The AI Receptionist remembers the conversation and carries context through to humans or other agents, so no one repeats themselves.

Create your own
From kick-off to live,
step-by-step
Step 1 — Create your AI Receptionist
Start with a template, describe your workflow in plain language and let it learn from your call transcripts, or build your agent completely from scratch.
Step 2 — Set your rules
Write the greeting and company context, set the questions it should ask, and define when (or if) the agent should transfer. No code, just plain language.
Step 3 — Add your knowledge
Build your agent's knowledge base from scratch, or pull knowledge from sources like HubSpot, Zendesk, and more; no manual migration or maintenance.
Step 4 — Test and go live
Test your agent against clear requests, vague ones, and pushback. Add it to your call flow, publish, and monitor Agent Performance to see where it can improve.

Frequently asked questions
An AI receptionist is a software that answers your business phone calls, understands what callers need in natural conversation and handles the request: answering questions, booking appointments, or routing the call to the right person. It works 24/7, answers instantly, and can log every call to your CRM.
An IVR of phone tree makes callers listen to a menu and press keys, like "press 1 for billing," before they reach anyone. An AI receptionist lets callers say what they need in their own words, then resolves the request or connects them to the right teammate the first time. That means shorter calls, fewer transfers, and no menus.
A virtual receptionist is usually a person working remotely for an answering service, who picks up your calls and takes messages, typically billed per call or per minute. An AI receptionist is software that answers instantly, 24/7, handles many calls at once, and completes tasks like booking appointments or updating your CRM during the call.
