International patients call after your front desk has gone home. Price the bookings you lose

Phone receptionist from Frankfurt am Main

The desk is dark. The line is not.

Alfa Asistan answers your real phone line on the first ring. It switches language mid-call, checks the live calendar or table book, and sends a WhatsApp confirmation before the caller hangs up. Built for clinics that take patients from abroad, restaurants that cannot leave the floor, and field teams that are already on a job.

Ringing

    Three operations, one line

    Where a missed ring is a missed booking.

    Alfa Asistan is not a generic switchboard script. It follows the rules of the operation on the line: a clinic’s fee range, a dining room’s live covers, a dispatcher’s real route.

    01 · Clinics

    Medical, dental and health tourism

    Patients call from another time zone, often after your coordinators have left. The next clinic that answers takes the consult.

    • Intake in the caller’s language, with a switch mid-call
    • Fee range and timing from your approved notes, no clinical promise
    • Book, move or cancel directly on the doctor’s calendar
    • WhatsApp confirmation while the call is still open

    02 · Hospitality

    Restaurants and the ARM table book

    The phone rings in the middle of service, and after the pass it rings to nobody. Empty covers do not wait until morning.

    • ARM checks live table capacity, not a copied list
    • Party size, time and a seat preference
    • Allergy and occasion stored on the booking
    • WhatsApp to the guest, with a path to change or cancel

    03 · Field

    High-volume and on-the-road teams

    When every engineer is already on a job, the office line becomes a waiting room. Alfa Asistan qualifies the fault and files the next real slot.

    • Fault, postcode and urgency
    • The duty calendar, not a promise the route cannot keep
    • Job note to the office and a time back to the caller
    • Structured summary, not an audio file to sift through

    On your number

    Answered at the first ring. Language follows the caller.

    Keep the number patients and guests already dial. Alfa Asistan can take every call, or only the ones that hit a busy tone, a lunch break or a closed office. If the caller changes language halfway through, the receptionist changes with them. There is no transfer to a second line.

    01

    Your number

    The caller dials you. There is no detour through a branded switchboard they do not recognise.

    02

    Their language

    More than 30 languages. The switch happens inside the call, which is what health-tourism intake actually needs.

    03

    Live availability

    Doctor’s calendar, ARM table inventory or the duty board. The slot offered is a slot that exists.

    04

    Confirm and hand over

    Book, change or cancel. WhatsApp to the caller. Your team receives a structured summary and can pick up anything unclear without a retelling.

    European data sovereignty

    Frankfurt am Main, or the servers in your building.

    Alfa Asistan runs on infrastructure in Frankfurt am Main, or on your own servers if the record must not leave the building. On your hardware we run a local speech model and local language and voice models that we develop for this job. Call content is not handed over to train someone else’s models.

    GDPR is the design, not a badge added later. The caller hears at the start that an assistant has answered. What remains is the booking: who called, what they needed, which time was written down. Unauthorised recording of the spoken word is a criminal offence under German law, so there is no audio file sitting in a folder.

    GDPR

    Purpose before the pilot

    What is stored, where it sits and when it is deleted is agreed before the first real patient or guest calls.

    Record

    Summary, not a tape

    Your coordinators get a structured note they can act on. They do not get a recording to scrub for a name.

    Place

    Two deployments

    Frankfurt, or on-premise in your own building with a local speech model. Same operating idea, different front door.

    Limit

    A person still owns the edge

    If the assistant is unsure, or the caller asks for a person, the handover carries the summary. Nobody starts the story again.

    Missed-call revenue

    The bookings that never reached a calendar.

    Use your own figures. A missed implant consult, an empty four-top and a heat-pump visit are not the same ticket. The currency is euro, because that is how we quote the pilot from Frankfurt.

    Include evenings and weekends. That is when the desk is empty.
    Busy clinics and service floors often sit well above a third.
    Consult, table or job. A cautious average is enough.
    Not every call would have booked. Start low if you are unsure.

    Who picks up the build

    Two computer engineers in Frankfurt.

    Agen Alfa was founded by Eray Ayverdi and Neşe Cındık. We build Alfa Asistan in Frankfurt am Main, the same city the line can be hosted from. The 14-day pilot is run with us, not handed to a distant call centre.

    Eray Ayverdi Co-founder

    Computer engineer. Systems that are not allowed to miss the ring.

    Neşe Cındık Co-founder

    Computer engineer. Software a coordinator will actually trust at 8 in the morning.

    Before the first live call

    Questions from clinics and operators.

    Do we keep our phone number?

    Yes. Calls divert to Alfa Asistan all day, or only when you are busy, at lunch, or closed. Patients and guests dial the number they already have.

    What if the caller changes language halfway through?

    Alfa Asistan switches in the same call. There is no second transfer. More than 30 languages are available, including English, German, Turkish and Arabic. That is the point of health-tourism intake.

    Is the call recorded?

    No audio file is kept. Unauthorised recording of a conversation is a criminal offence under German law. Your team receives a structured summary: who called, what they needed, which time was booked. The caller is told at the start that an assistant has answered. Retention is agreed before the pilot.

    Where does the data sit?

    In Frankfurt am Main, or on servers in your own building. The on-premise deployment uses a local speech model and local language and voice models. Conversations are not used to train outside models.

    What does the 14-day pilot include?

    Fourteen days on your real number, with your greeting, your fee range or house rules, and your calendar. It ends on its own. There is nothing to cancel and no obligation to continue. Pricing comes after we have seen the operation, because a clinic calendar and an on-premise install are not the same scope.

    What happens when the assistant should not decide?

    Your team takes it. The callback includes the summary, so the caller does not repeat themselves. Where you set it up, the call can also be passed straight through. Medical advice is never given. An emergency is directed to the local emergency number, not booked into a routine slot.

    14-day risk-free live pilot

    Hear it on your own number first.

    We put Alfa Asistan on the calls you currently miss, for 14 days. Greeting, boundaries, which calendar is written to, and who receives the summary are set with you. When the fortnight ends, the line returns to how it was. Continuing is a decision, not a default.
