Dental call scoring

AI call scoring for
dental practices.

Speak AI listens to every new patient call and scores it against a scorecard you write: did the team member get the name, find the reason for the visit, handle the cost question and book the appointment. It reads the words, the tone of voice and, on video or screen-shared calls, what is on screen, then gives each person coaching notes tied to the moment in the call.

For dental groups, DSOs and the marketing agencies that run new patient lead flow for them. Free 7-day trial.

What gets scored

What gets scored on a new patient call

A new patient call is short and decides a lot of revenue. Most practices only learn that a call went badly when the patient never shows up. Scoring every call, not a sample of five a week, shows where the booking is lost.

Opening

The opening

Greeting, practice name, whether the caller felt welcomed in the first ten seconds.

Discovery

Discovery

Did the team member ask why they are calling, how they heard about the practice, and whether it is pain, a cleaning, a cosmetic goal or a family move?

Cost

Insurance and cost

Was the question answered clearly, without avoiding it or quoting a number the practice cannot stand behind?

Close

The ask

Was a specific day and time offered, or did the call end on “let us know”?

Capture

Data capture

Name, phone, email, date of birth and referral source collected so the lead is usable.

Voice

Tone

Warm, rushed, flat or anxious, scored from the voice and not only the transcript.

Scorecard

An example dental scorecard

This is a starting point. You change the criteria, the weights and the wording, and you can re-score past calls after you change them.

Criterion What the score looks for Weight
Greeting and rapport Practice name, own name, warm opening, caller addressed by name 10%
Reason for call Asked and confirmed the reason, pain level or goal 15%
Insurance and cost handling Plan or self-pay question handled; no dodging; no unsupported quote 20%
Objection handling Responded to “just checking prices” or “need to ask my spouse” without losing the call 15%
Booking attempt Offered two specific times and confirmed one 20%
Information captured Contact details and referral source recorded 10%
Tone and pace Calm, clear, not rushed; energy matches the caller 10%

Each call gets a score per criterion, a total, the quote from the call behind each score, and a coaching note you can hand to the team member.

Getting recordings in

How recordings get into Speak AI from a dental phone system

Speak AI does not have a direct connector for dental phone systems, dental practice management software or call dialers. Recordings reach Speak AI in one of these ways, and which one fits depends on what your phone system can export.

Folder

Shared cloud folder

If your phone system saves recordings to Google Drive, OneDrive or SharePoint, Speak AI can pick them up from that folder automatically.

Upload

File upload

Upload audio or video files from any system, in bulk, in any common format.

API

API and webhooks

If your phone system or a developer can send a recording when a call ends, Speak AI’s public API takes it.

Zapier

Zapier

Useful when your phone system can trigger a Zap but has no API of its own.

Meetings

Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams

The meeting assistant joins virtual consults and case presentations.

Results can flow on to HubSpot or Salesforce, matched by participant email, and to Slack or ClickUp. Ask on the demo which route fits your phone provider; we would rather tell you in the first call that a route needs a small setup than have you find out later.

Words, voice and visuals

Words, tone and screen

Words

Words

A full transcript with speakers separated, searchable across every call, scored against your criteria.

Voice

Tone

Tone of voice, emotion and energy are analysed from the audio. A call can read well on paper and still sound rushed or impatient. Audio analysis is included on every plan.

Screen

Screen

On video calls and screen-shared consults, such as a treatment plan walkthrough, Speak AI reads what is on screen and body language as well. A plain phone call has no screen, so this applies only to calls that include video. Video analysis is included on every plan.

How Speak AI compares with dental-specific tools

Dental call tools are built around the phone line: tracking, answering and booking. Speak AI is built around the scorecard and the coaching. Many practices will want both. Table based on each vendor’s own site.

Product What its own site says Call scoring stated? Pricing shown publicly
Speak AI Scores calls on your own scorecard using words, tone and screen; coaching notes and dashboards across reps; no phone line or answering service Yes, custom criteria Free 7-day trial; Pro US$25 per team member per month (US$20 annual), up to 5 team members; pay as you go credits; Enterprise custom

CallRail Call tracking and recording with transcription and analysis; Premium Conversation Intelligence on higher plans Call scoring not mentioned by name Plans from $50 per month plus usage; plans with Premium Conversation Intelligence from $150 per month plus usage (billing period not stated on the page)
Peerlogic Call Intelligence (“see who called and why”), AI receptionist and text follow-up for dental practices Not mentioned No price on the page checked

Weave Phones, AI receptionist and Call Intelligence that analyses recordings and patient sentiment Term “call scoring” not used No price on the page checked

Where a dental tool is also your phone system, Speak AI sits alongside it: keep the phones, add scoring and coaching on the recordings. Speak AI does not connect directly to dental practice management software.

For dental marketing agencies

If you generate new patient calls for practices, scoring those calls shows whether leads are lost to marketing or to the front desk. Run one scorecard across all of your clients’ calls, or one per practice, and report booking quality alongside call volume.
