Every unanswered ring is a pet family walking to another clinic
Clinics spend thousands on Google and Yelp to make the phone ring — then bleed the leads they paid for when staff are rooming patients. The average practice misses 1 in 5 calls, and 72% of after-hours callers never leave a voicemail.

Hear the AI handle real veterinary calls — live.
Three unscripted demos across real scenarios — a new-client limping cat with full intake, an existing client's dog hurt in the woods, and a same-day sick visit for a vomiting lab after the beach. Live AI, no scripts.
New Client — Limping Cat with Full Intake
A new client calls about a limping cat. The AI gathers comprehensive health history including breed, age, medications, allergies, and prior vet records, then books a next-morning appointment.
Dog Limping After Woods — Same-Day Urgent Visit
An existing client calls about his dog limping after running in the woods. The AI assesses severity, checks for visible injuries, offers same-day appointments, and provides interim care guidance.
Vomiting Dog — New Client with Beach Exposure
A new client calls about a dog vomiting since the previous day after a beach visit. The AI performs triage questions, collects full intake information, and books a same-day appointment.
How It Works
Connect your clinic phone and PIMS
Our team integrates with your clinic number and practice management system — no hardware changes, no in-house IT. Cornerstone, AVImark, ezyVet, Shepherd, Digitail, Provet, Instinct — or any platform, via custom integration.
AI triages, schedules, and intakes every call
Pet owners speak naturally to the AI. It identifies the reason for the call, asks your clinic's triage questions, books appointments by species, procedure, and DVM preference, handles refill requests, and escalates real emergencies to your on-call DVM.
Appointments and intake sync to your PIMS
Every appointment lands in your PIMS with species, weight, reason, DVM preference, and intake history. Refill requests queue for DVM approval. After-hours triage transcripts arrive in your morning inbox — fully reviewed, fully auditable.

Built for how vet clinics actually take calls
Every capability designed around triage, scheduling, and compassionate intake — not adapted from a generic call-center tool.
Species- and procedure-aware scheduling
Not every slot is 15 minutes. A dental with extractions for a 90 lb Great Dane is not a kitten vaccine. Brainova is configured per-clinic: procedure duration by species and weight, DVM preference routing, surgery block protection, boarding and grooming on parallel calendars.
Triage, not diagnose
Configured to your state or provincial college's rules (AAVSB in the US, CVMA in Canada). The AI identifies urgency signals — pale gums, open trauma, seizures, parvo exposure — and hands off to your on-call DVM instantly. It never prescribes, never diagnoses, and every call is auditable.
Natural, compassionate voice
Callers speak freely — no phone trees, no menus. The AI detects grief, panic, and emergency in both tone and content, and routes to a human every time the moment calls for one.
Refill requests, handled
Moves the 20+ daily refill calls off your front desk. Collects pet, medication, quantity, and pharmacy — then queues to the assigned DVM for approval. Controlled substances always route to a human.
Reminders that actually recover revenue
Vaccine, heartworm, dental, and recheck reminders sent via SMS and email — with confirmation capture. Declined-estimate follow-ups at 48 hours. Multi-touch sequences reduce no-shows 30–60%.
Full transcripts & analytics
Every call transcribed, scored, and tagged by reason. See call-abandonment, no-show trends, refill volume, and after-hours emergencies. Syncs with Cornerstone, AVImark, ezyVet, Shepherd, Digitail, PetDesk, and more.
Whatever your clinic handles — the AI is tuned for it
Four real-clinic scenarios showing how different practice types use Brainova Talk — plus pre-configured flows for every patient type you see.
Solo practice after-hours triage
A DVM-owner with no overnight staff. After 6pm, the AI answers every call, asks your triage questions, schedules non-urgent calls for the morning, and pages you via text only for true emergencies. Your pager stops ringing for toenail questions.
- 24/7 answering within 2 rings
- Triage protocol configured to your clinic's rules
- Pages you only on true emergencies
- Morning report of every after-hours call
Multi-DVM appointment routing
A 4-DVM hospital where some DVMs do dentals, one does exotics, and one is cats-only. The AI identifies the procedure, the species, and the owner's DVM preference — and books into the right calendar on the first call.
- Species- and procedure-aware booking
- DVM preference routing
- Surgery block protection
- Honors existing-client relationships
Prescription refill overload
A busy small-animal practice where refills eat 20+ calls a day. The AI collects pet name, medication, quantity, and pharmacy; queues the request for the assigned DVM; and texts the owner when the pharmacy is filled.
- Controlled substances always human-routed
- PIMS-synced refill history
- Owner-facing SMS confirmations
- DVM approval dashboard
Emergency / referral hospital overflow
A referral center where the phone gates a stressed pet owner and a primary DVM's referral fax at the same time. The AI fields both streams — flagging STAT cases, scheduling non-urgent workups, and relaying handoff info directly into your PIMS note.
- STAT recognition on trauma, parvo, HBC, seizure cues
- Primary-DVM identified for handoff
- Multi-line, no-busy-signal coverage
- Triage log ready for the receiving DVM
Pre-configured flows for every patient type
Dogs and cats — wellness, sick visits, surgical, dental
Reptiles, rabbits, birds — routed to exotic-qualified DVMs
Compassion-first tone for grief and end-of-life calls
STAT detection, auto-escalation to on-call DVM
Block-scheduled with automatic fasting reminders
Parallel-calendar handling, vaccine verification
Vaccines, heartworm, flea and tick, annual exams
Ortho, neuro, oncology — primary-DVM handoff built in

What veterinary teams are saying
We're two DVMs and three techs. Brainova handles every after-hours call and half our refill requests. Our receptionist took a full lunch break three days last week — she hasn't done that in two years.

Multi-DVM PracticeER work is chaos at 2am. The AI triages every call, flags the trauma and parvo cases to my cell, and lets the non-urgent callers book into primary care for the morning. I actually slept through last Tuesday.

Frequently Asked Questions
About the Service
No — and that's the design. Brainova triages, intakes, schedules, and informs. It never diagnoses, never prescribes, and hands off to your on-call DVM on any clinical question. Every call is logged and auditable. The triage rules are configured per-clinic to align with your state board or provincial college (AAVSB in the US, CVMA/CVO/CVBC in Canada), so you stay license-safe by design.
Yes. We integrate with Cornerstone (IDEXX), AVImark, ezyVet, Shepherd, Digitail, Provet Cloud, Instinct, IDEXX Neo, Vetter, Pulse (Covetrus), DaySmart Vet, and more. If your clinic uses a different platform — a niche regional tool or a legacy system — we build the integration for you. Our team handles the full setup, including per-clinic appointment taxonomy (procedure duration, DVM preference, species, room and resource rules). No in-house development is required on your end.
You define what counts as urgent — trauma, seizures, parvo exposure, respiratory distress, HBC, heatstroke, toxicity, obstructions, whatever your on-call DVM wants paged for. When the AI hears those signals in natural conversation, it immediately texts and emails the on-call DVM with the caller's number and a situation summary. Non-urgent callers are booked into the morning schedule with a follow-up confirmation. You get a clean morning report of every call — reviewed, tagged, searchable.
All data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit. Infrastructure is built to SOC 2 Type II standards, with formal audit underway. Your clinic's data is fully isolated — never shared with other practices and never used to train AI models. In Canada, we operate in line with PIPEDA; in the US, we match industry-standard controls for veterinary records (not HIPAA-covered, but held to the same bar). Full retention-policy configuration is yours.
Yes — and it routes controlled substances (gabapentin, trazodone, phenobarbital, tramadol) to a human DVM every time. For non-controlled refills, the AI collects pet name, medication, quantity, and the owner's preferred pharmacy; queues the request to the assigned DVM for approval; and sends the owner an SMS when the pharmacy is filled. One clinic we onboarded moved 20+ refill calls per day out of their front-desk queue within two weeks.
Getting Started
Yes — and you control the disclosure language. Brainova supports configurable disclosure at the start of every call, intake, or recording. The default is transparent: the AI introduces itself as your clinic's assistant. Compassion-appropriate tone is a design principle — on grief, euthanasia inquiries, or escalated distress, the AI hands off to a human immediately, even when it would otherwise complete the task.
These are the calls that matter most. Brainova is configured to detect grief signals in tone and content — pet loss, end-of-life decisions, sympathy card requests — and hand off to your team every time. For scheduled follow-ups like paw-print delivery or sympathy outreach, the AI can manage the logistics (scheduling the call, preparing the contact record) so your team does the human part without the task-management overhead.
The AI collects everything your front desk would: owner name and contact, pet name, species, breed, age, sex, intact/neutered status, known allergies, current medications, previous vet for records-request, reason for visit, and insurance status. It books into your PIMS with the right appointment type by species and procedure. You can customize every question — nothing is a fixed script.
Every call is transcribed, scored for confidence, and flagged for human review when the AI is uncertain — unusual case, garbled audio, unfamiliar scenario, or any request that edges toward clinical advice. Flagged calls go to your designated reviewer (manager, lead tech, or DVM) before the appointment is confirmed. The AI can also hand off mid-call to voicemail or your on-call staff based on rules you set. You see every transcript, every booking, and every escalation in one dashboard.
Plans are custom — they scale with call volume, number of DVMs, PIMS complexity, and the level of after-hours coverage your clinic needs. Most clinics invest in the low-to-mid four figures per month, all-in: setup, per-clinic configuration, PIMS integration, ongoing optimization, human review tooling, and compliance alignment included. There is no separate setup fee and no annual lock-in by default — most clinics run month-to-month so you only keep going if it's working. We'll quote your clinic's exact number on the demo call.
