What happens the next time Maple Grove Family Dental misses a call

A caller who reaches voicemail often tries the next office. This page shows, with your name on it, how each missed call, new-patient form and finished visit gets a friendly follow-up text, with nothing extra for your front desk to do.

This is a sample. The patients below are made up, and no message has been sent to anyone.

Estimated patients recovered per month

Estimated revenue recovered per month

Compared with the Growth plan at $79 a month, that is about the cost.

Who is behind this

Arch City Automation is run by Aiden, a college student in Columbus. It is a one-person business, not a big software company, so it is not as polished as the large systems. That is why it costs a fraction of what they charge.

In return you get a simple price, a free first week, one person who answers your emails, and the freedom to cancel with one email.

Pricing

No contract. Cancel any time with one email, and you are not billed again. Each plan includes up to 500 texts a month.

Try it free. The first week is free. If there is anything you do not like, cancel with one email and you owe nothing. No setup fee.

How it starts, all by email

  1. Email us with your practice name, using the button below.
  2. I send a short setup form. You fill in your booking link, your office hours, and how you want the texts worded.
  3. You approve every message. I register your texting number with the phone carriers and send forwarding instructions for your phone system.
  4. We switch on missed-call text-back first, then the rest once you are happy with it.

Typical setup takes 1 to 3 weeks. Most of that is the phone carriers approving your texting number. Your free week starts the day the texts go live.

Safeguards built in

Consent first

New-patient and review texts go only to people who agreed to receive texts. The consent is recorded.

Quiet hours

No texts between 9 pm and 8 am. Late calls get their text in the morning.

STOP always works

One reply unsubscribes the number from everything and cancels anything waiting to send.

A full record

Every message is logged with its time, recipient and exact wording.

Questions

Does this replace our phones or our front desk?

No. Your phones and your team stay exactly as they are. This only acts when a call goes unanswered, when a form comes in, or after a visit is marked complete.

Who are the texts from, and what if a patient replies?

They come from a local number set up for your office and read like a note from your front desk. Replies are saved for your team and listed in your weekly summary.

What about patient privacy?

Texts contain a first name, your office name and your links. They never contain appointment details or health information. Before we handle any patient information we sign a Business Associate Agreement with you.

Who gets texted?

A missed caller gets one reply to the call they just made. New-patient and review texts go only to people who agreed to texts. Anyone who replies STOP is never texted again.

What if we want to stop?

No contract. Cancel any time with one email, and you are not billed again.

Is there a guarantee it brings in new patients?

No, and we will not promise one. The estimate on this page uses numbers you can change. The first week is free, so you can judge it on your own calls.
