Company profile
researched Aug 2026Simplifeye develops software that automates administrative and revenue-related workflows for dental and other healthcare practices. Its product set covers end-to-end payment tools — in-office transaction processing, invoicing, and customizable payment plans delivered in a HIPAA-compliant manner — alongside integrated online scheduling that lets patients view real-time availability and book appointments outside office hours, and a live webchat product (marketed as Amplify 24/7 chat) staffed by trained agents who answer practice-specific questions, qualify prospective patients, and collect the information needed to book an appointment. A campaigns module segments patient populations by factors such as needed procedures, insurance coverage, and last treatment date, and sends customized text or email outreach to fill open schedule slots using data including existing treatment plans and hygiene recall.
The company positions its tools as a way for clinicians and staff to spend less time on communication, patient triage, follow-up calls, and record retrieval. At the time of its 2023 acquisition, Simplifeye reported serving 8,000 practices and facilitating more than 400,000 patient appointments. Following the acquisition, Simplifeye's technology is offered as part of Vyne Dental's Vyne Trellis revenue acceleration platform, which combines electronic claims and attachments, eligibility checks, electronic patient forms, payments, patient reminders, secure messaging, online scheduling, live webchat, and campaigns.
