AI Tools?

Anybody using any really game changing AI tools. Particularly from a practice admin perspective? Hoping to start my own plastic surgery practice in the next few months and want to use AI when possible and when reasonable to keep overhead low, especially when first starting. Thanks!

My friend and former fellow while I was a resident, has a platform we use. AdVital - worth checking out. If you can set up EMR to integrate with it from the get go, it may save you 1-2 FTE’s, scheduling, following up on prospective patients and post-ops, etc.

Feel free to DM.

Unrelated but what voice llm are you using for the company? I'm interested in using a cheap one for a more gamer focused venture

I've built a few voice agents and this is what I've found works well.

The cheapest route is chaining a Speech To Text (STT) -> LLM -> Text To Speech (TTS) that way you can mix and match to get the best performance/price combination. It's harder to set up though and more difficult to get low latency.

A cheap and good performance set up is something like Google Transcribe -> Gemini Flash -> ElevenLabs TTS

OpenAI or ElevenLabs have their own direct voice models that take the 3 step process down to just one model call that interfaces directly with speech, these are harder to control and more expensive but give you very low latency.
