SMILEO vs Smile Virtual
Feature-by-feature comparison across 15 capabilities cosmetic dentists convert on: AI smile preview, HIPAA virtual consults, direct calendar booking, marketing attribution, and ambassador referrals.
SMILEO ships 8 capabilities Smile Virtual doesn't. Smile Virtual ships 0 capabilities SMILEO hasn't — some on the roadmap, some deliberately excluded. Rationale on every row.
The preview is table stakes — the OS is the moat
Most tools in this category stop at the AI mockup. The mockup isn't what books the $30k case — what happens in the 14 days between a patient seeing their preview and sitting in the chair is. SMILEO's free tier gives you the preview because the real value is in the OS: direct calendar booking, HIPAA virtual consults, marketing attribution, ambassador tracking. Smile Virtual covers a narrower slice of that workflow.
