 2026, 7:06 AM

    It works alongside whatever booking system the clinic already uses. No integration is required for the first version.
