How to Set Up an AI Receptionist in One Day

A step-by-step plan to get an AI receptionist answering your business calls today: plan, script, test, coach and forward.

Quick answer (How do I set up an AI receptionist?)

You can usually go from sign-up to answering real calls in a day. Here’s the order that works.

1. Pick a plan (5 minutes)

Choose a plan by how many minutes of calls you get. You can change plans later.

2. Get your ready-made agent (minutes)

We read your website and build the greeting, services, questions and closing.

3. Test it in your browser (15 minutes)

Press Test my agent and talk to it like a customer would. Try a normal call, a rushed caller and someone who doesn’t fit any option.

4. Coach it (15 minutes)

Tap any line you wouldn’t say, type how you’d say it and save. It uses your wording on the next call.

5. Forward your calls (5 minutes)

Forward every call, only after-hours calls, or only the calls you don’t pick up. See carrier codes.

6. Make a test call and check the summary

Call your business number from another phone and check the email summary (and the text alert, if you turned texts on).
