AI for vet clinics: end the phone tag
Toby Banks — Founder, Skillzy
The dispatch
New listings, creator interviews, the occasional discount. Every other Friday.
A vet clinic runs on a phone that never stops, staffed by people who should be with the patient. Every unanswered call is a worried owner who might just drive to whoever picked up.
What the agent covers
- Bookings, hours, and “do you do after-hours” answered the moment they ask
- Routine questions handled so the nurse is not the switchboard
- Callbacks and follow-ups captured and chased, not lost on a sticky note
- Urgent cases flagged straight to a person, fast
The hard line
It never triages a sick animal or gives clinical advice. Anything that smells urgent goes to a human immediately — that boundary is the whole point of building it carefully.

The shoot is the easy part. The enquiry, the booking, the gallery, the invoice — that is the business.
