>> balance between live help vs after-visit
Don't forget pre-visit. Doctor visits go much better if the patient advocate (this thing) has questions in hand. The patient can spend hours talking to the tool and get a summary so they are better prepped for the 5-minute doctor conversation. A tool that summarizes observed symptoms for the doctor might be an idea.

  Yes, actually that was our first experiment! We stripped it for this launch so we could more intelligently handle the cost and latency.
  Every time I talk to a doctor they suggest we should do this. Honestly there's often enough time in the waiting room even if the patient doesn't do it at home lmao. Then just show the doctor a few bullets with quotes.
  Thoughts?
