Front Desk
Front Desk is an AI receptionist that answers every call in your business's name.
Your number is on your truck, your sign, or your site to get customers. Nineteen of twenty calls are junk, so you stopped picking up. Call twenty was a customer.

Thanks for calling. Is this [business name]?
Uh, yes.
Great. For the next minute I am going to answer exactly as [business name] would. Pretend you are a customer who just found you on Google and is calling in. Go ahead.
Yeah, hi. Um, I have a, uh, residential property that has a, um, major leak in the kitchen.
I can help with that kitchen leak. Is this for a residence or a business?
It's a residence.
Got it. What is the address of the property?
[address].
Thank you. When do you need someone to come out? Today, this week, or a particular date?
Today, as soon as possible.
Understood, we will get someone out there today. May I have your full name, please?
[name].
Thanks, [name]. Is the number you are on now the best one to reach you?
Yeah.
[business name] will be in touch with you shortly. That is the demo. Everything I just took down would be in your inbox within a minute, with the transcript. How did that feel?
Felt great. Thank you.
Glad that felt smooth. If you have questions about forwarding your existing line, or setting business hours, after-hours or holiday coverage, I can answer those now.
Yeah, so how does that work? Uh, how do I forward my Android phone?
You keep your existing number and forward it just like you would to any other cell phone. The setup page gives you the exact steps for your carrier, and you can undo it whenever you like. Do you have any other questions before we hang up?
Um, where can I start doing this?
When you are ready, the page you started on walks you through setup. Have a great rest of your day!
The full transcript and the caller's details land in your inbox after every call.
Screening
A caller with a problem gets your business's name, their problem taken down, and lands in your inbox as a lead.
Front Desk takes their message like an assistant would: name, company, number, what they want. Filed, not delivered as a lead.
Robocalls get one sentence and a hang-up. Every call is logged with a transcript, labeled, and never mistaken for a customer.
Every call is in your inbox with a label. Only the customers come to you as leads.
Your customers call the same number they always have. You don't change your phone, your phone company or your business cards.

“The agent is very good.”
“I tried to trip it up a few different ways and it performed well. I also had it make some small talk on the phone as if a senior citizen called and wanted to have some level of conversation before requesting service, and it kept the conversation moving forward.”
01
A few questions: your business, your hours, and whether your phone rings first.
02
Send your calls to Front Desk: dial a short code on your phone, the same way you'd send calls to another phone. Nothing to install, nobody to train, no one from IT.
03
Call your own number from another phone and let it ring. That's your business answering.
A few questions, then a short code dialed on your phone. Front Desk is ready in about a minute.
Yes. You keep it. Your phone rings first; if you don't pick up, Front Desk answers. Or Front Desk answers every call. Your choice, and you can undo it in a minute.
Front Desk answers as your business, asks what's wrong, takes the caller's details, and the whole call is in your inbox when it ends.
Yes. Type it in plain English: "we're closed Christmas week," "if someone says the basement is flooding, flag it urgent." Front Desk does it from then on.
Front Desk answers them as your assistant, takes a message if there is one, logs the call with a label, and does not send it to you as a lead.
