Never lose a customer to a missed call again.

How it works

Nothing changes about your business number. This only kicks in when a call would've been missed anyway.

1

Forward missed calls

A 2-minute setting on your existing phone — forward only when you don't pick up.

2

AI answers instantly

A natural conversation, not a robotic menu. It knows your hours, services, and pricing.

3

Captures the lead

Name, callback number, and what they need — never a guess, never invented information.

4

You get a text

Within seconds. Call the lead back on your own time, no app to check.

Honest, not scripted

The AI only ever says what's actually true about your business — your real hours, your real pricing, your real policies. If it doesn't know something, it says so and takes a message instead of guessing. A wrong answer from an AI receptionist is worse than no answer at all, and we built it that way on purpose.

Call limits aren't a hard cutoff right at the line — the AI keeps answering as you approach and even go past your plan's limit, and we'll text you a heads up along the way (at 50%, 90%, and 100% usage) so you can decide if it's time to move up a tier. There's a generous buffer built in (115% of your plan) before anything changes.

Let's get your phone covered

Takes one short call to set up. No tech knowledge needed on your end.
