How local businesses stop losing jobs to voicemail

Three minutes with founder Nico Spallone: what we build, what it costs you not to have it, and how setup works.

Seen enough? Pick a time and we’ll map out exactly what your business needs.

What we build

One team for every agent your business needs

Start with a single receptionist or have us run the whole system. Everything is shaped around how your business already works.

Where most businesses start

AI receptionists and voice agents

A natural voice that answers every call, day or night, the way your best front-desk person would. Then it books the job.

  • Answers questions about services, hours and pricing rules
  • Books, reschedules and confirms in your calendar
  • Qualifies leads and transfers urgent calls to you
  • Texts confirmations and sends you every call summary

Website and text chat

The same knowledge on your site and by text, like the assistant on this page.

Automations

The follow-up work that slips through the cracks, done for you.

For businesses ready to scale

Agentic operating systems

A command center connecting your phone, calendar, CRM, email and books, with AI agents working inside it. You see the whole business on one screen and get a brief every morning.

Websites that convert

Premium sites like this one, with the agents built in from day one.

The cost of voicemail

What every missed call is really worth

Most callers who reach voicemail never leave a message. They call the next business. Move the sliders to see what that adds up to.

Calls you can’t pick up

You’re with a customer or closed. The job goes to whoever answers.

Leads that go cold

Forms and texts wait for hours. The first business to respond usually wins.

Admin that eats your evenings

Reminders, follow-ups, reviews and data entry. Repetitive work, perfect for AI.

$6,820

Estimated revenue walking away every month, from your own numbers. An AI receptionist answers every one of those calls.
