How it works

What happens when someone calls my business?

Every call is answered, day or night, so no customer hits voicemail and rings the next name on the list.

  1. Your call is answered

    A human-like AI voice agent picks up every call, day or night, so nobody hits voicemail.

  2. The message is taken

    Who called, why, and how to get back to them.

  3. Transferred or messaged

    With your availability on, the call can be transferred to you. With it off, the AI takes the message.

  4. Emailed to you

    A summary, a full transcript and a recording of the call arrive by email.

  5. Kept in your CRM

    Every call is stored in your CRM account, so you have a record of who rang and what they needed.

You choose

How do you want your calls handled?

The AI voice agent answers every call, 24/7. Your availability setting decides what happens next.

Availability on: transferred to you

When you're free to take calls, switch your availability on. The AI answers, then the call can be transferred to you, so urgent calls still reach you.

Availability off: message emailed

When you're busy or away, switch it off. The AI takes the message and you get a summary, transcript and recording by email.

Who it's for

Who uses a call answering service?

Anyone who loses work because they can't pick up while they're working.

Trades

You can't answer the phone up a ladder or under a sink. The customer still gets through.

Sole traders

No receptionist, no missed work. Callers get an answer instead of voicemail, even at night.

Clinics and therapists

You're with a client. New enquiries are taken and sent to you for after the session.

Small offices

Cover lunch, busy mornings and days out, without hiring anyone.

Virtual office

Can I add call answering to a virtual office?
