It answers at 9pm on a Sunday.
Ryder Schilling builds and runs an AI receptionist that answers your business phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, under your own brand. It answers common questions, qualifies the caller, books the appointment straight onto your calendar, and texts you a summary.
The problem it fixes
Most local businesses lose more work to an unanswered phone than to any competitor. The call comes in while you are on a job, on a ladder, with a customer, or asleep. The caller does not leave a voicemail. They call the next business on the list.
The AI receptionist picks up every one of those calls. It speaks in your business's voice, knows your services, your hours and your service area, and it books the job rather than taking a message.
