AI phone answering questions
They should. We set the agent to say early in the call that it is an automated assistant for your business, and to offer a person when the caller asks for one. It is the honest way to run it, and it protects the trust a caller has in you.
We scope it with you. There are two parts: the setup (writing the answers and booking rules and connecting your calendar) and the running cost, which on most voice platforms is charged by the minute of call time. You see both before anything is built.
Yes, when your calendar can be connected. It checks open times and books while the caller is on the line. If your schedule lives in field service software, we check first whether that software allows a connection, and we tell you plainly if it does not.
Many voice agents can hold a conversation in Spanish as well as English. We test it with your real callers' questions in both languages before it answers your line, because an answer that reads well on paper can still confuse a caller.
It should say so, take a message and pass it to a person, never guess. AI can sound sure while being wrong, so the agent answers only from the knowledge base you approved, and someone reads the transcripts to catch mistakes early.
Usually not. Calls can be forwarded to the agent only after hours or only when your line is busy, so your number stays yours. Moving a number to a new carrier is a separate, slower step, and only worth doing if you want it.
