Rinovo: A Flat-Rate Smith.ai Alternative for Practices
Rinovo is a Smith.ai alternative built for practices that want predictable pricing: an AI voice agent answers every call 24/7 and books appointments directly for a flat $99–$499/month, rather than per-call or per-conversation billing. It’s HIPAA-aware and goes live in about 10 minutes.
What is Smith.ai?
Smith.ai offers AI receptionists and AI agents (with human backup) that answer calls and web chats, book appointments, and qualify leads. Its plans are largely priced per call or per conversation.
When Smith.ai is the right choice
Smith.ai is a good fit if you want a blend of AI and human agents across phone and chat and you’re comfortable with per-call/per-conversation pricing, or you need broad lead-qualification workflows beyond a practice front desk.
Why practices choose Rinovo instead
Flat pricing instead of per-call fees
Rinovo’s plans are flat monthly with included minutes ($99–$499). You’re not charged per call or per conversation, so a busy week doesn’t become a bigger invoice.
Purpose-built for practice front desks
Rinovo is focused on the dental/medical front-desk job: answering, booking into your calendar, FAQs about hours and insurance, and messages — not a general-purpose agent you have to shape to your use case.
HIPAA-aware by design
Privacy-first call handling built with medical and dental practices in mind, so sensitive patient information is handled appropriately.
24/7 answering with human transfer
Always-on AI answering that books directly, and transfers to a live person when a caller needs one.
