Press play on the sample calls at the top of this page. That is how it sounds to your callers. You pick a voice during setup.
What does it do on a call?
It answers with your company name, finds out what the caller needs and where the job is, and texts you the lead. It does not book onto your calendar. If it is an emergency, it sends the call to the person you pick.
Do I keep my number?
Yes. You keep your number and set it to forward the calls you don't pick up. Your phone still rings first. See call forwarding steps for your phone company.
What if it can't answer a question?
It only says what you approved. If a caller asks something else, it takes a message and texts it to you.
Does it work with my phone company?
It works with mobile and office lines that can forward calls. Setup shows the steps for Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile and common office lines. Not sure? Book a 30-min call and we will do it with you. See call forwarding steps for your phone company.
