Questions about AI answering?
What is an AI answering service?
An AI answering service uses artificial intelligence to answer your business calls automatically. Unlike traditional call centers or voicemail, AI can have natural conversations, understand context, book appointments, take detailed messages, and handle common customer questions—all without human intervention.
How good is AI at answering phone calls?
Modern AI like Alice can handle 95%+ of routine business calls with human-like quality. Callers often can't tell they're speaking with AI. Alice understands natural speech, handles interruptions, asks follow-up questions, and adapts to each conversation context.
Is AI answering cheaper than a human receptionist?
Yes, significantly. A full-time receptionist costs $3,000-5,000/month including salary, benefits, and overhead. Alice starts at $49/month for unlimited calls—that's 98% savings while providing 24/7 coverage that a single human can't match.
Can AI book appointments and integrate with my calendar?
Yes! Alice integrates with Google Calendar to book appointments in real-time during calls. She can check your availability, suggest times, send confirmation texts to customers, and avoid double-bookings—all during the call.
How does the AI learn about my business?
During a 5-minute setup, you share your website URL and answer a few questions about your services. Alice analyzes this information to understand your business, pricing, service areas, and common customer questions. She continues to improve based on call feedback.
What happens if the AI can't answer a question?
If Alice encounters a question outside her training, she politely takes a detailed message and notifies you immediately via text and email. You can then follow up personally or update her knowledge base for future calls.
Does AI answering work for my industry?
Alice works great for service businesses including HVAC, plumbing, electrical, law firms, medical practices, real estate, property management, and more. Any business that receives phone inquiries can benefit from AI answering.
Is my customer data secure with AI?
Yes. Alice uses enterprise-grade encryption for all calls and data. We're SOC 2 compliant and never sell or share your customer information. All recordings and transcripts are stored securely and accessible only to you.
