04How it launches

Configured with you. Tested before it answers.

  1. 01

    We learn your business

    Services, service area, hours, pricing guidance, booking rules, and the questions callers ask most.

  2. 02

    We configure the agent

    Greeting, tone, qualification questions, and escalation paths are written with you — not generated and forgotten.

  3. 03

    We test it together

    You place test calls and review transcripts. Nothing goes live until the conversations meet your standard.

  4. 04

    It answers, you stay informed

    Every call becomes a contact, a summary, and — when appropriate — a booked appointment and an alert to your phone.

05Straight answers

What's required — and what we won't promise.

Some steps depend on carriers, platforms, or your own approvals. Here's what to expect before you commit.

  • Configured and tested per business

    The voice agent follows the knowledge, scripts, and rules we set up together. It isn't a general-purpose assistant and won't improvise outside them.

  • A person is always reachable

    Escalation and transfer rules are part of every setup. You can change them, or pause the AI and route calls to your team, at any time.

  • Phone connection

    Keep your current number with call forwarding, or port it. Porting timelines are set by carriers.

  • Call recording & disclosure

    Recording and AI disclosure requirements vary by state. We configure greetings to match your jurisdiction; your legal counsel should confirm.

  • Usage-based costs

    Voice minutes and phone numbers carry usage fees in addition to the subscription. See pricing for details.
