After-hours and overflow calls are the #1 pain
There's no after-hours system, calls forward to the owner's phone, and everyone in the clinic answers phones.
Sai (founder of Fossa Vets) walks his cousin Dr. Nagaraju Kotagiri, who owns three vet clinics and is opening an urgent care, through an all-in-one growth package. Over an evening review, a morning drive and a first shadowing session at Aldine, one need keeps coming up: after-hours and overflow calls.

Nagaraju is unhappy with his current marketing vendor ("taking money but not doing anything") and has no after-hours phone system. Sai's AI receptionist, which books into Vetspire and warm-transfers to staff with a summary, got the strongest reaction: "That's what I need." This week Sai is shadowing each clinic to map its call flow, because every clinic runs on its own primary doctor's protocols.

An AI that answers and forwards only real humans. This is a new request, and it isn't clear whether it's part of the package.
"You also need to create an AI for my phone too — spam calls."
He wants Sai to learn from the manager, from Dr. Sahithi and from staff, not just from him, and to stay inside each doctor's protocols.
