Direct Answer (TL;DR)
Brilo AI can integrate with Mend telehealth using the Mend API or Mend-provided webhook endpoints when your Mend account exposes API credentials or webhook secrets. Brilo AI connects to those endpoints to exchange scheduling and call context so the Brilo AI voice agent can confirm appointments, trigger telehealth links, or update patient records. Integration typically uses API calls or webhooks and can be configured to pass patient identifiers, appointment times, and call disposition back to Mend. Integration requires coordination with your Mend admin and the Brilo AI deployment team.
How soon can Brilo connect to Mend? — Brilo AI can begin integration after Mend API access and configuration details are provided; timelines depend on your Mend admin and routing requirements.
Does Brilo support Mend webhooks? — Yes. Brilo AI can be configured to listen for or emit webhook events when Mend exposes webhook endpoints and expected payloads.
Can Brilo update Mend appointment status? — When authorized, Brilo AI can send API requests to update appointment confirmations or dispositions back to Mend.
Why This Question Comes Up (problem context)
Buyers ask about Mend API integration because telehealth workflows require accurate alignment between appointment scheduling, patient notifications, and the call experience. Healthcare operations need the Brilo AI voice agent to confirm or cancel telehealth visits, surface secure meeting links to patients, and write call outcomes back to Mend to prevent double-booking or unnecessary rework. Risk- and compliance-conscious teams also ask to verify what data will flow between Brilo AI and Mend and how handoffs are managed.
How It Works (High-Level)
When enabled, Brilo AI connects to the Mend API or Mend-provided webhook endpoints to exchange scheduling and call status information. Typical workflow behavior:
Brilo AI receives an incoming call or outbound reminder task and queries the Mend API for the appointment context (patient name, appointment time, telehealth link) when configured to do so.
The Brilo AI voice agent confirms appointment details with the caller, can deliver a telehealth link verbally or via SMS, and then records the call outcome.
Brilo AI sends an API update or webhook event back to Mend with the disposition (confirmed, rescheduled, no-show) so Mend’s scheduling state stays current.
In Brilo AI, an integration endpoint is the API or webhook URL and credentials used to send or receive scheduling events.
In Brilo AI, a call disposition is the structured outcome (confirmed, canceled, rescheduled, no-show) that Brilo AI returns to your scheduling system.

Guardrails & Boundaries
Brilo AI integrations with the Mend API are governed by configuration limits and safety controls. Brilo AI should not attempt to access Mend data without explicit credentials and pre-approved scopes from your Mend administrator. Typical guardrails include:
Restricting which API scopes Brilo AI can use (read-only schedules vs. write dispositions).
Rate-limiting outbound API calls to Mend to avoid unintended scheduling updates.
Requiring explicit confirmation flows before disclosing or speaking sensitive meeting links.
In Brilo AI, an authorization scope is the set of API permissions your Mend admin grants to Brilo AI to read or write scheduling data.

Applied Examples
Healthcare example:
A telehealth clinic configures Brilo AI to query the Mend API when a reminder call starts. The Brilo AI voice agent confirms the appointment, reads the telehealth link only after patient identity validation, and marks the appointment as “confirmed” in Mend when the patient accepts.
Banking / Financial services example:
A bank’s insurance partner uses a similar API workflow: Brilo AI checks scheduled verification calls stored in the bank’s system, verifies caller identity, and updates the policy contact status back to the scheduling system (the same integration pattern used for Mend-like APIs).
(Examples use conditional phrasing because exact Mend API behaviors depend on Mend account settings and available endpoints.)
Human Handoff & Escalation
Brilo AI voice agent workflows can hand off to a human agent or an alternate workflow when configured. Common handoff behaviors:
Escalate to a live agent when the caller requests a clinician or when the agent cannot verify identity after predefined attempts.
Create a task or ticket in your CRM or internal queue and include the Mend appointment ID and call transcript for context.
Trigger a secure callback or warm transfer that includes Mend appointment metadata so the receiving agent has the full context.
Brilo AI supports configurable escalation rules so handoffs occur only under conditions you define (e.g., ambiguous scheduling conflicts, sensitive clinical questions, or identity verification failures).
Setup Requirements
Collect Mend API credentials and scopes from your Mend administrator (API key, OAuth client, or webhook secret).
Provide Brilo AI with the Mend endpoint URLs and accepted payload schema or sample webhook payloads.
Define which appointment fields to read and write (appointment ID, datetime, telehealth link, disposition).
Configure Brilo AI authentication and test connectivity from a staging environment.
Validate identity verification flow and when Brilo AI is allowed to speak or send telehealth links.
Enable production routing and monitor initial calls for accuracy and correct dispositions.

Business Outcomes
When properly configured, a Mend API integration with the Brilo AI voice agent can reduce missed telehealth sessions, improve appointment confirmation rates, and lower administrative load on clinical staff. Brilo AI helps standardize reminders and dispositions so scheduling systems reflect real-time patient decisions, which reduces rebooking work and improves clinic throughput. Outcomes depend on integration scope, identity verification controls, and monitoring practices.
FAQs
Does Brilo AI require Mend to expose webhooks or can it poll the Mend API?
Brilo AI can work with either webhooks or polling patterns depending on what Mend exposes and your preference. Webhooks let Brilo AI receive event-driven updates; polling is possible when webhooks aren’t available but may increase integration complexity.
Will Brilo AI read telehealth links aloud to callers?
Brilo AI can read or send telehealth links only when your configuration and consent flows permit it. We recommend validating caller identity before disclosing links and optionally sending links via secure SMS rather than speaking them.
Can Brilo AI write appointment dispositions back to Mend automatically?
Yes—when granted write permissions and configured for that behavior, Brilo AI can update appointment statuses in Mend. Many customers restrict write permissions to specific disposition values to limit risk.
What data does Brilo AI store after a Mend-integrated call?
Storage policies depend on your Brilo AI deployment and contract. Brilo AI stores call metadata required for routing and reporting; any storage of PHI or recordings should be agreed and configured according to your compliance needs.
