Company Updates
Barti was invited to be part of Vision Expo's first-ever Call for NEW, a curated showcase celebrating the most innovative companies and products in eye care. We took the Innovation Stage for an Innovation Flash Session to show what AI in independent eye care actually looks like in practice, in the hands of real doctors, every single day.
We introduced two brand-new AI products, adding to our suite of 10 AI tools, each built to solve real problems for independent eye care practices.
30% of all calls to a typical practice go unanswered. A third of the time, when a patient wants to book an appointment, no one picks up.
That's why we built our AI Receptionist, an intelligent phone agent that answers calls 24/7, schedules appointments, and delivers a natural, seamless patient experience. We played a live example on stage of the AI booking an appointment in real time, and the room took notice. The conversation was fluid, natural, and efficient.
Practices using AI Receptionist are booking 10 to 20% more appointments per month, translating to thousands of dollars in recovered revenue that was simply walking out the door before. Staff love it too. No more scrambling to catch a ringing phone mid-exam, no more constant interruptions throughout the day.
If you're not using AI documentation today, you're likely spending half your day charting. A 30-minute appointment with 15 minutes of paperwork isn't sustainable, and it's one of the biggest drivers of burnout in eye care.
Quinn is our AI Agent, and it starts with transforming how doctors document. Rather than transcribing speech into a wall of text, Quinn understands clinical language used in eye care and populates the structured chart, from fields and dropdowns to CPT and diagnosis codes, all from the doctor's voice.
We demonstrated this live on stage, speaking through a full exam before saying "code for me," and Quinn handled everything. No clicking. No typing. Just care.
Practices using Quinn and AI Scribe are saving one to two hours per day. Our best customers are seeing one to two additional patients every day because of the time they're getting back. Dr. Mackay at Hidden Valley Eye care said it best: he goes home an hour earlier every day.
Eye care has the worst software in medicine. That's not a hot take, it's something we hear from practice owners constantly. Nothing meaningful has changed in over 20 years. Doctors are stuck juggling three to five disconnected systems, clicking through hundreds of screens to document a single routine exam, and spending more time on admin than on patients.
Barti is built to change that. We're not just another EHR. We're the first AI operating system for independent eye care, one platform, one login, covering everything from the EHR and practice management to phones, texting, marketing, and RCM. No Frankenstein stack. No vendor juggling. Just one system that runs your entire practice.
We launched our first AI product at Vision Expo West in 2024 and have had real doctors using our AI Scribe for over a year and a half, with real results and real data to back it up.
Being selected for Vision Expo's inaugural Call for NEW is an honor, and it reflects what we've believed since day one: independent eye care deserves better tools, and the technology to deliver them is finally here.
If you want to see Barti in action, we'd love to show you. Book a demo today.
The future of eye care is here, and it runs on Barti.
