"Integration & transformations are low‑hanging fruit for AI‑assisted work. It gives us the best bang for our buck. That's why we built an AI-native workflow for it."
Sudarshan Raghunathan · Chief Technology Officer · Dental Intelligence

Dental Intelligence is a practice performance platform for dentists and dental groups, offering analytics, patient engagement tools, and insurance management. Trusted by over 9,000 practices nationwide, it helps dental offices save time and increase revenue. For this project, the team was integrating a new practice management system (PMS) into their platform and wanted to standardize data transforms across different dental software systems.

Challenge

Teams historically hand-mapped PMS models to Dental Intelligence's model. This was effective but manual and time-consuming. Developers first needed to assess the PMS data schema. Then, they would compare it to their model to determine what transformations were required. Finally, they were able to begin development work to integrate the systems.

With a common model now established, Dental Intelligence wanted to find a way to accelerate integration work to support more systems, delivering more value to current customers and expanding their addressable market. The team needed a repeatable, AI-native transform workflow that maintained quality and scaled across future PMS integrations.

Solution

Dental Intelligence partnered with DevClarity for an AI coding jumpstart, offering foundational AI coding training sessions across the full engineering team and targeted application to high-impact company projects - such as the PMS integration workflow.

In this directed effort project, DevClarity helped install an AI‑native integration workflow centered on mappings and transformations with human guardrails.

  • AI-native transformation workflow – Automated mapping proposals and code scaffolding that follow established patterns and conventions
  • Human approval checkpoints – Review and approve mappings before code generation to reduce rework on complex transformations
  • Automated test generation – Default test creation that mirrors existing examples, ready to run and adjust locally
  • Single source of truth – Centralized prompts, clear workflows, and built-in safeguards for reliable AI assistance
"This is great. It would have taken us much longer to do this by hand."

Results

The foundational AI trainings drove increased adoption and output across the entire Dental Intelligence team:

  • Velocity: AI sped up repetitive tasks like mappings by ~44%—a clear sign of compounding productivity.
  • Output: Weekly output lifted by ~31%, enabling teams to ship more in less time.
  • Confidence: Confidence in AI output increased by ~34%, reflecting trust in the workflow and its outputs.

This was reinforced through the PMS integration directed effort:

  • Teams now have a reusable, documented AI‑assist pattern they can run for every PMS they integrate.
  • Approval checkpoints reduce bad mappings before they spread.
  • Mapper and transformer tests are generated by default, improving confidence.
  • Endpoint creation is easier than ever.

What Dental Intelligence received: A systematic AI-coding process for engineering: context files, prompts, MCP patterns, and test workflows that now live in their repos—plus teams trained to use them. Then, with DevClarity's help, Dental Intelligence built a workflow that shipped mappers, transformers, and tests for their current PMS integration. Best of all, they have built a broader integration playbook they can reuse for future work.
