Everything You Need to Never Miss a Call

01

Every Caller's Details, Captured Automatically

AI receptionist collecting caller details on a clipboard

Missed details mean missed revenue. Name, phone number, reason for calling — captured automatically on every call.

Everything is searchable in your dashboard. No more guessing who called or what they needed.

02

Call Recordings and Full Transcripts

Call recording and transcript with audio waveform

No record of what was said means disputes and lost details. Every call is recorded and transcribed automatically.

Listen to the recording, read the transcript, or skim the AI summary. Search any call by keyword, name, or date.

03

Handles Unlimited Calls at the Same Time

AI receptionist handling multiple simultaneous phone calls

A busy signal sends customers straight to your competitor. Your AI receptionist handles unlimited simultaneous calls — every one answered immediately.

No hold music, no busy signals. Works especially well during seasonal rushes and ad campaign spikes.

04

Follow-Up Tasks and Contact History

Automatic follow-up tasks and contact history

Forgotten callbacks cost you customers. Follow-up tasks are created automatically after each call, so nothing slips through.

Every contact has a complete history — calls, summaries, action items — in one place. See who needs attention at a glance.

05

Works Nights, Weekends, and Holidays

24/7 answering service always open

Customers call nights, weekends, and holidays. If nobody answers, they call the next business. Your AI receptionist works 24/7/365 — never sick, never on vacation.

You set the rules: all calls, after-hours only, or overflow when your line is busy.

Trusted Across Every Industry

Trusted by 600+ small businesses

During the first heat wave last summer we got slammed with calls. I was on a rooftop unit and my phone was blowing up with texts from the answering service. We booked 9 extra AC repairs that week that would have gone to voicemail.

During termite season I was missing ten calls a day while crawling under houses. Now every call gets answered and I get a text before I even finish the inspection. I booked eight extra termite jobs last month just from calls I would have lost.

Owner, Defender Pest Control · Houston, TX

After a hailstorm last April we got slammed with calls. I was on a roof all day and missed most of them. Now every call gets answered and I get a text with the address and damage details. We booked 18 extra inspections that week we would have lost.

Owner, StormShield Roofing · Oklahoma City, OK

We were missing 5-6 calls a day during summer. Now every call gets answered and I get a text with the move details while I'm on a job. Last month alone we booked 12 extra moves we would have lost.

Owner, TopLine Moving · Dallas, TX

Tax season used to mean 15 missed calls a day. Now every single one gets answered while I am heads-down in returns. I picked up eight new clients last quarter just from calls I would have missed before.

Patricia L.

Owner, Lakewood Tax & Accounting · Portland, OR

I was losing two or three good leads a week because I could not answer the phone during client sessions. Last quarter I traced four new engagements directly back to calls my receptionist handled while I was in workshops.

Owner, Ridgeline Strategy · Austin, TX

I was missing emergency calls every week while I was up on a ladder or inside a panel. Now every call gets answered and I get a text with the address and what is going on. I have picked up at least eight extra emergency jobs a month since switching.

Dave R.

Dave R.

Owner, Bright Wire Electric · Phoenix, AZ

I spend half my day in client meetings and the other half quoting. I was sending 3-4 calls a day to voicemail and losing them to the agency down the street. Now every quote request is waiting for me when I get back to my desk. I wrote eight extra policies last month from calls I would have missed.

Laura K.

Laura K.

Agency Owner, Keystone Insurance Group · Phoenix, AZ

I was losing buyer leads every single showing. My phone would ring three times and I could not pick up. Now every call gets answered and I get a text with their budget and pre-approval status. I closed four extra deals last quarter just from leads I would have missed.

The Math on Missed Calls

A typical small business misses ~10 calls a week. 8 of those 10 never call back — they dial the next business in Google. At a $500–$2,000 average job, recovering even one missed call a month pays for SimpleAnswering many times over.
