Dont loose a single job. Let Clara handle clients when you're busy...

Consider all your calls recorded, assisted or transferred 24 hours per day. Clara knows your service, and remembers your clients.

Everything a real receptionist does, and more.

Nights, weekends, holidays. Your phone always picks up, even when you're asleep or up a ladder. Callers reach a warm voice instead of a voicemail beep — and you keep the job.

On duty 365 nights a year — no sick days, no holidays

Speaks human, not robot!

A warm, patient voice that knows your business. Most callers just care that someone picked up.

Real emergencies get transferred

You choose what counts as urgent. Those calls ring straight through. The rest wait until morning.

No manuals, ever

If you can forward a call, you can use TalkAI. Click, save, done — and we help you set it up on the phone, free.

After 5pm, almost no callers leave messages when they need urgent help

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

Most never ask. TalkAI introduces itself as your receptionist, speaks naturally, pauses, listens, and never rushes a stressed caller. If someone does ask, it answers honestly — and then gets right back to helping them.

You set the rules. TalkAI can patch urgent calls straight through to your on-call tech, or book the first emergency slot and text you immediately. Burst pipe at 2 AM? You decide whether your phone rings.

About ten minutes. Keep your number, forward your line after close, tell us your services and service area — done. You can change anything later by texting us.

It never bluffs. If a caller asks something outside its brief, it takes a detailed message, promises a call-back window, and texts you the full conversation instantly.

No. Your number stays exactly the same — TalkAI only picks up when you'd otherwise miss the call.

Tonight, somebody’s water heater will burst. Be the company that picks up.
