How will you plan to handle volume when you scale? @dhruvakumar @antorobin I think there are going to be a lot more Slack based startups... especially with the introduction of the Slack Platform Launch.

@bentossell Hi Ben, Thank you for the question. We are already handling large volumes through our existing platform icliniq.com.

@dhruvakumar what is the average response time? How many people get answered per day? How do you plan on handling 1,000,000 queries :)

@dhruvakumar yeah I was going to ask... can patients rate the doctors, uber-style?

@rpatm Well. That's our ultimate aim. 😄
