Product Capabilities

Our platform automates appointment management, including scheduling, rescheduling, confirming, and canceling patient appointments.

Patients and providers converse in natural language with AI agents powered by our Conversational AI platform to complete tasks, resolve issues, and find information. Conversations with our AI agents are free-flowing and bidirectional.

Our AI agents are context-aware, taking into account previous and current conversations with users when forming a response. Our AI agents also leverage secure integrations with EHRs to provide users with personalized and relevant information and assistance based on their records.

Our Conversational AI platform integrates with numerous EHR systems, including Epic, Cerner, Meditech, and others. In addition, our platform is equipped with 40+ out-of-the-box channel gateways, including with Cisco, Five9, and WhatsApp, as well as with email and contact center systems.

We are committed to protecting patient privacy. We are HIPAA compliant, as well as ISO27001, SOC2 Type II, and PCI-DSS certified.

Our AI agents can be deployed across any channel where humans also provide support (i.e. phone, text, webchat, etc.). Across all voice and chat channels, our AI agents conduct natural language conversations that feel like talking with a human.

Our platform is capable of conducting thousands of concurrent conversations. This capability allows the platform to scale when demand spikes, and/or as use cases and user adoption grows.

Our platform is always on the cutting-edge of AI innovation. We leverage the latest AI technologies and methodologies, such as agentic AI, generative AI, and LLMs, to deliver powerful solutions that drive long-term value for our customers and their customers.

AI agents built on our Conversational AI platform use the most up-to-date information from health systems' websites and content sources to deliver relevant and accurate responses to users.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Our Conversational AI platform is:

  • A voice-enabled platform for contact center transformation
  • Omnichannel (voice, SMS, webchat, etc.)
  • Fully interoperable with existing CCaaS technology
  • Able to respond using answers generated from a health system's website content, as well as from pre-determined FAQs
Differentiators vs Competitors:

Our Conversational AI platform:

  • Communicates using human-like natural language
  • Leverages our proprietary voice AI
  • Is end-to-end fully interoperable with Epic and other EHR systems
  • Is a universal platform for patient-facing, member-facing, and employee-facing use cases
  • Scales to handle thousands of concurrent interactions
  • Has financial stability from being part of the largest public conversational AI company
Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:
  • Patient portals focus only on EMR-based interactions, while over 50% of a consumer’s journey happens outside the EMR. Praia connects and activates services across and beyond the EMR, giving consumers one seamless digital entry point to everything your health system offers.
  • Patient portals don’t leverage non-clinical data (like interests, preferences, behavior, social needs) to tailor the consumer experience. Praia’s consumer profile and orchestration layer use clinical and non-clinical data to personalize content, offers, and services in real time for a true “n of 1” experience.
  • Patient portals make it costly and complex to integrate 3rd-party tools like virtual visits, bill pay, or community resources. Praia offers a plug-and-play integration framework that reduces IT lift, accelerates deployment/use cases, minimizes costs, and unifies third-party tools into the experience.
  • Patient portals do not allow health systems to customize their portal instance beyond the front-end user experience. All portal users see the same static experience — regardless of who they are or what they need. Praia delivers dynamic, personalized experiences based on user identity, behavior, and context, so the right people see the right content, services, and calls to action at the right time.
  • Patient portals control identity and do not allow for federated ID across systems or digital touchpoints. Praia acts as the identity layer across your digital ecosystem, giving you control over login, data federation, and cross-channel personalization — while still integrating seamlessly with the EMR.
  • Patient portals ds not easily share data or functionality with other digital platforms. Praia acts as a unifying layer across the digital front door, coordinating identity, data, and design across EMR and non-EMR systems for a seamless experience.
  • Patient portals are built for access, not activation. They don’t drive transactions, loyalty, or strategic growth. Praia transforms your digital front door into a strategic growth channel, increasing conversion, retention, and revenue by orchestrating the right experiences at the right time.
Differentiators vs Competitors:
  • The first and only consumer experience platform built within a health system and proven with millions of patients in a short 3 years.
  • The only platform that gives a full view of how a consumer interacts with a health system before, during, and in between visits. (We have the patents and data to prove it.)
  • The most frictionless consumer experience in healthcare, creating greater value across all of your patient facing tools.
  • The most cost effective and efficient orchestration platform to deploy new use cases and point solutions.
