My dog ate chocolate! It's 2AM — what do I do?!
I understand you're worried. Chocolate can be harmful to dogs. Can you tell me your dog's size and approximately how much chocolate they ate?
She's a 10kg beagle and ate maybe 100g of dark chocolate about an hour ago
Based on what you've described, this needs immediate attention. I'm alerting Dr. Chen now and sending her your details. She'll call you back within 5 minutes. Stay by your phone.

The Hidden Cost of Missed Calls

😴
Woken Up for Nothing
Your phone rings at 2AM. Heart racing, you answer — and it's someone asking about vaccine prices. Now you're wide awake. Again.
📱
Voicemail = Lost Client
When it goes to voicemail, 62% of callers hang up and call someone else. That worried pet owner at 2AM? They drove to the emergency hospital — and now they're their client.
💸
Burnout is Real
You didn't become a vet to be on-call 24/7. But someone has to answer. The choice between sleep and service is exhausting — and unsustainable.

AIVA answers every after-hours call, filters the routine stuff, and only wakes you for true emergencies. You stay the hero — without the burnout.

🚨 Real emergencies? You get woken up. Everything else? Handled.

Questions from Fellow Vets

Can AIVA actually handle veterinary emergencies? +

AIVA is trained to detect keywords and phrases that may indicate a veterinary emergency — such as toxin ingestion, bloat symptoms, trauma, or breathing difficulties. When detected, she immediately routes the caller to your on-call vet or provides the nearest emergency hospital's contact information. Important: AIVA does not provide medical diagnosis or triage — she performs keyword-based detection and routing only. Callers experiencing a life-threatening emergency should always be directed to contact an emergency veterinary hospital immediately.

Will it integrate with my practice management software? +

AIVA integrates with ezyVet, Cornerstone, AVImark, Vetspire, and most major veterinary practice management systems. Appointments booked by AIVA appear directly in your schedule. If you use something else, our team can usually build a custom integration.

What if a caller specifically asks for a human? +

AIVA gracefully transfers to a human when requested. During business hours, calls go to your reception. After hours, she takes a detailed message and schedules a callback — or transfers to your on-call vet if it's urgent. No one is ever stuck talking to AI against their will.

How long does setup actually take? +

Most clinics are fully live within 24-48 hours. You'll spend about 15 minutes answering questions about your practice. Our team handles all the technical setup, software integration, and phone routing. We also do a test call with you before going live.

Is my patient data secure? +

Absolutely. We're built on enterprise-grade infrastructure with end-to-end encryption. We're Australian Privacy Act compliant and can sign BAAs for practices that need them. Call recordings and transcripts are stored securely and accessible only to your authorized staff. We never use your data to train AI models.

What if AIVA makes a mistake? +

AIVA errs on the side of caution. When uncertain, she escalates to a human. You can review all call transcripts and provide feedback that improves her responses for your specific practice. In thousands of calls, the most common "mistake" is being overly cautious — which is exactly what you want in veterinary care.

How AI Reception Works for Vet Clinics

Real examples, real call transcripts, and a step-by-step setup guide. From the book "The AI VA: How to Replace Your Virtual Assistant with Voice & AI Agents."

Real Call Examples

These are based on actual call patterns handled by AIVA's veterinary AI receptionist. The AI uses emergency keyword detection to distinguish urgent from routine calls.

EMERGENCY DETECTED Saturday 11:30PM
Caller
My dog just ate a whole block of dark chocolate — she's a small beagle, maybe 10 kilos. What do I do?
AIVA
I understand you're worried, and you're right to call. Dark chocolate can be dangerous for a dog that size. How long ago did she eat it?
Caller
About an hour ago. She seems okay but I'm really worried.
AIVA — Emergency Route
Based on what you've described, this needs veterinary attention tonight. I'm alerting Dr. Chen now and sending her your details. She'll call you back within 5 minutes. Stay by your phone, and don't try to make your dog vomit unless the vet tells you to.
How it works: AIVA detected "chocolate", "ate", and the small dog weight as emergency keywords. The call was escalated to the on-call vet within 10 seconds. No voicemail. No delay.
ROUTINE — APPOINTMENT BOOKED Tuesday 7:15PM
Caller
Hi, I need to book my cat in for her annual vaccination. Is there anything available this week?
AIVA
Of course! I can help with that. Could I get your name and your cat's name? And is there a particular day that works best for you?
Caller
It's Sarah, and the cat is Milo. Thursday morning would be great.
AIVA
I've booked Milo in for a vaccination appointment on Thursday morning. You'll receive a confirmation text shortly. Is there anything else I can help with, Sarah?
How it works: No emergency keywords detected. AIVA handled the entire booking without waking anyone up. The appointment appears in the practice management system the next morning.
MEDICATION REFILL — QUEUED Sunday 3:20PM
Caller
Hi, I need to refill my dog's heart medication — Vetmedin. We're running out tomorrow.
AIVA
I've noted a refill request for Vetmedin. Can I confirm your name and your dog's name so the vet can approve it first thing Monday morning?
How it works: AIVA recognized this as a medication refill (not an emergency). The request was logged for vet approval on Monday. The caller didn't have to leave a voicemail or wait until business hours to make the request.

Setup Guide: Your Clinic, Live in 24 Hours

Step 1: Sign Up & Choose Your Plan

Visit aiva.help/signup and select Veterinary as your industry. Start with the 7-day free trial — no credit card lock-in.

Step 2: Choose Your Phone Number

Pick a local or toll-free number from real Twilio inventory. This becomes your AI receptionist's dedicated line. Your existing clinic number stays the same — you just forward overflow or after-hours calls to the AIVA number.

Step 3: Configure Your Veterinary AI Persona

AIVA automatically configures a vet-specific persona with:

  • Emergency keywords: hit by car, not breathing, seizure, bleeding, poisoned, collapsed
  • Terminology: pet owners (not "customers"), vet appointments (not "meetings")
  • Integrations: eVetPractice, Cornerstone, AVImark
  • Role: Veterinary receptionist with after-hours triage awareness

Step 4: Set Up Call Forwarding

On your existing phone system, set "Forward on Busy / No Answer" to your new AIVA number. Most PBX systems and mobile carriers support this with a simple settings change. Your clinic number stays public — AIVA answers what you can't.

Step 5: Test & Go Live

Call your AIVA number, pretend to be a worried pet owner, and listen to how AIVA handles it. Check your dashboard to see the call log appear in real time. Adjust your greeting or emergency keywords from the dashboard if needed. You're live.

From the Book: The AI VA

📖

Chapter 1: Why Voice Agents Are the New Receptionist

From "The AI VA: How to Replace Your Virtual Assistant with Voice & AI Agents"

Every missed call is a missed opportunity. But hiring a human to sit by the phone 24/7 is financially impossible for most small businesses. A Voice AI agent can answer the phone in a natural voice, understand complex requests, and perform actions like booking an appointment for roughly $0.10 per minute.

Real-World Example: A local trade business was losing roughly 12 leads per week to voicemail. By installing a simple Voice Agent to handle after-hours calls, they captured $4,200 in new revenue in the first 30 days. The cost of the AI? $32.00.

For veterinary clinics, the stakes are even higher. A missed after-hours call isn't just lost revenue — it could be a pet in distress. AIVA's veterinary persona is pre-configured with emergency detection for the most common urgent scenarios: toxin ingestion, trauma, seizures, and breathing difficulties.

Prompt Template: The Veterinary Receptionist

You are a veterinary receptionist for [Clinic Name]. Your tone is professional, warm, and reassuring. Detect emergency keywords: hit by car, not breathing, seizure, bleeding, poisoned, collapsed. If detected, immediately route to the on-call vet. For routine inquiries, book appointments and take messages. Never provide medical diagnosis. If unsure, say: "I'll have our team get back to you on that."

📖

Chapter 7: The SOVEREIGN Formula

The prompting framework AIVA uses internally

Every AIVA industry persona is built using the SOVEREIGN formula — the same framework taught in the book for building production-grade AI agents:

  • Scope — "You are a veterinary receptionist"
  • Objective — "Identify the caller's needs, detect emergencies, book appointments"
  • Voice — "Professional, warm, reassuring. Use Australian English."
  • Exclusions — "Never give medical diagnosis. Never promise outcomes."
  • Resources — "Emergency keywords, clinic hours, on-call roster"
  • Execution — "Responses must be 1-2 short sentences (real-time phone call)"
  • Iteration — "Confirm caller's name and concern before concluding"
  • Guardrails — "If unsure, escalate to a human"
  • Next Steps — "Log the call and send confirmation"

This framework applies to any industry. See aiva.help for all 20 supported verticals, or start your free trial to see it configured for your clinic.

Technical Reference

Veterinary Industry Configuration

When you select "Veterinary" during signup, AIVA auto-configures these settings for your AI receptionist:

{
  "industry": "veterinary",
  "role": "veterinary receptionist",
  "onCallRole": "on-call veterinarian",
  "terminology": {
    "customerType": "pet owners",
    "appointmentType": "vet appointments",
    "emergencyType": "pet emergencies"
  },
  "emergencyKeywords": [
    "hit by car", "not breathing", "seizure",
    "bleeding", "poisoned", "collapsed"
  ],
  "integrations": ["eVetPractice", "Cornerstone", "AVImark"],
  "voice": "Polly.Olivia-Neural",
  "language": "en-AU"
}

How Emergency Detection Works

When a caller mentions any of the emergency keywords, AIVA's response changes immediately:

  1. The AI switches from "booking mode" to "emergency triage mode"
  2. It gathers critical details: pet size, what happened, how long ago
  3. It routes the call to your on-call veterinarian via the configured forward number
  4. If the on-call vet doesn't answer within 60 seconds, it provides the nearest emergency hospital number
  5. The call is logged with an EMERGENCY tag in your dashboard

What Gets Logged

Every call generates a record in your dashboard with: caller phone number, caller name, call duration, full conversation transcript, AI summary, and whether it was tagged as routine or emergency. These records feed into your leads pipeline and are visible in real-time.
