Questions owners ask
Straight answers.
Will callers know they're talking to an AI?
Yes. Your assistant tells callers it is an AI assistant for your shop. We don't pretend it's a person.
Are calls recorded?
Yes. The assistant tells callers the call is recorded. That's how you get an accurate summary after each call.
What happens when it can't answer a question?
It won't make things up. It takes the caller's details and the question, tells them someone will follow up, and includes it in your email summary. If it's urgent, it transfers the call to you.
How do transfers work?
You decide what counts as urgent, like no heat in a freeze or a burst pipe. When a call fits, the assistant transfers it to your phone.
Can I cancel?
Yes. The trial is free for 14 days, and after that it's month to month. No contract. Cancel anytime.
