Questions businesses ask

Frequently asked questions.

Can an AI receptionist answer 24/7?

It can be configured for extended or continuous availability, subject to the phone provider, integrations and business rules used.

Can it book appointments?

Yes, when connected to an approved calendar or scheduling workflow and the booking rules are clearly defined.

What happens when the AI is unsure?

The workflow should route the caller to a person, collect a callback request or create an internal alert.

Can it use our own business information?

Yes. The agent can be grounded in selected information such as services, hours, FAQs, locations and policies.
