The process
From conversation to live AI in 4 steps
No long contracts, no technical headaches, no months of back-and-forth. We've done this dozens of times — we know how to move fast without cutting corners.
01
Discovery
We learn your business in 10 minutes
Talk to our AI — via voice, chat, or a quick form. It asks the right questions: What does your business do? Where are you losing the most time? What does a typical customer journey look like? What tools do you already use?
Our AI has been trained on 33 industries and 20 implementation types. It already knows the problems your industry faces — it just needs to confirm which ones apply to you most.
Real Example
Mike owns a 3-location HVAC company. In 8 minutes, our AI identifies he's losing ~$12,000/month to missed after-hours calls and slow lead follow-up on web form submissions.
02
Recommendation
You get a specific plan, not a vague pitch
On the same call, we tell you exactly what we'd implement, what it does in your specific context, and what it costs. No "let me get back to you." No proposal that takes a week. Real answers, right now.
We recommend only what makes sense for your business size, revenue, and problems. If one implementation won't pay for itself, we don't recommend it.
Real Example
We recommend two implementations: AI Voice Receptionist ($497 setup, $297/mo) and AI Outbound Calling ($697 setup, $397/mo). Total investment: $1,194 setup, $694/mo. Estimated ROI: $8,400/month recovered. Payback period: 5 days.
03
Implementation
We build it. You watch.
You don't touch a thing. We provision the phone numbers, configure the AI with your business knowledge, test every scenario, and integrate with your existing tools.
Typical setup: Day 1 is onboarding and knowledge collection. Day 2 is build and testing. Day 3 you're live. For complex multi-system implementations, we allow up to 5 business days.
Real Example
Day 1: Mike's onboarding call, we collect his services, hours, and top 10 FAQs. Day 2: We build his AI receptionist, provision his Twilio number, configure his outbound dialer. Day 3: Test calls pass. Mike goes live. First after-hours call answered at 11:47pm — lead booked.
04
Maintain
It keeps getting better every month
Your AI doesn't stay static. Your monthly retainer covers performance monitoring, knowledge updates when your services change, and optimization based on real conversation data.
Every month you get a performance report: calls handled, leads qualified, appointments booked, reviews generated, revenue attributed. We show our work. And every implementation includes AI Customer Memory — your AI remembers every caller permanently and gets smarter with every interaction.
Real Example
Month 1 report: 143 calls handled, 31 appointments booked, 8 outbound leads converted. AI flagged 4 new FAQ topics it didn't know — we trained them in. Mike's AI gets smarter every month without him doing anything.
