FrontDesk AI

A digital team member for your front desk

FrontDesk AI answers the calls your team can't get to — after hours, at lunch, during a rush, or when the line is already busy. It greets the caller, gathers what's needed, checks your live calendar, books the appointment, and texts a confirmation. Your people stay in control of everything that matters.

Asked about first availability

With FrontDesk AI: 4 answered, 3 booked.

Every one of those calls gets a conversation, a calendar slot, and a text confirmation before your team walks in the next morning.

What it does

Everything a great receptionist does on the first call

Configured to your practice — your greeting, your hours, your appointment types, your rules.

Answers every call

Picks up in under two rings — nights, weekends, holidays, and whenever your line is already busy.

Books straight into your calendar

Checks live availability, offers real open times, and writes the appointment against the right staff member.

Qualifies the caller

Captures name, number, and the reason for the call, then flags anything urgent so it surfaces first.

Texts a confirmation

The caller gets the details in writing the moment the booking lands. No-shows drop, callbacks drop.

Routes what it shouldn't handle

Emergencies go to 911, complex questions go to your team, and everything else is handled end to end.

Stays inside its lane

It never diagnoses, quotes, or advises. It books the visit and leaves the expertise to your people.

Logs the whole call

Every conversation lands as a summary with the outcome, duration, and what the caller actually wanted.

Connects to your stack

Works with the calendar, CRM, and phone number you already use — no rip-and-replace.

Sounds like your business

Greeting, tone, hours, and rules are configured to your practice, not a generic script.

Anatomy of a call

One minute forty, start to booked

A typical after-hours call, from the first ring to the confirmation text and the logged summary.

0:00

Answers in under two rings with your greeting, your business name, and your tone of voice.

0:48

Checks real availability

Queries your live calendar for open slots against the right staff member, then offers real times.

1:20

Books it

Writes the appointment, reads the details back, and answers any last logistics question.

1:35

Confirms by text

The caller gets date, time, and address in writing before they've put the phone down.

1:40

Logs the call

A summary with outcome, duration, and what the caller wanted lands where your team can see it.

Why it matters

The phone stops being the bottleneck

Answer 24/7

Every caller reaches a professional voice — day, night, weekend, or when the office line is tied up.

Capture more revenue

The call you miss is the job your competitor books. FrontDesk AI turns it into an appointment instead.

Take work off the desk

Routine bookings, confirmations, and message-taking stop landing on your receptionist's plate.

Keep people in control

It handles the first touch and hands off the moment judgment is needed. Your team is never replaced.

Human-centered by design

It knows exactly where to stop

FrontDesk AI is deliberately narrow. It handles the first touch — the part your team can't always get to — and hands everything else to a person. These boundaries are written into the agent before it ever answers a call.

  • Never diagnoses, quotes prices, or gives professional advice
  • Sends anything that sounds like an emergency straight to 911
  • Hands off to a person the moment judgment is required
  • Only books appointment types and hours you have approved
  • Introduces itself as a virtual receptionist — never pretends to be human
  • Captures only what a booking needs: name, number, and reason for the call
How it works

From first conversation to live on your line

Two to four weeks, start to finish. We design it around your calls, connect it to your tools, and keep tuning it on real conversations.

01

Discover

We look at how calls reach you today, what gets missed, and what a booked job is worth to you.

02

Design

We write the greeting, the questions, and the hard rules — the things it must never say or do.

03

Connect

We wire it to your number, calendar, and CRM, then load your staff, hours, and appointment types.

04

Launch

It goes live on overflow and after-hours first, with every call logged so you can hear exactly how it went.

05

Tune

We review real transcripts with you and sharpen the script until it handles your calls the way you would.

Where it fits

Configured for your kind of caller

The script, the questions, and the hard rules change by industry — a plumbing call and an intake call are not the same conversation.

Home Services

Plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and repair calls booked to the right technician.

Dental & Medical

Patient bookings and waitlist requests taken without touching clinical advice.

Law Firms

After-hours intake and consultation scheduling, with no legal advice given.

Real Estate

Showing requests and buyer inquiries captured the minute they come in.

Contractors

Estimate requests logged with scope and urgency before the day starts.

Professional Services

Consultations booked and qualified while your team is with clients.

FAQ

Questions, answered

It introduces itself as your virtual receptionist — we never pretend it's a person. In practice callers care that someone picked up, understood them, and got them booked.

It takes a complete message and hands off to your team, or transfers live if you want it to. Anything that sounds like an emergency is sent straight to 911 before anything else.

No. It covers the calls your front desk can't get to — after hours, overflow, lunch breaks — so your receptionist can focus on the people in front of them.

Most deployments are live in two to four weeks: one week to design the script and connect your systems, then a tuning period on real calls.

It connects to the calendar, CRM, and phone number you already use — including HubSpot, GoHighLevel, ServiceTitan, Jobber, and most scheduling platforms via API.

Yes. Your number stays exactly as it is. We route unanswered and after-hours calls to the agent, and you decide which calls it takes.

Encrypted in transit and at rest, with access limited to your team. We only capture what a booking needs — name, number, and the reason for the call.
