FAQ
How does an AI receptionist work with my existing phone number?
Yes. We help configure forwarding. The options depend on your phone provider.
How is an AI receptionist different from a live answering service?
Traditional live answering services use human receptionists. Answer Ant uses an AI receptionist to answer approved questions, collect caller details, and email you a summary.
How does it learn about my business?
We use the business information and FAQs you review and approve.
What if it doesn’t know an answer?
It can take the question and the caller’s details for follow-up.
How do I get the details?
Through an email summary.
Does it speak Spanish?
Yes. Callers can say “español” or just start speaking Spanish, and the receptionist switches. Your summaries can come in English or Spanish.
Is it an AI?
Yes. It is an AI receptionist configured for your business.
Does it book appointments or transfer calls?
The current service focuses on answering questions and taking caller details.
When does the trial start?
After setup and testing are complete. The 14 days include 250 minutes, and no card is required. When the 14 days end, you can continue at $49/month or stop. If you stop, we help you remove call forwarding. Nothing is billed unless you continue.
