What Arini does

At Arini, we’re building the operating system for dental groups. Phones are the backbone of dental operations - 80% of appointments are still booked over the phone - yet practices miss 20 - 30% of inbound calls. That’s millions in lost revenue every month. Patient engagement is the biggest bottleneck to growth in dentistry, and we’ve built the most comprehensive AI-powered patient engagement suite in the industry. Arini manages calls, texts, and bookings. We’re going after a $220B, overlooked industry that still runs on legacy systems and outdated workflows. Arini is bringing AI to every part of the dental stack.

AI receptionist for dentists

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built an AI-powered patient engagement suite that manages calls, texts, and bookings for dental groups. Our product acts as a digital receptionist that handles the majority of patient phone interactions, solving the problem that 20 - 30% of calls go missed, which limits dental practices' growth.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in San Francisco, CA, and plan to base the company here after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

San Francisco is where we live and where most of our team is based. It's a hub for AI and health tech talent, which suits our growth and recruitment needs.
