About Us
We're developing a booking system that users appreciate. A fast booking system for small dental practices in the Czech Republic. Text search, intelligent time slots, PIN authentication.
Why We Founded Zuboklik
The Problem We Saw
In 2023, we talked to dozens of small dental practices across the Czech Republic. Everyone had the same problem: existing systems were either too complex and expensive (designed for large clinics) or too simple (just a calendar without intelligence). Small practices needed something in between - simple but smart.
What We Thought Of
What if the system understood how a small dental practice works? What if a patient didn't have to remember a password, just a PIN? What if the system automatically calculated the required time based on symptoms? What if an AI line could book patients 24/7?
How We Built It
We started with a simple MVP - calendar and booking. Then we added PIN authentication. Then intelligent time calculation. Then family accounts. Then the AI line. We tested each feature with real practices. We asked: 'Are you using it?' If not, we threw it out or simplified it.
Where We Are Now
Today Zuboklik runs stably in production with 3500+ patients. The system works nonstop without outages. I constantly add new features based on feedback. I develop alone with the help of AI agents, which allows me fast iterations and direct contact with users.
What's Important to Us
Simplicity
The system must be so simple that everyone understands it in 5 minutes. No 50-page manuals, no training. It just works.
Transparency
One price, all features, no hidden fees. What you see is what you get. No asterisks, no 'Enterprise only' features.
Listening to Customers
Every week we talk to dentists and nurses. We ask what works and what doesn't. We create features based on real needs, not our assumptions.
Czech Roots
We're from the Czech Republic, for the Czech Republic. We understand Czech healthcare, insurance companies, legislation. Support is in Czech, always.
Focus on Small Practices
We don't make a system for large clinics. We make it for small practices with 1-3 people. That's where we can be the best.
Reliability and Stability
The system runs nonstop without outages. 99.9% uptime. Automatic backups. Your patients can book anytime.

What We're Planning
Our plan for the next 6-12 months
AI phone line in Czech
Patients will be able to book an appointment by calling a phone number.
Waiting list

Public API for integration with third-party health software.
Mobile application
Native mobile app for iOS and Android for patients.
Booking via AI chatbot on website
Chatbot on the practice website that helps patients with booking.

Our Mission
We'll make patient booking something that takes 10 minutes a day instead of 3 hours. We want nurses to be able to spend time with patients, not with the phone and calendar.
Our Vision
By 2027, we want to be the highest quality booking system for small dental practices in the Czech Republic. We plan to expand to Slovakia and other Central European countries.
How We Work
Small is beautiful
We don't want to be a big company. We want to stay small, agile, close to customers. Rather 100 satisfied practices than 1000 dissatisfied ones.
Iteration, not perfectionism
We'd rather release a feature that works 90%, get feedback and improve it, than wait six months for a 'perfect' solution that doesn't work anyway.
Customer is a collaborator
We don't see practices as customers, but as collaborators. Together we create a better product.
Open about problems
When we have an outage, we say it. When something doesn't work, we admit it. Transparency builds trust.
