Your day, understood
Billing should not follow you home. We build around the work that interrupts your day and keeps you checking after hours.
Built for dentists. Built by dentists.
Get your time back.
We take care of the billing. So you can spend more time with patients, with family, and doing what you love.
KATO / TIME WELL SPENT01
Your patients.
Your people.
Your life.
Dental billing automation.Less checking. Less chasing. More living.
We know what your time is worth
Built for dentists.
Built by dentists.
You became a dentist to care for people. Kato brings a dentist’s perspective to the work that gets in the way. We’re building billing automation to give you more of your day back.
The work, taken care of
Our focus is the work behind getting paid: posting payments, matching deposits, and making unresolved balances clear.
Your time, your choice
More room for a patient conversation, an evening with family, or a round of golf. What you do with your time is up to you.
We take care of the billing
Off your desk.
Out of your evening.
Starting with payments, reconciliation, and a clear picture of what’s outstanding. We confirm the available scope for your practice.
Posting & reconciliation
Less time matching payments by hand. Our rollout focuses on connecting EOBs and ERAs with actual deposits and the payment records in your PMS.
- EOB and ERA retrieval
- Deposit verification
- Payment posting and adjustments
A/R visibility
A clearer view of received, outstanding, and unresolved balances, without piecing the story together across reports.
- Paid and unpaid balances
- Aging visibility
- Unresolved payment differences
Patient payments
Patient payments belong in the same picture as insurance payments. Our rollout includes payment workflows shaped around your practice’s policies.
- Practice-approved payment policies
- Patient payment setup
- Visibility into remaining balances
What comes next
Our direction is a revenue cycle that runs without your constant attention, from verification and claims through denials and collections.
- Verification and claim submission roadmap
- Denial resolution roadmap
- Collections and pre-authorization roadmap
How we work together
An easier start.
A better working day.
A clear scope, a familiar PMS, and your policies from the start.
01
Tell us what takes your time.
Start with your practice, your PMS, and the billing work that follows you home. We confirm where Kato can help today.
02
Set it up around your practice.
We agree on scope, authorized access, and your policies. You know what Kato will handle and what still needs your approval.
03
Make room for more.
The goal is fewer manual steps and less supervision, with visibility into payments and unresolved balances when you need it.
Less checking in
Stay in the know.
Then get on with your day.
Knowing what’s happening should not become another job. We’re designing Kato to make the status clear and bring decisions that need you into focus.
These illustrative conversations show the experience we’re working toward: a useful answer, enough context, and less chasing.

A question. An answer. Illustrative conversation. Channels and workflows subject to availability.
Can Kato help with older unpaid claims?
Tell us about the balances taking up your time. We review the available records and current workflow with you. Our initial A/R focus is visibility into unpaid and unresolved balances; broader denial resolution and payer follow-up are roadmap work, and recovery is never guaranteed.
What is Kato?
Kato is dental billing automation built around one goal: get your time back. We are building a product that takes care of billing work, starting with payment posting, reconciliation, patient payments, and A/R visibility. We confirm the available workflows for your practice before you commit.
What does “Built for dentists. Built by dentists.” mean?
Dentists help shape Kato around the realities of running a dental practice. That perspective guides what we build: less time doing billing, less time checking on it, and more room for patients and life outside the practice.
Is Kato a service or software?
Kato is an automation product for dental billing. The goal is to take care of the work itself, including posting payments into your PMS, so you spend less time doing and supervising billing. Your practice sets its policies and keeps control of decisions that need approval.
Will we need to change our practice management system?
Our goal is to work with the PMS you already use. We review your system and workflow together, then confirm the workflows Kato can support in your PMS and the access needed. Availability varies by system.
What billing work are you starting with?
Our initial rollout focuses on EOB and ERA receipt, actual deposit verification, payment posting and adjustments, reconciliation, patient payments, and a rolling A/R view. Availability is confirmed for your practice during our first conversation.
How much does Kato cost?
We review your practice’s volume, workflow, and available scope with you, then share pricing before you commit.
What happens after we get in touch?
We arrange a conversation about where billing takes up your time. Then we review your PMS, confirm fit and available workflows, and outline access requirements, onboarding, and pricing.
How do you handle access and patient information?
Before onboarding, we review the access your workflow requires, applicable agreements, and data-handling responsibilities with your practice. Please use the contact form for business inquiries only; patient information and records should go through an agreed secure channel.
What is dental revenue cycle management?
Dental revenue cycle management, or dental RCM, connects care delivered with payment recorded. It includes verification, claims, payment posting, reconciliation, outstanding balances, and collections. Kato’s initial rollout focuses on the payment side of that cycle; broader automation is our roadmap.
