Is this right for your business?
- You miss more than five calls a week
- Callers ask the same questions and want a time slot
- One new customer is worth $150 or more
- You get calls after hours or while on a job
- Most calls are complaints or complex account issues
- You answer every call already
- Your callers need professional advice on the first call
A clinic misses 8 calls a week. If one in four would have booked a first visit worth $120, that is about $1,000 a month in bookings at stake, against a plan at US$99 (CA$129). Illustrative figures: use the calculator with your own.

What is an AI receptionist?
A virtual assistant that answers your business phone 24/7 in a natural voice. It answers common questions, books appointments into your calendar, texts back missed callers and sends you a summary of every conversation.
Is an AI receptionist the same as an AI answering service?
They overlap. An answering service traditionally takes messages; an AI receptionist also books appointments, answers questions from your approved information and follows up by text. Ours does both.
How much does an AI receptionist cost?
US$299 (CA$399) one-time setup, then US$99 (CA$129) a month, including 100 call minutes. Extra minutes are billed at cost.
Will callers know they're talking to AI?
We recommend the assistant introduces itself as a virtual assistant. Callers can ask for a person at any time.
Can it transfer calls to a real person?
Yes. You choose which situations get transferred, and to which number.
Can I keep my current phone number?
Yes. Forward all calls, only after-hours calls, or only busy and unanswered calls.
Which software do you use?
We choose and set up the platform that fits your phone system, calendar and CRM, then run it for you. You own your data and your number.
What won't the AI do?
Give medical, legal or financial advice. It sticks to what you approve: hours, directions, services, price ranges, booking and FAQs.
Do you do AI cold calling?
No. Inbound calls only on this service. Outbound AI calls need prior consent in both countries: in the US the FCC confirmed AI voices count as 'artificial' under the TCPA (Cooley on the FCC's February 2024 ruling), and in Canada CASL and CRTC rules apply (CRTC).
