What is the AI Voice Receptionist? The AI Voice Receptionist is a total voicemail replacement, enabling businesses to answer calls 24/7 with an AI-powered receptionist. This feature ensures businesses never miss another call, even outside of business hours. The AI Voice Receptionist can: Answer frequently asked questions (FAQs) Capture contact details Send a detailed call summary to the business for follow-up Customers no longer need to leave voicemails or face unanswered calls, improving their experience and reducing the chance of them turning to competitors. Availability Please note that this feature is currently in Open Beta.  Voice AI is an early and evolving technology. It can perform incredibly well in many scenarios, but also might experience some less than ideal conversations. We are excited to bring big improvements over time as you and your customers experience Voice AI. This feature is currently available for businesses based in the USA and Canada that have activated Inbox Pro and been assigned a phone number.  Why Choose the AI Voice Receptionist? When a business is busy or unavailable, they still want new leads and customers to be taken care of quickly without making them wait. Before:A caller reaches out to a business, but if the call isn’t answered, it might go to voicemail or simply ring indefinitely. This often leads to customer frustration and missed opportunities, as leads go to the next business that answers the phone. Now:With the AI Voice Receptionist, every call receives an answer—24/7. Even if the business cannot respond immediately, the AI voice receptionist: Represents the business professionally Answers questions Captures the caller’s request and contact information for follow-up Key Features Always Available – The AI receptionist answers the phone any time of day, even during holidays or after business hours. This allows some businesses to set their business hours to be open longer.  The AI can also answer multiple calls simultaneously, allowing you to capture more leads without anyone getting a busy signal. Multi-Language Support – Supports multiple languages including English, French, Spanish, German, Tagalog, Hebrew, Chinese and many more. Note: Multi-lingual capabilities are in beta, and results may vary. Answer FAQs – The AI receptionist is trained with business-specific knowledge, enabling it to answer detailed questions about products, services, hours of operation, and more. This saves time for both staff and customers by providing immediate responses. Lead Capture – The AI understands caller requests and gathers their contact information, ensuring businesses can follow up efficiently. Call Recordings and Transcripts – All calls are logged in the CRM with recordings, transcripts, and summarized action items for easy review by the business team. Customizable Personality – Tailor the AI receptionist’s personality to align with your brand. Whether you prefer a calm and professional tone or a bubbly and playful demeanor, it’s up to you. Configurable Conversations – Control how the AI handles calls: Decide how it answers the phone Specify FAQs it can address Redirect callers to specific resources (e.g., website for reservations) How to Set Up and Use the AI Voice Receptionist Ensure Eligibility: AI Voice call receptionist is available to users of Inbox Pro in USA or Canada. Ensure an active phone number is assigned to the account. (Note: A2P registration is not required to start using calling features on the assigned phone number.) Enable the AI Voice Receptionist: Go to Business App > AI Workforce > AI Voice Receptionist > Configure. Check on “Phone call: Answer with Voice AI” and hit save. Test the default Voice Receptionist by calling your assigned number. Customize the AI Receptionist: Assign a custom name to the AI. Update business knowledge to ensure accurate database from which it can lookup answers. Add 'additional instructions' for common caller scenarios: Example: IMPORTANT: When you answer the phone, say "Hello...." Example: “If someone asks about reservations, direct them to [website.com].” Example: “If someone inquires about sending a fax, provide... relevant instructions. Customizing AI Voice Receptionist Options:  There are multiple voices to choose from, divided into different families—each with their own strengths. Businesses can now select from: Astra: Multilingual, less expressive, slower speaking Horizon: Multilingual, very expressive Deepgram Aura (New): English-only, highly accurate speech recognition, slightly robotic tone The Deepgram Aura voice family includes 16 new English-only voices designed for more reliable and accurate caller understanding, especially in noisy or difficult audio conditions. While these voices are less expressive than other options, their strength lies in understanding callers clearly and consistently—making them ideal for public-facing businesses that prioritize precision over tone. Note: Deepgram is currently English-only and may sound more robotic compared to Astra or Horizon voices, but offers superior speech recognition accuracy. Each voice family provides different strengths, ensuring businesses can select the tone, accent, and personality that align best with their customer base. How to Select a Voice Option: Navigate to Business App > AI Workforce > AI Voice Receptionist > Configure. Locate the Voice Settings section. Choose your preferred voice from Astra, Horizon, or Deepgram. Click the play icon to preview voices before selecting. Save changes and test by calling your AI receptionist number. Set a business phone number to forward missed calls to your AI Voice number A business can work with their phone provider to forward missed or busy calls to your Voice AI receptionist.  Many phone providers have instructions on how to do this.

Automate Follow-Up via SMS To enhance the AI Voice Receptionist experience, businesses can automate follow-up SMS messages after a call. Using the pre-built automation template, 'AI Receptionist sends follow-up SMS to leads who called,' businesses can: Trigger an SMS follow-up when a call is made to the AI Voice Receptionist. Generate a personalized message based on the call transcript. Send the SMS automatically through Inbox and Automations. This automation ensures that every caller receives an immediate follow-up, reinforcing engagement and preventing lost opportunities. How to Enable This Automation You or your clients can turn it on in Business App > Automations > AI Receptionist sends follow-up SMS to leads who called > [toggle on]. Frequently Asked Questions 1.

The open beta preview is highly capable, but you may see unexpected behavior.
