A real estate agent missed 3 calls during a property showing; two went to voicemail and never called back, the third called a competitor who booked a showing the same day.
With the AI receptionist, all three calls were answered instantly: one scheduled a tour for the next morning, another left a message for a callback, and the third was qualified as a serious buyer and forwarded to the agent immediately.
The AI is trained on a knowledge base specific to your agency, including property listings, pricing, and common FAQs. For questions it cannot answer, it politely gathers contact info and promises a callback from your team—ensuring the caller always feels heard and valued. You can also customize escalation rules to transfer to a human agent during your office hours. The system learns from interactions and can be updated anytime to cover new scenarios.
Absolutely. You can choose from natural-sounding voices, set the tone (friendly, professional, etc.), and personalize the greeting and qualification questions. The script is fully editable, so you can include your agency's branding, specific property inquiries, and even capture responses that integrate with your CRM or calendar system. Changes reflect instantly, giving you full control.
All interactions are recorded and transcribed, and the data is securely stored in compliance with privacy regulations (like GDPR and CCPA when applicable). The information collected (name, contact, budget, etc.) is automatically logged in your CRM, ensuring every lead is captured. You can access call logs and analytics anytime from a dashboard, and delete or export data as needed.
The AI is designed to handle most inquiries, but if a caller insists on speaking to a person, it can transfer the call to your office or mobile number during business hours. After hours, it can take a message or offer a scheduled callback. This hybrid approach ensures you never lose a lead while still providing a human touch when needed.
Yes, it integrates with standard phone lines and VoIP systems. You can forward your existing number to the AI service, or get a new dedicated number. Setup is typically quick—often in less than a day—and doesn't require hardware changes. The system works alongside your current setup, so there's no disruption.
Pricing is a flat monthly fee based on call volume, with no long-term commitment required. Most small agencies find the cost far lower than hiring a part-time receptionist, and the ROI shows in captured leads. You can start with a free trial to see the impact before committing. There are no hidden fees, and you can cancel anytime.
