Frequently asked questions
How much does virtual receptionist services cost?
Our AI Front Desk Agent starts at $39/month as an add-on to any website plan, and full custom AI phone answering setups run $99–$299/month depending on call volume and integrations. There are no per-minute charges and setup is included.
How fast can virtual receptionist services go live?
Most Bay Area businesses are live in 3–5 business days. We train the AI on your services and FAQs, test it with you on a live call, then forward your number when you approve.
Will callers know they are talking to AI?
The voice is natural and conversational, and we are upfront in the greeting when you want us to be. Callers who ask for a human are transferred to you or your team immediately.
What happens if the AI cannot answer a question?
It takes a detailed message and, if you want, warm-transfers the caller to your cell or your on-call tech. You never lose the lead, and we add the missed question to the training set.
Does it work with my calendar and CRM?
Yes. We connect Google Calendar for real availability, and push leads to your email, SMS, and most popular CRMs so your follow-up workflow stays the same.
