In short

An AI phone answering service answers your business phone line with conversational AI, handling the call end to end and reporting the outcome to you.

Setting It Up On Your Existing Line

  • Forward your business number to Nicole, or port it across entirely.
  • Or forward only on no-answer, so she catches what you miss and nothing else.
  • Or forward only outside your business hours for after-hours coverage.
  • New local numbers are available if you would rather test on a separate line first.

Speed Is The Whole Product

Research on inbound leads is consistent: the business that answers first usually wins the job. Nicole answers in about one second, which means you are the first business the caller actually speaks to, even when they are working down a list of five.

What Happens To Each Call Type

  • New customer enquiry: qualified, quoted at a range if you allow it, and booked.
  • Existing customer: identified, question answered or message taken.
  • Emergency: escalated to your cell immediately with the address and details.
  • Spam or sales call: ended politely without ever reaching you.

Reporting You Can Actually Use

Your dashboard shows call volume by hour and day, what callers asked about, how many appointments were booked and which calls were escalated — so you can see the demand you were previously missing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will an AI phone answering service work with my current phone provider?

Yes. It works through standard call forwarding, so it runs alongside any carrier or VoIP system you already use.

How fast does it answer?

Typically under one second — before the first ring finishes on the caller's end.

What happens if I go over my included minutes?

Every plan includes up to 250 minutes of AI call time per month. If you consistently need more, you move up a plan rather than being hit with surprise per-minute charges.

How much does it cost?

Plans start at $99/month (Starter), $199/month (Growth) and $299/month (Pro). Every plan includes up to 250 minutes of AI call time each month, 24/7 answering, call transcripts and text summaries. There are no per-call operator fees and no contracts.
