What is Viva AI?
Viva AI provides a complete dental practice automation solution that transforms how dental offices manage patient interactions. The platform uses advanced artificial intelligence to automate the entire patient intake workflow across multiple communication channels including voice calls, SMS/text messaging, webchat, and email.
The system handles inbound calls with natural language understanding of complex dental terminology, manages outbound recall calls, processes payments securely, and provides practice analytics through an AI-powered office manager feature.
