Good to know
Best together
Many businesses keep their receptionist and let the AI pick up after hours, on busy days, or when the line is engaged.
When a person is better
Complaints, sensitive conversations and complex negotiations. The AI hands these over instead of guessing.
Incoming calls only
The AI receptionist answers people who call you. Outbound follow-up calls are optional, billed at ₹8/min from your wallet, only to people who expect your call.
