Demo data
Seed your practice with realistic sample records to explore SmileLine safely, then remove them in one click.
By the end of this page your practice will be full of realistic sample patients, journeys, appointments and conversations — so you can click around every screen without touching real data — and you'll know how to clear it all out again.
Seed demo data
Go to Settings, then Demo data.
Click Seed demo data, then confirm in the dialog. Seeding takes a few seconds.
When it finishes, the page shows Demo data present with a count of everything that was created — and every page in the app now has sample volume to explore.
Only owners and admins can seed or remove demo data. Members see the status read-only.
What's included
The seeder builds a believable UK practice:
- 400 sample patients across every status — fresh enquiries, leads mid-journey, active patients, and inactive or archived records — with British names, fictional UK mobile numbers and values in pounds.
- Journeys in every stage of your board, with realistic treatment values.
- Appointments past and future, plus tasks and full patient timelines, so Today, Calendar and Reports all have something to show.
- Inbox conversations across SMS, WhatsApp and email — including threads from unknown senders so you can try linking a conversation to a patient.
- Four fake staff members the sample work is attributed to. They can't log in; they exist so assignee lists and leaderboards look real.
- Any missing vocabularies — tags, practitioners, rooms, appointment types — are created too.
Every record is marked as demo data, so it can all be removed together.
Remove demo data
Go to Settings, then Demo data.
Click Remove demo data, then confirm in the dialog.
The status returns to No demo data. Your real records are untouched.
Removal deletes every demo patient together with their journeys, appointments, tasks and timeline — plus any tags, practitioners, rooms and appointment types the seeder created. If you attached a real record to one of those (for example, an appointment booked with a demo practitioner), it loses that reference. Removal can't be undone.
