Engine 1 · Missed Call Receptionist

Never lose another lead to a missed call.

The Missed Call Receptionist is a 24/7 AI phone agent that answers inbound calls, makes outbound follow-up calls, qualifies leads, books appointments, and handles FAQs — completely on autopilot. Call forwarding is included, so missed, busy, and after-hours calls route straight to the AI without changing your published business number.

24/7 live coverage $297/mo flat Call forwarding included Live in 5–10 days

No long-term contracts. Keep your existing business number. Usage-based voice minutes passed through at cost.

85% of customers who can't reach a business on the first call never call back.

Every missed call is a lost booking, a lost quote request, or a competitor's win. The Missed Call Receptionist makes sure every caller reaches an intelligent, human-sounding response — even at 2 AM, on a Sunday, or when your team is with another customer.

How It Works

Three steps. Zero missed calls.

You keep your existing business number. We handle everything else — call forwarding setup, AI training on your services, and CRM connection.

1

Forward missed & after-hours calls

Call forwarding is included. We configure your existing business phone to send missed, busy, or after-hours calls to the AI receptionist. You choose the rules — forward everything, or only overflow.

2

AI answers, qualifies, and books

Callers hear a natural, human-sounding AI trained on your services, pricing, hours, and FAQs. It qualifies the lead, books appointments directly into your calendar, and routes hot leads to your team when needed.

3

Every call logged to your CRM

Transcripts, summaries, outcomes, and contact records are auto-updated in your CRM. You wake up to a full report — new bookings, hot leads, and any calls that need human follow-up.

Compliance

Built for lawful, transparent AI phone handling.

The Missed Call Receptionist is a powerful tool — and the business operating each campaign is responsible for compliant use under applicable federal and state laws. Here's what to know before launch.

Legal & Regulatory Notes

  • TCPA (outbound calls): Any outbound calls or SMS you initiate through the AI must comply with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) — including prior express written consent for marketing calls to wireless numbers, and honoring do-not-call and internal opt-out lists.
  • Two-Party-Consent Recording: Twelve U.S. states (California, Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, and others) require all parties on a call to consent before recording. If your customers are in these states, we recommend a brief opening disclosure ("This call may be recorded for quality and training purposes") — we script this during onboarding.
  • AI Disclosure: A growing number of jurisdictions (including California under SB 1001) require that callers be informed when they are interacting with an AI rather than a human. We include a natural, brand-appropriate AI disclosure in the opening greeting by default — you can customize the exact wording.
  • A2P 10DLC (SMS follow-up): Any post-call SMS the AI sends must run on a registered A2P 10DLC brand and campaign, with express opt-in, message frequency disclosure, "Msg & data rates may apply," and STOP / HELP keywords. See our Privacy Policy and Communication Preferences page for the disclosures already in place on this site.
  • Call Data & Retention: All transcripts, summaries, and recordings are logged to your CRM contact record. You own that data. See our Privacy Policy for full details on retention and customer rights.
FAQ

Answers before you ask.

Do I have to change my business phone number?
No. Call forwarding is included. You keep your existing published number. We configure call forwarding rules through your phone provider — typically forwarding only missed, busy, or after-hours calls to the AI receptionist. You can also forward 100% of calls if you'd like the AI to be the primary answer point.
Can the AI actually book appointments into my calendar?
Yes. The Missed Call Receptionist can book directly into a connected calendar (Google Calendar, Outlook, or a CRM-native booking calendar). The AI confirms availability, collects required details, and sends the customer a text or email confirmation — no staff involvement required.
How natural does the AI actually sound?
Very. The Missed Call Receptionist uses a natural, human-sounding voice trained on your brand tone. Most callers can't tell they're speaking with an AI — and by default we include a brief AI disclosure in the opening greeting to comply with laws like California SB 1001. You can preview and approve the exact voice and script during onboarding.
What happens if the AI can't answer a question?
The AI is trained to gracefully hand off to a human. You define the rules — for example, hot leads or complex questions can be immediately transferred to a live team member, texted to an on-call number, or logged as a callback task with full context. No caller gets stuck in a loop.
How long does setup take?
Typically 5–10 business days from onboarding call to live phone number. That includes voice selection, script writing, call forwarding configuration, CRM integration, calendar connection, and a full test-call round before go-live.
What does the $297/mo actually cover?
Everything except the raw voice minutes. That includes: 24/7 AI phone agent, custom voice + script + business rules, call forwarding setup, appointment booking, lead qualification, human handoff, transcription + summaries, and CRM integration. Voice minutes are usage-based and passed through at cost — for most local businesses this adds a small amount on top of the flat fee, and you always see exact minute usage in your dashboard.
Can I start with just this engine and add the others later?
Yes. The Missed Call Receptionist works on its own at $297/mo. If you later want to add the Website Social Agent ($297/mo) or the 5 Star Review System ($297/mo), you can upgrade to the full Triple Growth Bundle at any time — bundled pricing is $597/mo instead of $891/mo when you take all three together.
Is there a long-term contract?
No. Month-to-month, no long-term contract. You can pause or cancel with standard notice. All call data, transcripts, and contact records remain in your CRM — you own that data.
