Every missed call is money
walking out the door.
New clients who can't get through give up
For someone reaching out for psychological support, a missed call can be the difference between starting treatment and giving up entirely. Every unanswered call is a person who needed help and didn't get it.
Mental Health Care Plan questions eating up session time
Callers frequently want to know how Medicare Mental Health Care Plans work before they book. Fielding these questions between sessions is disruptive and time-consuming for practitioners.
After-hours enquiries from clients in distress
People in emotional difficulty don't always call during business hours. Without coverage after hours, those calls go unanswered at the moments that matter most.
What happens on every call
Turnless handles the full conversation — start to finish.

Every call is answered in under a second — during jobs, after hours, even on public holidays.
Book
Collects the caller's details, checks your calendar, and confirms the appointment with an SMS.

AI Clinical Scribe — built in
Other practices pay $99–199 per clinician per month for a separate AI scribe. With Turnless, it's included — because your calls, bookings, and notes all live in one connected system.
Knows your patient before you do
Your AI receptionist already captured why they called. That context feeds into the note — so the AI starts with full context, not a blank slate.
Learns your writing style
Uses your recent approved notes as examples. Over time, generated notes mirror your phrasing and terminology — not generic AI output.
Notes become next steps
Generate referral letters, patient summaries, and follow-up tasks from your approved note. For GPs: automatic MBS item suggestions.
