Missed calls cost businesses customers. Whether you're on a job, in a meeting, or just away from your desk, every unanswered ring is a potential lead gone. AI Receptionist gives you a 24/7 answering service that works around the clock and can be customised to suit your brand. And it can be set up in under 60 seconds.
Here’s how.
Step 1 – Choose your plan
Start by picking the package that fits your business’ call volume. Lite, Plus, or Unlimited – each one scales with how many calls you're expecting to handle.
Step 2 – Scan your website
Drop in your website URL. The AI reads your site and instantly learns what your business does, so it can start answering questions straight away.
Step 3 – Set your greeting and summary email
Write a quick opening line for callers, then add the email address where you want your call summaries to be sent.
Step 4 – Give it a name and a voice
Choose a name and a voice that fits your brand. This is what your customers will hear every time they call.
Step 5 – Tell it how to behave
Give your AI Receptionist instructions – tone of voice, how to handle certain types of questions, and even how to pronounce your brand name or key industry terms.
Step 6 – Build its knowledge
Upload FAQs, policies, or product information so it can go beyond your website and answer the questions your customers actually ask. Tell it what details to capture from every caller too, whether that's a name, an order number, or a department.
Step 7 – Hit activate
Once you're happy, hit Activate. You can add your business phone number at this point so all calls come through.
And that's it – your AI Receptionist is live. No technical knowledge needed, no lengthy setup, and no more missed calls.
