Answers your calls

Sounds like it works there, because it knows your business.

It answers from the facts you give it: services, hours, area and policies. It never quotes a price unless you allow it and never promises a timeline. Anything it isn’t sure of becomes a message or a transfer.

  • Answers on the second ring, 24/7
  • Your business name, your services, your rules
  • A written transcript of every call

A person when it counts

“Can I talk to someone?” Always yes.

Any caller who asks for a person gets transferred to you. If you can’t pick up, it takes a message. If anything ever fails, calls fall back to ringing your phone, so no caller ever hits silence.

  • Transfer offered on every call
  • Messages taken when you’re busy
  • Falls back to ringing you, never dead air

Usage, overage and the fine print

We let you know at 80%. The first time you go over, it is on us; after that, minutes over your plan are billed at twice your plan’s per-minute rate (Standard $1.06, Busy $1.00, High volume $0.72) on your next invoice. A top-up bought ahead is cheaper. Cancel any time. By purchasing you agree to the Terms of Service.

Run the math before we take a dollar.

Your numbers, not ours. Counting half, because some of them would have called back anyway.
