Ayura

The AI Operating System for Dental Practices

Ayura handles the documentation, billing, reporting, and phone work of a dental practice. Record the visit, send the claim, read the numbers, and answer the phone from one system that reads and writes to the practice management software you already run.

Built by a team with a decade of experience in healthcare engineering and RCM.

Notes, codes, and claim status are written back to the system of record, so the chart and the ledger stay correct without anyone retyping them. Working with something else? Write to us and we will look at the integration.

Scribe

The Scribe writes the chart note from the visit itself. The clinician presses record once, works the way they always work, and reads a finished SOAP note afterwards. The note quotes the visit and nothing else: findings, tooth numbers, and treatment come from what was said in the room, so there is nothing to unpick before it goes in the chart.

Recording works in the browser and on Apple Watch, so the note starts whether the clinician is at the chair or walking between operatories. The recording, the transcript, and the note stay together, which is what makes the note defensible later.

  1. 01

    Record

    One button on the web or the Apple Watch. Nothing to set up in the room.

  2. 02

    Transcribe

    The audio is transcribed with dental vocabulary, so tooth numbers and depths survive.

  3. SOAP

    03

    Draft the note

    The transcript becomes a SOAP note. Nothing is added that nobody said.

  4. 04

    Review

    The clinician reads the note beside the recording and the transcript.

Sample visit recording

0:00 / 0:00
  1. Clinician Good morning Jordan, what brings you in today?
  2. Patient I've had sensitivity to cold on my upper left side for about two weeks. There's no pain when I'm not eating.
  3. Clinician Any changes to your medications or health since your last visit?
  4. Patient No, nothing new. And no allergies.
  5. Clinician Tooth number fourteen, the MO composite has marginal breakdown. Cold test lingers about three seconds. Probing depths are two to three millimeters, no swelling, no mobility. The bitewing shows recurrent decay under the restoration.
  6. Patient Is that serious?
  7. Clinician It's reversible pulpitis on fourteen, with recurrent caries. We'll replace the composite today and apply fluoride varnish. I want to see you back in two weeks.
  8. Patient That sounds good.

Revenue Cycle Management

Ayura posts claims and works them until they are paid. We build around in-house billing teams: the workflow is fitted to how your team already bills, and your team keeps control of the account. Ayura does the repetitive part.

Claim submission
We post claims with the detail payers ask for: procedure codes, narratives, attachments, and the clinical support pulled from the note.
Denials
Every denial is read, categorized, corrected, and resubmitted. The reason codes feed back into how the next claim is built.
Claim statusing
Claims are chased from submission to payment, so nothing sits in a queue waiting for someone to notice it.
AI voice calling
Ayura calls insurance companies to check status, work a denial, and confirm benefits, then writes the result back to the claim.

Work a claim

Step through a real claim lifecycle, open a denial to see the correction Ayura applies, and listen to a call to the payer with the answers written back as they are given.

Claim #48120 · Jordan Alvarez

Practice Analytics

Ayura reads the practice management system every night and turns it into the numbers an owner actually runs the practice on: production against collections, case acceptance by provider, hygiene reappointment, AR aging, and the treatment that was planned but never booked.

The reports arrive without anyone exporting a spreadsheet, and they agree with the ledger because they come from it. Multi-location practices see each site on the same page and compared on the same definitions.

Where the money is sitting

  • Treatment planned in the last 90 days with no appointment booked. Ayura ranks it by value and by how long it has been sitting, and hands the front desk a call list.

AI Voice Intake

The phone is where a practice loses patients. Ayura answers it, handles the call, and hands the front desk a booked appointment with the history already collected.

  • Answers the practice line when the front desk cannot.
  • Books, moves, and confirms appointments.
  • Collects medical history and insurance details before the visit.
