Zilo Chat in short

What is Zilo Chat?

Zilo Chat is an AI chatbot for clinics and hospitals in India. It sits on your website, answers patients' questions from your own knowledge base in six languages, books appointments, and passes the chat to your front desk when a person is needed. It keeps answering after your front desk has gone home.

Key facts

  • Six languages: English, Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu and Marathi
  • Answers only from content you publish; free-text AI answers are part of the Chat AI plan
  • A phone OTP is required before appointments, prescriptions or invoices are shown
  • A live inbox lets your team claim, reply to, transfer or close a chat
  • Added with a two-line snippet, or shared as a hosted chat link if you have no website
  • A hard daily AI budget, set in rupees

After hours, nobody answers

Most patient questions don't wait for office hours.

Your website is open all night. Your front desk is not. Zilo Chat closes that gap.

Without a chat assistant: A patient asks “are you open on Sunday?” at 11 pm. The website has no answer, and the visitor moves on.

With Zilo Chat: The same question gets an answer in seconds, in the language they read, from your own knowledge base.

Without a chat assistant: Reception is on a call while the same few questions keep arriving by phone, form and message.

With Zilo Chat: Routine questions and bookings are handled in chat, so your front desk keeps its attention for the people in front of it.

Without a chat assistant: You never see what patients wanted but could not find. Those questions simply disappear.

With Zilo Chat: Unanswered questions are listed for you, so you know which answers to add next.

A conversation that feels like your front desk

Patients pick their language, tap through guided flows or type in their own words, and get answers that come from your content, not from the open internet.

  • Guided flows for finding a specialist, booking a visit and learning about your services
  • Free-text questions answered from your own knowledge base (with the Chat AI plan)
  • Phone OTP before any appointment, prescription or invoice is shown
  • Not sure? It says so and passes the question to your team instead of guessing

Hi! How can I help you today?

  • Find a specialist
  • Book an appointment
  • Learn about services

Everything a front desk does at night, and the controls to keep it safe

Answers from your own knowledge base

The assistant answers only from what you have published. If a question isn't covered, it says so and passes it to your team instead of guessing.

You set the boundaries

Pick the tone, list forbidden topics and escalation keywords, and add a disclaimer.

Guided flows that book

Find a specialist, book a visit, learn about services: three ready-made flows to edit. Bookings land in Zilo Practice OS or your connected hospital system.

A real person, whenever it's needed

Chats wait in a live inbox your team can claim, reply to, transfer or close, with AI Copilot drafting replies from your knowledge base.

Private means verified

Appointments, prescriptions and invoices appear only after the patient passes a phone OTP.

A hard daily AI budget

Set the most the AI can spend in a day, in rupees. It stops at the limit rather than overspending.

Getting started

Up and running in three steps

  1. 1

    Teach it your clinic

    Start from the three default flows, then add the answers your front desk gives every day: timings, address, services, fees.

  2. 2

    Make it yours, then lock it down

    Add your colours, welcome message and logo, and list the domains allowed to show the chat so nobody else can embed it.

  3. 3

    Paste two lines and go Live

    Add the snippet before your closing body tag, flip the Live switch, and you are answering patients. No website? Share your hosted chat link instead.

Trust and privacy

Patient trust is designed in, not bolted on

You own the knowledge base. The assistant answers from content you upload and can edit, and you decide where it runs.

  • OTP before anything private

    Appointments, prescriptions and invoices are shown only after a phone OTP. The check runs on the server for every private request, not in the AI's prompt.

  • Consent when details are left

    A patient's contact details are captured only when they choose to leave them, with their consent recorded alongside.

  • Your domains and pages only

    Allow-list the websites, and even the individual pages, where your chat can appear. An empty list is flagged so you notice.

  • A record of every AI answer

    AI Audit keeps the question, the answer, its confidence and its cost, so you can always check what a patient was told.

What is Zilo Chat?

Zilo Chat is an AI chatbot built for clinics and hospitals in India. It sits on your website and answers patients' questions around the clock in six Indian languages, guides them to the right specialist, books appointments, and hands the conversation to your front desk when a person is needed — so fewer enquiries are missed after hours or while your team is busy.

Can Zilo Chat book appointments for my clinic or hospital?

Yes. Patients can book inside the chat — straight into Zilo Practice OS, or into your own hospital system once it is connected from Integrations in your Zilo dashboard. If no booking system is connected, the bot collects the patient's details (with their consent) so your team can call back and confirm.

Is Zilo Chat an AI receptionist? Will it replace my front desk?

Think of it as an AI front desk that never goes home, not a replacement for your team. It handles the repetitive questions — timings, doctors, services, directions, booking — and passes anything that needs a person to your staff through the live inbox, with the full conversation attached so the patient never has to repeat themselves.

How do I add the chatbot to my website? Does it work with WordPress?

You paste one short code snippet into your website — it works on WordPress, Wix, a custom HTML site or anything else that lets you add a script. Sites built on Zilo Pages can show it without any code. You also choose exactly which domains (and, optionally, which pages) are allowed to show your chat.

Can I use Zilo Chat without a website?

Yes. Every clinic gets a hosted chat page at a shareable link (zilo.care/chat/your-clinic). Put it on your Google Business profile, your WhatsApp Business profile, SMS reminders or a QR code at reception.

Does Zilo Chat work on WhatsApp?

Zilo Chat runs on your website and on its own hosted chat page — it is not a WhatsApp bot today. Many clinics add the hosted chat link to their WhatsApp Business profile and auto-replies, so patients who message on WhatsApp can tap through to book.

How does the AI know about my clinic?

You populate a knowledge base — upload an FAQ PDF, paste your services list, or enter Q&A pairs directly. The AI is grounded on your KB only and won't fabricate facts outside it. Low-confidence questions get escalated to your team automatically.

What stops the AI bill from running away?

Every org has a hard daily budget cap (default ₹500/day, configurable). The system reserves budget atomically before each AI call — once the limit is reached, the bot politely defers to your team instead of charging another rupee. You can monitor live spend on the dashboard.

Can patients access their private data through the bot?

Yes — but only after phone OTP verification. When a patient asks about their own appointments, prescriptions, or invoices, the bot triggers an inline OTP flow. Only after the OTP succeeds does the bot return the patient's actual records.

Which languages are supported?

English, Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, and Marathi out of the box. Knowledge base entries are language-scoped — you can write different answers per language. AI responses match the patient's selected language automatically.

Can I customise the scripted flows?

Yes. Three flows ship by default (Find Specialist, Book Appointment, Learn Services), and you can create custom flows through the dashboard with a no-code node editor — message, quick reply, branch, lead capture, handoff to AI, handoff to human, and more.

Does the chatbot give medical advice or diagnose patients?

No. Zilo Chat is designed to never diagnose or recommend treatment. It answers practical questions from your own knowledge base, adds your disclaimer, avoids topics you mark as off-limits, and steers anything clinical to your doctors. Every AI answer is logged in the AI Audit so you can see exactly what a patient was told.

What happens when a patient wants to talk to a real person?

When a staff member is online as a live agent, the patient can ask for a person and the chat is passed to the next available agent in your live inbox. When nobody is online, the patient is asked to leave their details instead, so no one is left waiting for a reply that never comes.

Is Zilo Chat suitable for dental, eye, skin and other speciality clinics?

Yes. The bot only knows what you teach it, so a dental clinic, an eye hospital or a multi-speciality hospital each get answers about their own services, doctors and timings. The Find Specialist flow can be edited to match your departments.

Can I match the chat widget to my clinic's brand?

Yes. Set your colours, logo, bot name and avatar, welcome message and theme from the dashboard, and preview the result before it goes live.

Does it work for hospitals with multiple branches?

Yes — one Zilo Chat assistant serves your whole organisation, and you can place it on every branch's website or pages. Add each branch's timings, address and doctors to the knowledge base so patients get the right answer for the branch they ask about.

How much does an AI chatbot for a clinic cost?

Zilo Chat plans are listed in the pricing section on this page, and every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with no card required. AI usage is protected by the daily spending cap you set, so there are no surprise bills.
