Most practices lose new clients between the first call and the first form. Abby closes that gap: the AI Receptionist takes intake conversationally, in your words, checks the live IntakeQ schedule, and books the first session while Rohan is still on the line. His answers arrive in IntakeQ as a record your team can act on, and IntakeQ sends him its usual confirmation and reminders.
By the time you review it, the caller is a client with a chart and a Thursday afternoon appointment, not a name on a sticky note.
Intake Without The Clipboard
Your questions, asked well. During onboarding we set up your intake script from the questions your IntakeQ forms already ask, so phone intake and web intake land in the same pipeline, in the same shape. Booking follows your rules too: which practitioners and services the AI Receptionist may offer, and whether appointments book as confirmed or wait for your approval.
Sensitive by default. Receptionists follow your instructions on what to ask and what to leave for the practitioner, notes from the call travel in the Abby call summary rather than into the clinical record, and HIPAA-compliant options are available. Live US-based receptionists are on the same plan for the calls you want a person to take: answering, screening, taking messages, and capturing a caller's request in full for your team. Intake that lands in the chart, and the booking with it, is the AI Receptionist's work.
Where Each Caller Goes
New client calls→Intake captured per your script, a new IntakeQ client record created, and the first appointment booked from your live schedule, with IntakeQ's confirmation sent.
Existing client wants to move or cancel→The AI Receptionist finds their appointment by name or email, offers other open times, and moves it, or cancels it per your rules, confirming the change on the call.
Existing client has a question→Message taken and relayed to the right practitioner, with the conversation summarized.
Something urgent→Routed per your instructions: warm transfer, text, or immediate escalation.

2Abby answers in your practice's name, takes intake conversationally, and books from your live IntakeQ schedule while the caller is on the line.
3Every conversation lands in IntakeQ: new client records and appointments for new clients, changes and messages for existing ones, with IntakeQ sending its confirmations and reminders.
