AI Employees for Specialty Clinics
Dodo develops AI employees for specialty clinics, starting with veterinarians, fine-tuned on industry-specific knowledge and trained on protocols taken directly from employee manuals and playbooks, which often span multiple binders.
Clinics hire Dodo's labor-as-a-software to handle front and back-office tasks, enabling clinics to provide 24/7 service. Dodo answers calls, sends medical records, and refills prescriptions—fully autonomously, with no human in the loop.

Company Launches
Hey YC! We’re Dominik, Tim, and Julius from Dodo.
Dominik and Julius grew up together, and we have known each other for 15 years. We were all in grad school together and just moved up from Stanford.
TL;DR: Dodo handles front- and back-office tasks for specialty clinic end-to-end
- Our AI agents answer calls, send medical records, and refill prescriptions—fully autonomously, with no human in the loop
- We are starting with veterinary clinics, and are expanding to dental and physical therapy
- Same-day cancellations trigger automatic outbound calls, filling availabilities on short notice
- This means: No more hold music, phone trees (”press 1 for x”), or voicemail beeps (sorry if you like listening to jingles for minutes on end 🎶)
How you can help ❤️
- Know someone who owns a specialty clinic, independently or through a larger corporate/PE? We would be grateful for an introduction!
- Reach out founders@dodo.health or book time on our calendar.
Problem: Clinics can’t keep up with their admin work
- 🫥 Understaffed: Clinics face labor shortages for administrative tasks, with staff feeling burned out due to long hours and inefficient workflows.
- 🚆 Undertrained: One in three medical receptionists leaves their job each year
- ☎️ Phone-based: Clinics handle up to 80% of their communication over the phone
- ⏳ Result: Bottlenecks in the front- and back-office, as clinics miss calls and clients. They also fail to fill in cancellations on short notice, decreasing efficiency. Callers spend 67% of their call time on hold
Solution: AI EMPLOYEES for Specialty Clinics
- Handling all calls through verticalized AI agents trained on specialty knowledge and receptionists’ manuals (we’re talking literal binders 📚)
- Interactions with internal software to update patient files, manage schedules, and execute necessary administrative tasks
- Automatic outbound calls to fill missed appointments on short notice
