The reminder call, without the reminder call

24-hour reminders that halve your no-show rate

24:00

until the reminder

Marwan S. - Dr. Ahmed

Visit is exactly 24h after the reminder

Play or drag to the end - the reminder sends itself

The problem

Egyptian no-show rates hover around 30%. Reception spends the afternoon calling tomorrow's patients to confirm, and half of them don't pick up. Then a third of the ones who did confirm don't show anyway.

Auto Reminders

The reminder is a WhatsApp message sent exactly 24 hours before every appointment. It's warm, in the patient's language, and includes a clear ask: 'Confirm' or 'Cancel'. One tap either way, and the appointment card on the board updates itself. Reception doesn't lift a finger.

Patient's phone

Hi Marwan 👋 Just a reminder: you have a visit with Dr. Ahmed tomorrow at 4:30 PM. Can you make it?

Board - tomorrow

Reception didn't touch a thing

Every answer has a path

If the patient cancels, the slot re-opens on the board and Kashfy tells anyone on a waiting list they can take it. If they confirm, the visit is marked green and reception knows to expect them. If they ignore the reminder, the AI sends a gentler follow-up 4 hours before the appointment; if still no reply, the visit is flagged as 'unconfirmed' so reception can call if they want.

No-shows, detected

No-shows are detected automatically. If a confirmed patient hasn't checked in 15 minutes past their slot, the card goes yellow. 30 minutes past, it's marked no-show and the doctor can move to the next patient without a conversation about it. The no-show gets tagged on the patient's profile - so next time they book, the AI can politely ask for confirmation upfront.

Half the no-shows

Long slots + patients who forget = no-shows. Reminders cut the no-show rate roughly in half in the first month.

Who this is for

A

High-no-show clinic (ophthalmology, dermatology)

Long slots + patients who forget = no-shows. Reminders cut the no-show rate roughly in half in the first month.

B

Clinic with a waiting list

A cancelled slot from tonight is automatically offered to whoever's on the waiting list. What used to be lost revenue becomes recovered revenue.

C

Procedure-heavy clinic where every visit matters

Filler, laser, minor surgery - each one is expensive to prepare for. Custom reminders start 48 hours out instead of 24, with prep instructions attached.
