The consult starts the moment you hit send. It takes a real history, asks the follow-up questions a doctor would ask, then gives you an assessment, a plan, and a care note.
The flow: you describe what is wrong in your own words, it asks the one question that best narrows the possibilities, and within minutes you have what it most likely is, what to do tonight, what to watch for, and whether a human visit is worth it. If your answers point at an emergency (chest pain, stroke signs, severe allergic reactions, heavy bleeding), it tells you directly and keeps telling you: 911, or 988 for a crisis.

What happens after I text an AI doctor?
With Pymander, four things, in order. First, the consult opens immediately: no app, no account, no waiting room, you just describe what is going on in your own words. Second, it takes a real history the way a physician does, asking one discriminating question at a time (when it started, what makes it better or worse, what you have taken), because the answer to each question decides which question comes next. Third, you get the close: what this most likely is, how worried to be, what to do tonight, what to watch for, and a straight answer on whether a human doctor is worth the trip, urgently or not. Fourth, a care note arrives as a signed link you can keep, or share with a doctor later so the visit does not start from zero. Two things happen behind the curtain: every consult passes a deterministic safety pipeline that escalates red flags regardless of what the conversation looks like, and your history is remembered, so the next consult starts where this one ended. If your answers describe an emergency, the reply is not a plan, it is a directive: 911, or 988 in the US for a crisis.
