Yes. There are several pre-appointment questionnaire / intake tools that can help verify client details, collect forms before the visit, send reminders, and reduce no-shows.

Common features to look for

  • Mobile-friendly forms for clients to complete before arrival
  • Identity / contact validation for name, email, phone, DOB, insurance, etc.
  • Automated reminders via SMS/email
  • Two-way confirmation so clients can confirm, reschedule, or cancel
  • Waivers / consent forms and e-signature
  • Integration with scheduling/CRM/EHR systems
  • Conditional logic to ask only relevant questions
  • Incomplete form follow-up reminders

Popular tools in this category

  • Jotform – strong form builder, conditional logic, payment/waiver options, and integrations
  • Typeform – good user experience and logic, often used for pre-screening/intake
  • Formstack – more enterprise-oriented, good for secure workflows and data capture
  • Cognito Forms – flexible forms with approvals and calculations
  • Acuity Scheduling / Squarespace Scheduling – includes intake forms and reminders
  • Calendly – scheduling plus reminders and custom questions
  • OhMD – healthcare-focused patient communication and intake
  • IntakeQ – designed for healthcare/therapy practices with intake and reminders
  • Nexus / Phreesia / Solutionreach – more clinic/medical-office focused, with patient intake and no-show reduction features

If your main goal is reducing no-shows

Prioritize tools that offer:

  1. Automated SMS reminders
  2. Confirmation links
  3. Easy rescheduling
  4. Required pre-visit forms
  5. Integration with your booking system
  6. Data validation rules to catch bad phone/email entries

If you want, I can also give you:

  • a shortlist by industry (medical, dental, salon, consulting, etc.)
  • a comparison table of 5–10 tools
  • recommendations based on budget, HIPAA needs, or integration with your existing scheduler
