From activation to the first automated booking in just a few days
We activate the connection with your Alfadocs system. You don't need to change anything in your current setup: the integration works transparently.
The Virtual Reception answers calls, understands patient requests and checks availability on your Alfadocs calendar in real time.
The appointment is inserted directly into the Alfadocs calendar. The patient gets instant confirmation, your staff doesn't need to do anything.
Concrete benefits for your healthcare facility
The AI assistant answers calls outside office hours, on weekends and holidays. Patients can book at any time, and Alfadocs availability is always checked in real time.
Every booking, modification or cancellation is instantly synced with the Alfadocs calendar. No risk of double bookings or ghost appointments.
From the patient's call to the appointment confirmation on Alfadocs Medical: fully automatic. Reception staff are freed from repetitive tasks and can focus on in-person patient care.
By our estimates, an hour of calls handled by an operator costs €18-20 on average, while with AI the cost drops to about €6. It doesn't replace staff, but frees them for higher-value activities.

Experiences from healthcare facilities using Virtual Reception

The AI assistant gives us the ability to welcome our clients by phone 24/7, actively supporting our switchboard team during normal working hours.

We started our collaboration with Run2AI in September. From the very first months of setup, they proved to be serious, professional and very helpful. We've been operational since January and I must say that both the switchboard and the chatbot work great, offering patients the ability to make appointments 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Truly congratulations!
The Virtual Reception is a real breakthrough for our front desk because, thanks to the callback function, every request is automatically tracked and no patient goes unanswered.

Overall, the feedback is undoubtedly positive. In these first weeks, the Virtual Reception has proved to be a valuable support in managing closing-hour periods.

The feedback is positive and, after the initial training, the Virtual Reception performs adequately.
We are very satisfied with our new virtual colleague Monica, who is giving us invaluable help in managing phone calls, both with the information she provides and with callback requests, because she summarizes the subject of the callback request very well.
The system is working. Operators daily check the bookings made during extended counter opening hours and have not found any issues so far. Thank you for your constant availability.

We started working with Run2 a while ago and were pleased to find competent people who are quick to respond and to adapt to our various needs. Favorable opinion.
We are enthusiastic about the potential of the “Virtual Reception” platform: in these first months of use we have seen a clear improvement in how patient contact is organized. Special thanks go to the Run2AI team for their constant availability, professionalism and the attention they have shown in meeting our customization needs.

“Virtual Reception” is proving to be a tool with enormous potential for optimizing the flow of contact with our patients. The experience so far has been extremely positive, thanks in part to the excellent work of the Run2AI team: impeccable support, great availability and genuine attentiveness in adapting the platform to our needs.
We introduced Run2AI's Virtual Reception at our polyclinic, Centro Salute Raimondi in Gorla Minore, run by ARGENTUM, with the aim of easing the workload of our front desk and improving how patient requests are handled. The results have been very positive. One of the problems we wanted to solve was missed calls at the busiest times: today, thanks to Virtual Reception, patients no longer find the lines busy and can easily get information about schedules, appointments and procedures. The change has been important for our staff too: many repetitive requests are handled automatically, leaving more time for situations that need attention and direct contact. We are very satisfied with our choice. Run2AI has allowed us to use artificial intelligence in a genuinely useful and practical way, improving a service that is essential for our patients.

Their “virtual reception” is a very useful tool for shortening patient waiting times, improving perceived quality and reducing workloads. We have successfully adopted it at our Metica Medical Centers. Excellent support from Run2AI at every stage of the project, from adoption and setup through to the ongoing maintenance and review of the service.
Before talking about the excellent product, I want to highlight how responsive the company is to its clients and their needs. The product is very versatile, configurable for different needs and well integrated with external management software. In just a few steps you get a precise virtual operator that gives users the right information and books appointments accurately in the external management software. The management dashboard also lets us win back even the more “hesitant” clients, by keeping track of conversations. If you struggle, for lack of time or staff, to manage your communication channels, whether phone, web or WhatsApp, this is the solution.

After an initial phase of setup and data entry, the program starts to show its full effectiveness. For Biomedica srl it is an essential tool, because it lets us manage and relieve the flow of incoming calls in an orderly way. Without this service we would have kept losing business because we couldn't handle all incoming phone requests. Excellent operational support.
Run2AI's Virtual Reception reads Alfadocs calendar availability in real time, offers the patient the times that are genuinely free and writes the appointment straight into the dental practice's software. It reschedules or cancels existing appointments the same way, so your front desk never has to re-key anything.
A typical case: a patient calls in the evening for a hygiene appointment, the bot offers two or three slots, the patient picks one and the appointment appears in the calendar right away. If the practice has SMS or email reminders switched on in Alfadocs, they go out as for any other booking. The full picture for dentistry is on the AI virtual receptionist for dental clinics page.
Yes: if the patient asks for a practitioner by name, the Virtual Reception only searches that person's Alfadocs calendars. If they have no preference, it offers free times across every practitioner who performs that treatment, so they get an appointment sooner.
In practices with several clinicians this strikes a useful balance: loyal patients keep their usual dentist, while those who just want "a cleaning as soon as possible" get the first available date.
No: Alfadocs remains the master system. Treatments, prices, price lists and practitioners reach the Virtual Reception at the press of a "Sync" button; when you update the price list in your software, you simply sync again and the bot uses the new data.
If a request is ambiguous, the bot asks the patient to clarify before looking for dates (for example, whether it's a first visit or a check-up), and it also understands the everyday names patients use for treatments.
For each treatment you decide how the bot behaves: "Integrated", where it checks availability and books on its own, or "To handle", where it collects the request and passes it to your front desk. For a first implant or orthodontic consultation, for instance, the second option may make more sense.
With "To handle" the bot logs a callback request in the dashboard with name, number and summary: your team sees it in yellow, calls the patient back and marks it green, with a record of who handled it and when.
The Virtual Reception recognizes when a patient describes something urgent and doesn't carry on with a routine booking: if the practice has set it up, it transfers the call to a staff member straight away or triggers an alert; otherwise it advises coming to the practice or, in serious cases, going to the emergency department or calling the emergency services (118 in Italy).
The bot gives no clinical advice and doesn't assess symptoms: it deals only with information, bookings and requests. Like a receptionist, though, it can't spot an emergency the patient doesn't mention.
Yes, with the optional outbound calling module: a few days beforehand the Virtual Reception calls the patient about the appointment booked in Alfadocs, and they confirm, reschedule or cancel. The outcome shows up in the dashboard immediately and the freed slot can be reassigned; after 2–3 unanswered attempts, a WhatsApp message can follow.
For periodic recalls, such as a routine cleaning, you need solid patient consent: for proper campaigns, check with your DPO and with Italy's do-not-call register (Registro delle opposizioni). Details on the outbound AI call management page.
The Virtual Reception voice channel starts at €224 per month, excluding VAT, plus a one-off activation fee and usage beyond the included allowance; the Alfadocs integration is a fixed-price item agreed upfront. You get a quote on the first call.
Go-live usually takes 2–3 weeks, 5–6 days in the fastest cases: telephony, calendar integration and content run in parallel, and staff training is included. More answers are on the FAQ page.
