    What Volty does with Plato Medical

    Book after hours

    A patient asks for a slot at 9.40pm. Volty finds them in Plato, offers free times inside opening hours as buttons, and books the one they tap.

    A WhatsApp conversation in Volty at 9.40pm. The patient asks to see the doctor tomorrow morning, Volty offers three free times as buttons, the patient taps 9:30 am and Volty confirms the booking.

    Move an appointment

    Volty moves the existing appointment to the new time in Plato, so the clinic never holds two bookings for one visit.

    Confirm from a reminder

    A reminder goes out on WhatsApp. When the patient replies that they are coming, Volty marks the appointment confirmed in Plato.

    Cancel with a check

    Volty asks the patient to confirm with a button before it cancels, then records the cancellation the way the clinic does: on the cancelled calendar, with the cancelled code, or as a deletion.

    Answer invoice questions

    A patient asking what they owe gets the amount and whether each invoice is settled, read from their own invoices in Plato.

    How Volty connects to Plato Medical

    Volty connects to Plato Medical through a connector Voltade builds and runs. An admin adds Plato on the Sources page in Volty with the clinic's API key and database name, marks which Plato calendars Volty may book into, and enters the opening hours and the notice period for changes.

    The Sources page in Volty with Plato connected. It shows the clinic database, the API key stored for the organisation, the synced appointments and patients, and where Volty uses the source.

    Reads

    The patient, found by the WhatsApp number they have confirmed; free slots inside opening hours; the patient's appointments; the patient's invoices, with the amount and whether each is settled.

    Writes

    Book, reschedule, confirm and cancel. A cancellation asks the patient to confirm with a button first.

    Switches

    Every tool starts Off. Volty suggests On for tools that only read, and an admin applies the suggestions or sets each switch; a tool that changes a record, such as booking a slot, stays Off until the admin turns it on.

    The Plato tools in Volty, every one switched Off. Find patient, List appointments and Get slots are marked Read; Book appointment is marked Change and can be set to Off, On or Check with staff.

    Draft mode

    In a draft conversation, a booking waits on the draft and runs only when staff press Send.

    A draft reply in Volty that tells the patient they are booked, with the booking held under it and a button to send the reply and book the appointment.

    Notice period

    A move or cancellation inside the clinic's notice period becomes a to-do for the front desk.

    Patient data

    Volty keeps a copy of your appointments and each patient's name, phone numbers and chart number. Notes, identity numbers, dates of birth and invoices never reach that copy; invoices are read live only when a patient asks.

    Freshness

    Volty refreshes appointments from Plato every five minutes and whenever Plato reports a change.

    Prologue Clinic books into Plato from WhatsApp

    Prologue Clinic, a member of SL Aesthetic Group, on Voltade's AI CRM: 70% of WhatsApp enquiries are handled without a person, bookings go straight into Plato, and staff time on enquiries fell from about 3 hours a day to about 30 minutes.

    "Before, we were managing a lot of repetitive enquiries and customers asking the same things. Our customer service had to copy the same template from their notes and paste it into WhatsApp."
    Edwin Teo, Marketing Technology Lead, SL Aesthetic Group
