An AI receptionist that never misses a call.
Every missed call is a job or a client you'll never hear from again. Our AI phone receptionist answers 24/7 in a natural voice, books appointments straight into the calendar or booking system you already use, takes messages, and passes anything sensitive to a real person. It's set up by us and runs for you.

Why this exists
You can't answer the phone and do the job at the same time.
Most small firms miss a third of their calls. Callers don't leave voicemail. They ring the next number on the list.
An AI virtual receptionist takes the call the moment it rings, whether you're on site, in a meeting or closed for the night. It sounds like a helpful person, not a phone tree, and it knows your services, your hours and your diary.
What it does
A receptionist that books, qualifies and remembers.
Answers and books
Picks up every call, finds a slot and books it into Google Calendar, Outlook, Cliniko, Fresha, ServiceM8 or the system you already run. Confirmations go out by text automatically.
Takes the right details
Asks the questions you'd ask: what they need, where they are, when they want it. Sends you a clean summary instead of a voicemail you have to decode.
Knows when to hand over
Anything urgent, upset, medical or complex goes to a named person straight away, with the caller's details already captured. The AI never bluffs.
Works on WhatsApp and web chat too
The same receptionist answers your website chat and WhatsApp, so one setup covers every way a customer reaches you.
It's one of the AI agents we build, and the front-desk option in our AI solutions menu. Private and UK-hosted: call recordings and messages stay in the UK and are never used to train a public model.
Who it's for
Anyone who loses work when the phone goes unanswered.
Trades and services
Electricians, plumbers, builders and cleaners who are on a job when the next one calls.
Clinics, salons and studios
Physios, dentists, hair and beauty, and gyms where every missed call is a missed booking. Anything clinical is handed to a person.
Professional front desks
Small law firms, accountants and agencies that want new enquiries taken properly outside office hours.
FAQ
AI receptionist, answered.
Is it a real AI receptionist or a phone tree?
A real conversation. Callers talk normally and it understands them, asks follow-up questions and books the slot. There's no "press 1 for". If it can't help, it says so and passes the caller to a person with the details already captured.
Does it sound like a bot?
It uses a natural UK voice and speaks the way a helpful receptionist would. We're upfront that it's an AI assistant, and callers who want a person get one straight away.
Which booking systems does it work with?
Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, Cliniko, Fresha, ServiceM8, Calendly, and most systems with a calendar or an API. If yours isn't listed, we'll check it on the first call.
What happens with calls it can't handle?
It hands over. Urgent, upset, medical or complicated calls go to the person you name, immediately, with a summary of what the caller said. Nothing sensitive is decided by the AI.
What does it cost?
You start with a fixed-price pilot from £1,500 on your real calls, so you can hear it working before you commit. If you keep it, from £160 a month including hosting, monitoring and support. Every figure is agreed in writing and there's no long contract.
