How it works
1
We build it
You answer 5 questions about your business. We build and configure your AI receptionist in under 72 hours.
2
You test it
We call you with your own AI receptionist on the line. You hear exactly what your customers will hear. One test call — that’s it.
3
It goes live
We flip it on. Your phone rings you first — if you don’t pick up in 3–4 rings, the AI answers seamlessly. Callers never know the difference.
Two routing modes
Default — recommended
Simultaneous Ring with AI Fallback
Your phone rings first. If you pick up — you get the call. If you don’t pick up within 3–4 rings — the AI answers seamlessly. After hours, AI picks up immediately. You never miss a lead, and you choose when to personally take the call.
AI First
Every call hits the AI immediately. It qualifies, answers questions, and books appointments. Your phone only rings when the AI decides to transfer. Best for high-volume businesses — dental, legal, contractors with 20+ calls/day.

Common questions
What does it sound like?
Natural and conversational — not robotic. It uses your business name, knows your services and hours, and speaks the way a well-trained receptionist would. Most callers don’t realize it’s AI.
Can I keep my current phone number?
Yes. We set up a dedicated ScaleLocal line that forwards to your cell. Your existing number stays yours. Customers can call either one.
What if the AI can’t handle a question?
It transfers the call to you immediately. You set the rules — certain questions, VIP callers, or urgent situations always route to your phone.
How quickly can it be live?
72 hours from when you answer 5 simple questions about your business. Most of the build is automated — we just need to know your services, hours, and how you want calls handled.
Is the $997 setup fee negotiable?
No. It covers the full build, configuration, call testing, and go-live. We don’t cut corners on the setup because a bad first impression on a caller costs you more than $997.
Can I cancel?
Yes. The standalone AI Receptionist is month-to-month after the setup fee. Cancel anytime with 30 days notice.
