SimplePractice Reminders don’t answer the phone
SimplePractice Reminders fire 24h / 2h / 30min text and email reminders, but they don’t answer when a parent or client calls back. Phone work still falls on the front desk.
Frontdesk is an AI receptionist that integrates bidirectionally with SimplePractice — extending SimplePractice EHR, SimplePractice Telehealth, the Client Portal, Reminders, and Insurance billing with 24/7 autonomous voice, outbound campaigns, and waitlist fill.

The Problem
SimplePractice Reminders fire 24h / 2h / 30min text and email reminders, but they don’t answer when a parent or client calls back. Phone work still falls on the front desk.
SimplePractice doesn’t run AI outbound recall to lapsed clients. It doesn’t backfill cancellations from the waitlist autonomously. Those are still manual front-desk tasks.
SimplePractice Telehealth is a great video product, but most new-client first contact is still a phone call — which goes to a human front desk or voicemail.
SimplePractice doesn’t cover after-hours parent calls, crisis calls, or weekend intake. Practices either hire a third party or lose the call.
How Frontdesk Works
Built for therapy practices and clinics on SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Jane App, CentralReach, TheraNest, Fusion Web Clinic — and every other major EHR. HIPAA-compliant by design with BAA, encrypted PHI, and audit logs.

AI Transcript
“Hi! I’d love to tour the 2-bedroom at Maple Heights. Any availability this Saturday?”
Frontdesk AI
“Yes! The 2BR at Maple Heights is $2,450/mo with a Feb 1 move-in. Saturday 11am or 2pm works for tours. Shall I book one?”
Frontdesk reads SimplePractice clients, appointments, intake forms, insurance, telehealth links, and Client Portal status — and writes new intakes, bookings, reschedules, cancellations, eligibility, and call notes back into SimplePractice in real time.
Looking for a 2BR around $2,400, move-in mid-February. Do you allow pets?
We have a 2BR at $2,450/mo available Feb 15. Cats and dogs under 50 lbs welcome. What’s your move-in date?
Captured
Frontdesk answers every inbound call in under 0.5 seconds with SimplePractice-aware context — knowing which clinician the caller normally sees, what was scheduled, and what intake forms are pending.
More capabilities
Frontdesk runs AI outbound recall to lapsed SimplePractice clients, backfills cancellations from the waitlist within 5 minutes, and follows up on missed appointments.
Frontdesk verifies BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare, Humana, Kaiser, TRICARE, EAP, and Medicaid eligibility through Availity, Office Ally, Trizetto, Waystar, ClaimMD, and Change Healthcare — and writes eligibility back into the SimplePractice client chart.
Frontdesk signs a BAA with the practice, encrypts PHI in transit and at rest, logs every interaction, and restricts access via SSO + RBAC.
For groups that run SimplePractice for mental health and separately use TherapyNotes, Jane App, CentralReach, TheraNest, or Fusion Web Clinic for other disciplines, Frontdesk handles all of them in one receptionist.
