AI phone answering that books the next job while you finish this one.

One call, start to finish

What an unanswered call costs

Voicemail is where the next number gets dialled

When you’re busy

You are with a customer, driving, or on another call. The phone rings out, and the caller does not leave a message. A text back reaches some of them. The one who wants a time today rings on.

Nothing records the job you never heard about. It does not show up as a loss, so it never gets fixed.

After hours

People look for help in the evening and at weekends, when the office is closed. A message that says “we’ll call you back” asks them to wait.

The business that answers tonight gets the booking. Yours can be that business without anyone staying late.

What happens on a call

It answers, finds out what they need, and books it

An AI receptionist is a voice that answers your calls and knows what you have told it. It talks with the caller, then files what they said.

Every call is logged with a recording and a transcript. You can read exactly what was said.

We set it up for you — the greeting, what it knows, when it hands over — and quote it before we start. Or your team sets it up itself.

An illustrative call. Timings vary with the caller.

What you decide

It says what you tell it to, when you tell it to

01

What it knows

Your hours, services, prices and policies, and the questions customers always ask. It answers from those. For anything else, it takes the caller’s details for you.

02

When it answers

All day, or only the hours you choose, such as evenings and weekends. It can answer in English or Spanish.

03

When it hands over

You set when a call comes to a person: an emergency, a complaint, a caller who asks for you. It puts them through instead of taking a message.

AI outbound calling

The same voice can make the calls you keep putting off

A new inquiry

Called as soon as the form comes in, not the next morning.

Tomorrow’s appointments

A reminder call the day before.

A booking to confirm

A call to check the time still works.

Customers gone quiet

A call to the people who have not booked in a while, asking if they need you again.

Outbound calling works on US numbers only. It is not available in South Africa yet.

AI receptionist cost

Next to a receptionist, an example

A part-time receptionist

About $1,583 a month

20 hours a week at the US median of $18.27 an hour (Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). Answers during those hours only.

Voice AI

About $111 a month

200 calls of three minutes at $0.182 a minute, plus a $1.73 phone number. Answers at whatever hours you choose.

An example, not a quote. It leaves out the Income Mavericks subscription, set-up, and an employee’s other costs. Work out your own month.

Fair questions

What people ask before they switch it on

What happens if it cannot answer a question?

It answers from what you have given it. For anything else, it takes the caller’s details for you, or puts them through to a person if you have set it to.

Will it get things wrong?

At first it might, like any new hire. Read its calls, then tell it how to answer, what not to answer, and what to do when a question is unclear. Add what it was missing to what it knows, and it uses that next time.

Can it book straight into my calendar?

Yes. It offers the times your calendar has open and confirms one on the call. Run several calendars, and it books the one you have set for that job.

Can it answer only after hours?

Yes. It answers every hour, or on a schedule you set — evenings and weekends only, for example.

Will I know what was said?

Every call is logged with a recording and a transcript. The caller’s details go on their contact record, and any follow-up you have set starts from there.

What does an AI answering service cost?

$0.182 a minute while it is on a call, so a three-minute call is about 55 cents. Calls are billed per use and itemised on your invoice. Set-up is quoted before we start, or free if your team does it.

Does it speak Spanish?

Yes. One agent can answer in English or Spanish, whichever the caller speaks.

Can I keep my phone number?

Yes. Forward your existing number to it, and callers dial the number they know. On some networks the number can be moved across instead. Or start with a new one, from $1.73 a month for a US local number.

Stop sending callers to voicemail.
