Signature feature

One missed call. A simpler way to care.

Airtime is precious. Patients can call your Maatla Care number and hang up. Our automated assistant calls them back, helps them choose a time, books it, and confirms it on WhatsApp.

  • It always says it is automated

    Callers know they are speaking to software, and can ask for a person at any time.

  • It only calls when it should

    Opt-outs, calling hours, duplicate checks and daily limits are enforced on every callback.

  • Your calendar is the source of truth

    Only real, open times are offered, and bookings appear instantly.

AI medical scribe

Focus on the patient. We’ll help with the notes.

With the patient’s consent, Maatla Care transcribes the consultation and drafts a structured SOAP note. Every line is linked to what was actually said. You correct anything, and nothing reaches the record until you approve it.

How it works

Simple for patients. Powerful for practices.

The full walkthrough

    Find the right doctor

    Search by area, specialty, language, medical aid and real availability. Or just send us a WhatsApp.

  2. 02

    Book in a few taps

    Choose a time that suits you. Confirmation arrives on WhatsApp, SMS or email.

  3. 03

    Arrive prepared

    Answer a few questions before your visit so your doctor is ready for you. Check in from your phone.

    Keep what matters

Trust

Technology built around trust.

Health information is personal. These principles shape every feature we build.

Patient privacy

Built around POPIA principles: purpose limits, data minimisation, encryption in transit and at rest, and no health data sent to advertisers.

Secure record access

Practices only see patients who have a relationship with them. Every view of a record is logged, and patients can see who looked.

Professional verification

Doctors are only bookable after their professional registration has been checked by our team.

Clinician oversight

AI drafts. Clinicians decide. Nothing clinical is finalised without a qualified person's approval.

Transparent AI assistance

Our assistant always says it is automated, never diagnoses or prescribes, and points to emergency services when it hears warning signs.

Consent controls

Patients choose what they share, with whom, and how they hear from us. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.

We do not claim certifications we do not hold. Read how we handle data in our Privacy Policy and AI Safety pages.
