Meet Aida, the AI front desk for physiotherapy practices. When you're mid-treatment — and in most practices, that's all day — the phone still rings, and someone in acute pain who reaches nobody simply books whoever answers next. Aida answers every call, day, night, weekends: she books intakes and whole treatment series in one call, refills cancellations, brings back patients whose plans have stalled, and is trained to spot the symptoms that need a doctor instead — in your patients' own language, 60+ of them. It isn't software you manage; it's a service that runs itself, 24/7.



The live line above answers today as our dental demo practice, the same Aida, the same
engine. Your practice's version speaks your treatment types and schedule rules from day
one.
Half-hour treatments, back to back, often with no receptionist at all — and every unanswered ring is someone in pain booking the next practice on Google, or a treatment plan quietly dying at session three.
Treatments run back to back in 25–30 minute blocks — and in many practices, the physio is the front desk. Nobody is ever free when the phone rings.
A back that just seized up calls until a human answers. If that human isn't you, they book your competitor — and stay there for the whole treatment plan.
Patients start strong, then life happens — and most never finish their prescribed course. Every unfinished plan is booked revenue that never lands.
Missed sessions, six calls to book six appointments, reschedules bouncing between voicemails — hours of desk time nobody has.
You set the medical route once — the caller's GP, the out-of-hours service, or 112 — and Aida follows it on every call, at any hour. She recognises the red flags every physiotherapist screens for (new numbness, loss of bladder or bowel control, chest pain on exertion, sudden weakness after an injury), sends the caller to the right place immediately, and leaves your team an urgent note. She never plays doctor: she screens, she doesn't treat.
Trained on the warning signs every physiotherapist knows by heart — and on the discipline to route them instantly instead of booking past them.
GP, out-of-hours service, or take-a-message-and-flag: your protocol, built into every call, with an urgent alert to your team.
Six everyday situations that cost physiotherapy practices money and patients progress — illustrative scenarios of how Aida turns each one into a booking. Pick one. Then call her yourself.
The acute-pain call at 21:40. The practice is closed, but someone whose back just gave out still reaches a warm voice — gets tomorrow's first intake, after a quiet check that nothing more serious is going on.
Aida is far more than a receptionist. She works your phones, your waitlist and your treatment plans — around the clock — and explains every decision she makes.
Mid-treatment, evenings, weekends — and the second and third call at once. She books straight into your live diary, never a message pad someone types up later.
Six sessions, one call: a standing slot with the same therapist, intake and follow-up durations respected, and single sessions moved when life happens — never the whole plan lost.
New numbness, bladder or bowel changes, chest pain on exertion — she recognises what isn't a physio problem and routes the caller to your chosen medical route instantly, alerting your team. Screening, never treatment advice.
Session three of six done, then silence? Aida notices, calls kindly, and books the remaining sessions — the patient finishes what their physio prescribed, and booked revenue actually lands. She refills cancellations and wins back no-shows the same way.
Fluent in 60+ languages, switching to the caller's the instant they do — no menu, no "press 2". Someone in pain gets warmth in their mother tongue.
Referral details captured when there is one, the insurance question flagged for your desk — never guessed at — and the patient told what to bring and wear. First visits start on time, fully prepared.
Pain doesn't check your language skills first — and neither does Aida. An expat who tore a hamstring at five-a-side, a grandmother who thinks best in Turkish, a student whose back locked up before an exam: she greets each one in their mother tongue and follows them if they switch mid-call. No phone menu, no "press 2 for another language", no second receptionist to hire. Just 60+ languages, on the one number you already have.
Nothing to install. No new system for your team to learn. You keep your number, your diary, your workflow — Aida simply sits in front of your phone.
We learn your practice — your treatment types and durations, therapists, schedule rules, red-flag route, your tone, what Aida should and shouldn't say. She's ready the same day.
~20 min of your timeWe arrange the redirect with your telephone provider for you. Your practice number stays exactly the same — it never leaves you.
We handle itFrom that moment she answers, books, screens, refills and rescues — and you watch every booking and every euro on a simple dashboard. Switch her off any time.
Runs itselfA rough, deliberately conservative estimate. Every euro Aida recovers is traceable to a real booking she made — if she doesn't recover more than she costs, she doesn't deserve to stay.
Assumes ~60% of recovered callers book, plus modest monthly no-show recovery and stalled-plan rescues — and a new intake is usually a whole series, not one session. Your real number depends on call volume and diary.
Aida was born answering phones for dental practices — real bookings, real patients, relentlessly re-tested by an adversarial AI. Physiotherapy is a speciality of the same engine: GDPR-first, EU-resident, fluent in 60+ languages, and taught the front-desk craft of a good physio practice.

A call about pain is a vulnerable call. Aida is built for care and for European law: EU-resident, consent-first, and transparent that she's an AI — by design.
Patient details and call data stay in the EU; nothing leaves the region for training without being stripped of anything identifying.
Aida never diagnoses and never gives exercise or treatment advice. She books, escalates and routes — red flags go to your chosen medical route, clinical questions to your physiotherapists.
Chronic pain, anxious callers, a bad day that needs a slower pace: Aida doesn't rush, doesn't sell, and hands over for a personal callback when someone needs a human. Some calls deserve one, and she knows which.
A separate AI stress-tests Aida on hundreds of patient scenarios and grades her. If quality ever drifts, we catch it before your patients do.
Aida didn't start with physiotherapy. She started on the hardest phones in healthcare — dental practices — answering real calls, booking real appointments, and being stress-tested by an adversarial AI on hundreds of scenarios. The physiotherapy version speaks your treatment types, your session counts and your red-flag protocol from day one, on the exact same engine.
It books. Aida writes intakes, follow-ups and whole treatment series straight into the live diary we connect at your setup call — your practice calendar today, PMS integrations as we grow — reschedules and cancellations too, respecting your therapists, treatment types, session durations and hours. A message pad that someone has to type up later is exactly what we set out to kill.
Never. Aida screens, she doesn't treat: she books, and she recognises red-flag symptoms — new numbness, loss of bladder or bowel control, chest pain on exertion, sudden weakness after an injury — and immediately routes the caller to your chosen medical route while alerting your team. Clinical questions always go to the physiotherapist.
Yes — that's her favourite trick. Six sessions become one call: a standing slot, same day, same time, same therapist, and she moves a single session when life happens instead of losing the whole plan. When a plan stalls mid-way, she notices and kindly brings the patient back before the progress is lost.
She never guesses and never promises. She captures the insurer and the question, tells the patient what to bring, and flags it for your front desk to confirm before the first session — so nobody is surprised at the desk, and the promise is always yours to make, not hers.
The opposite — you're exactly who Aida is for. If the physio is also the front desk, every treatment hour is an unanswered hour. Aida answers while you treat, you keep your number and your diary, pricing scales with your call volume, and you see every call and booking on a simple dashboard.
Pricing is tailored to your practice — it's based on your call volume and on what you need: inbound answering only, or outbound too (stalled-plan rescues, no-show win-backs, cancellation refills). We'll put an exact quote together for your practice on a 20-minute demo, and you can switch off any time.
See her handle your real scenarios on a 20-minute demo — or just call the line and be a difficult caller.
