What the owner gets

  • The appointment on their calendar.
  • An email with the caller's name, number and request when the call ends.
  • The call in the next morning's report.

Example conversation, written to show how a call goes. The business and caller are made up. Your receptionist uses your name, services and hours.

How it works

Live in about a week. We do the setup.

  1. 01

    We build it with you

    We meet with you (in person in Kansas City) and learn your services, prices and hours. You pick your receptionist’s name and greeting.

  2. 02

    You forward your calls

    Keep your number. Choose when your AI receptionist answers: all day, after hours, or when your line is busy.

  3. 03

    It answers. You get the details.

    It answers questions and books appointments. You get every request by email and a report of every call each morning.

What it does

What it does on every call.

  • Answers questions

    Hours, prices, services and policies. It only uses information you approve.

  • Books appointments

    It finds an open time and books it on your calendar. It can reschedule and cancel too.

  • Gets urgent calls to your team

    It alerts your on-call person right away and can transfer the call live.

  • Connects callers to a person

    During your hours, callers can ask for someone. Your team hears who's calling before they pick up.

  • Takes messages and requests

    When a time can't be booked, it saves the request for your team to call back. Nothing gets lost.

  • Reports every call

    A report every morning shows every call, request and booking in plain English.

Why callers trust it

Built to get the details right.

Your callers get a clear, honest answer every time.

  • It never says “booked” unless the booking went through.
  • It reads back names, addresses and numbers. A caller can fix one detail without starting over.
  • It doesn't guess. If it doesn't know, it takes the details for your team.
  • Urgent calls come first. It makes sure the caller is safe, then alerts your on-call person.
  • It tells callers it's an AI. No pretending.
  • If something on our side fails, it tells the caller your team will call back.

More than a receptionist

Got another job AI could take off your plate?

The AI receptionist is where most businesses start. We also build custom AI solutions for the problems you bring us, like follow-ups, connecting the tools you already use, or replacing software you pay too much for.

Tell us what slows you down. We’ll tell you honestly if AI can handle it, what it would cost and how long it would take.

FAQ

Questions owners ask us.

Who is it for?

Any business that gets more calls than it can answer: salons, auto shops, home services, clinics, hotels and more.

Can I name my AI receptionist?

Yes. You choose its name and greeting. It always tells callers it’s an AI.

How is this different from a $49 AI app?

Those apps are do-it-yourself. We build yours with you, test every type of call before it goes live and keep an eye on it after.

Will callers know they're talking to an AI?

Yes. It says so at the start of every call. During your hours, callers can ask for a person.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. You forward calls to us, and your number never changes. To stop, you turn off forwarding.

What if it can't answer a question?

It doesn't guess. It takes the caller's details and sends the request to your team.

Can it book into my calendar?

Yes, with connected calendars. If your booking system isn't connected yet, it saves the request and your team confirms. Ask us about your system.

How long does setup take?

Most businesses are live about a week after we sign.

Do you only work in Kansas City?

No. We're based in Kansas City and meet local businesses in person. Everywhere else in the U.S., we set up by video call.

Is there a long contract?

No. Choose month to month and cancel with 30 days' notice. Or choose 12 months and pay no setup fee.

Do unused minutes carry over?

No. Each month starts fresh. If you often use less, a smaller plan may save you money. We'll tell you.

Does it speak Spanish?

Spanish conversations are coming soon. Today, Spanish-speaking callers are flagged so your team can call them back.

Do you build anything besides receptionists?

Yes. Tell us the problem. If AI can solve it well, we’ll quote a custom solution. If it can’t, we’ll say so.

Is it an emergency service?

No. For emergencies, it tells callers to call 911 and alerts your team. It does not replace 911.
