Dentina.ai or TrueLark: which should you choose?
These are bought in very different ways. TrueLark is now part of Weave, sold as Weave AI Receptionist to practices already on Weave's phones and messaging, at an unpublished price.
Dentina.ai is a standalone, dentist-founded AI receptionist with flat pricing: $299 a month per location with unlimited calls, or $399 with web chat, two-way texting and warm transfers. It is billed annually, has a 30-day free trial and no setup fee, and names 11 integrations including orthodontic systems.
A Weave practice should price the Weave add-on first. Any other practice should trial Dentina.ai against its own call log; the standard plan covers up to three providers per location.
