Answer every inbound call

No voicemail, no missed lead. Every ring gets answered in under 1 second, 24/7.

Qualify callers in real time

Ask the right questions and score intent before a human ever picks up.

Route urgent requests correctly

Emergencies and high-value leads get escalated instantly. Everything else gets handled.

Booking links, confirmations, and follow-ups sent by text while the caller is still live.

How calls move from ring to resolution

Three steps, fully automated. Your AI voice agent for small business handles it all.

Pick up instantly

Your virtual receptionist for small business answers in under one ring. Callers hear a professional, natural-sounding voice. No recordings, no hold music. Most callers can't tell the difference.

AI answers call instantly

Follow your call flow

The AI call answering service asks your intake questions, captures service type, urgency, budget, and location, the same way you'd want a receptionist to.

Custom call flow configuration

Capture lead details automatically

Name, number, service type, urgency: all captured and stored. Every call produces a clean transcript and a lead record ready for follow-up.

Lead capture and transcript

More than a generic AI tool

Every feature below was built for the specific moment between ring and booked appointment.

Forward calls during office hours

You can keep your front office staff for normal office hours, and also have the voice AI agent answer after a few rings if they're not available.

Customize your voice agent

The AI call answering service is easily trained like you would a real receptionist. You can customize the tone and style to match your brand, and choose from 10 different voices.

Booking links sent mid-call by text

The agent can intelligently send whatever booking link you want, at the right time. No email tag, no callback required. The link goes out while the caller is still on the line and the customer books on their own schedule.

Spam and low-quality calls filtered out

The AI identifies and handles spam, wrong numbers, and low-intent callers so your people focus on real opportunities. Our customers save 5 hours a week on average from just this feature alone.

Built for real phone workflows

The features your operations team actually needs. Built for real use, not just demos.

Local number

Your area code, your brand. Callers see a familiar prefix.

Call routing

Route urgent calls to live staff. Handle everything else automatically.

Transcripts
