Since 2010

Messaging isn’t a feature we added. It’s what we’ve done since 2010.

We were texting patients and sending human-sounding RealVoice calls back in 2010, and brought it all into one inbox in 2015. Plenty of platforms started life as a phone system or a review tool and added messaging later. Messaging is where we began, and it shows in the details.

The pioneers, not the newcomers

Two-way texting and RealVoice calls in 2010. One inbox for texts, calls, voicemail and email in 2015. After all these years, we’ve seen the little things an office runs into, and built for them.

We obsess over message delivery

A message that never arrives helps no one. So we watch delivery status on every message, work hand in hand with our carrier partners, act on their recommendations, and dig into any message that doesn’t get through.

Invested in your front desk’s success

We start with what your team needs and work backwards, building the features that matter and making them feel effortless. We set you up and move you over from your current service for free, and same-day go-live is possible.

Built with practices

Features offices actually use.

Years of listening to front desks went into the little things that save time and bring patients back.

Missed appointment alertsEscalations to ownersQuick-paste templatesAI-suggested repliesSend-time controlAI-supported confirmationsGroup closure messagesBulk messaging with pictures

All-inclusive plans. Only Bulk Messaging and AI Receptionist are optional add-ons.

See what we’ve built

Multiple locations

Built for groups, too. We’ve rolled out 40+ locations in a week.

Every office can have its own number and login, while leadership sees everything in one consolidated admin view. Setup and migration are free for each site, from $100 per location per month.

See how multi-location works

With the two way SMS, my staff can now easily and quickly find replacements for cancelled appointments. Re-scheduling is also quick and efficient compared to the amount of time they had to spend on the phone.

The human side of automation

Give your team back time for the people in front of them.

HourMine quietly handles the texting, reminders, intake and follow-up in the background. Your front desk spends less time chasing phones and paperwork, and more time with the patients in your chairs.

  • Routine conversations handled automatically, hand-offs when a person is needed
  • One calmer inbox instead of sticky notes, voicemails and missed calls
  • Built with real dental, chiropractic and medical practices

Unified Messaging

Lead with texting. Keep every conversation together.

Patients text first. HourMine brings texts and picture messages together with email and phone, all in one thread with patient and appointment context. Voicemails and calls are automatically transcribed, so staff can scan, search and respond without replaying recordings.

  • Text-first inbox with picture messaging, email and phone in the same conversation
  • Automatic transcription turns voicemails and calls into readable, searchable notes
  • Patient and appointment details stay beside every message
