Your Website As Helper Robot

Original Article from IntelliSites, the smart choice for web design (and SEO!)
Now that so many of us are carrying web-enabled cellphones, people have a lot of options for staying organized. There’s a personal address book, calendar and email client on your phone, and on every computer you own.

But what if you need more than just personal organization? What if you need to integrate personal records and business records into a seamless, easy-to-use whole?

We’d suggest using a web application. But hey, that's just how we roll.

Let’s imagine that you’re a dentist. You run a successful private practice with hundreds of patients and a team that includes receptionists, hygienists, and dental assistants. As a dentist, your job is to provide top-notch care to your patients. But as a business owner, your job is to make sure your team works efficiently so bills can get paid.

Wouldn’t it make your team run smoother if there was a master appointment calendar that was easy to update and could be accessed from any computer?

Duh. That would be awesome. But it would be even better if, right from within the calendar, you could click on a patient’s name and view a summary of their records. Suddenly, you can prep for your next appointment without leaving the room!

What’s that? Your hygienist is out to lunch, and you’ve just booked an emergency bicuspid soak for her the minute she gets back to the office? I see.  And you want to let her know so she can come back a couple minutes early, but you can’t call her because you’re elbow-deep in plaster.

Wouldn’t it be cool if the system could send her a text message with that info?

Like Robots. But Without the World Domination Complex.


We know how to make that stuff happen.

We’re kinda like robot builders that way. We build powerful robots that live in your computer and get really excited about tackling repetitive tasks. Robots that would rather scoot around your office and deliver messages than take over the world like in the Terminator movies. Robots whose prime directives are things like “Help Doctor Susan” or “Make Office Productive.”

You know, friendly helper robots. Robots that free up your time to work on the important stuff. Like the guy down the hall who tried to make his own fillings from sawdust and rubber cement. That guy needs your help. And maybe also the kind of help a dentist can't give.
