What to ask Rain

Rain is the assistant in every screen, by voice or text. These are requests the assistant is taught for this role. It reads only what you may read, and anything that changes a record comes back as a card you confirm.

  • “Open the dental chart”
  • “Show dental lab cases”
  • “Which crowns are due back from the lab this week?”
  • “What is planned for the patient in chair 2?”
  • “Find the dental patient”
  • “Ask the lab to send the bridge for Mr Khan by Thursday”
  • “Get the old dental file”
  • “Check a scheme for dental cover”
  • “डेंटल चार्ट खोलो”
  • “Lab se kaunse crown aane baaki hain?”
  • “Dental lab ke case dikhao”

What Rain prepares for a dental assistant to confirm: create a to-do for yourself, a colleague or a team; mark one of your to-dos (or your team’s) done.

Say “Brief me” for a spoken summary of your day. More in the Rain guide and on what each role says.
