AI Receptionist

A phone assistant that picks up every call, answers the questions people usually ring to ask, books appointments straight into your calendar, and passes anything it cannot handle to a person — with the caller’s details already written down.

Key features

What you get on day one.

  • Answers every call

    Evenings, weekends and while your team is with a customer. Callers get a straight answer instead of a voicemail beep.

  • Books into your calendar

    Checks real availability, takes the booking, sends the confirmation, and handles reschedules and cancellations.

  • Knows your business

    Opening hours, prices, services, location, parking, what to bring — answered from information you control and can update.

  • Hands over cleanly

    Complaints, unusual requests and high-value callers go to a person, with a summary of the call already attached.

How it works commercially

Set up against your own services, hours and calendar, usually live within a few weeks, then a monthly fee covering call volume and support. Indicative only — we quote once we know your call patterns.

Getting it live

How adopting AI Receptionist works.

Four steps from a first walkthrough to a live platform with your branding on it. Most of the elapsed time is decisions about how you work, not development.

  1. 1

    A walkthrough of the working platform

    Thirty minutes on the real product rather than a slide deck. You drive, we answer, and you leave knowing whether the way it works resembles the way you work — which is the only question that matters at this stage.

  2. 2

    A written scope within 48 hours

    What we would brand, what we would configure, what would need building because the platform does not do it yet, and what each part costs. In writing, so you can take it to whoever approves the spend.

  3. 3

    Branding, configuration and integration

    Your logo, colours, wording and domain go on, the platform is configured to your rules, and it is connected to the systems you already run. This is the bulk of the elapsed time, and most of it is decisions rather than code.

  4. 4

    Launch, training and support

    We go live with a tested way back, train the people who will use it daily, and hand over written documentation. From there a monthly arrangement covers hosting, updates and changes — or you take it on yourself.

Questions

What people ask about AI Receptionist.

How much does an AI receptionist cost?

Setup against your services, hours and calendar, then a monthly fee that follows call volume. It is normally a fraction of the cost of the answering service or part-time receptionist it replaces, but we quote once we have seen your call patterns rather than before.

How long does an AI receptionist take to set up?

Usually three to six weeks. Most of that is not technical — it is agreeing what the assistant should say about your prices, availability and policies, and testing it against real calls before it answers a live line for the first time.

Will callers know they are talking to an AI?

They should, and we recommend it says so. The assistant identifies itself at the start of the call. In practice callers mind far less than businesses expect, provided it answers immediately and can actually book them in rather than promising a callback.

What happens when it cannot answer something?

It hands over to a person rather than guessing. Complaints, unusual requests and high-value callers are routed straight through, with the caller details and a summary of the conversation already attached, so whoever picks up is not starting from nothing.
