Receptionist

You are at work.The phone rings.Marianna picks up.

Marianna answers in your company's name, at any hour, in the caller's own language. She notes the request, offers a slot if you allow it, and your team receives it all in writing, with the number. She never gives a price, never a lead time: the quoting is yours.

The first meeting is free, with no commitment.

  • You keep your number
  • The artificial intelligence says so at the start of the call
  • Your team keeps the decision

Her job description: 4 lines of 4

Everything can be tailored

Her brain is your job description.

Marianna arrives with the vocabulary of your trade. Everything else, you write: your opening hours, what you offer, what counts as urgent for you, what she never says. Each line applies from the next call, without going through us.

  • You writeOpening hours

    The office is closed on Saturdays.

    On the phone, on a Saturday morning

    “I'm afraid our office is closed on Saturdays, we're open Monday through Friday. I'd be happy to book you a showroom visit appointment for one of those days though, would that work for you?”

  • You writeWhat is genuinely urgent

    Urgent: an awning left open before a storm, a garage door that is stuck. Everything else waits until Monday.

    On the phone, on a Sunday evening

    “Your request is recorded as urgent for the Stores Exemple team. Please stay reachable.”

    The on-call mobile you give us receives the alert by SMS.

  • You writeWhat you offer

    We also fit made-to-measure insect screens.

    On the phone

    “Yes, we do. We fit made-to-measure insect screens: roller screens, pleated screens, fixed, hinged or sliding models. Would you like to get a quote, or do you have a specific project in mind?”

  • You writeWhat she never says

    Never name our suppliers.

    On the phone

    “Thank you for asking, but I'm not able to share supplier names, that's confidential information.”

Her CV

The position, as she holds it.

What she can do, what she refuses to do, and what she cannot do. All of it is written down.

Position
Receptionist.
Employer
Your company. She picks up in your name, with your number.
Hours
Day and night, weekends and public holidays included.
Languages
French, German, Italian, English, Portuguese. The caller is served in their own language, and your team receives it all in its own.
What she says about herself
“I am an artificial intelligence, and I say so with my first sentence.”
Availability
Yes.
Strengths
  • She asks for the address before anything else, for a call-out.
  • She never invents a price, a lead time, a guarantee, a state of progress.
  • She turns down cold calls without recording anything.
  • She leaves a written record of every call, even an interrupted one.

Weaknesses

The section no candidate ever fills in.

  • Without an integration, she does not transfer calls. She offers a call-back.
  • Without an integration, she has no diary. Her appointments stay subject to confirmation until you click.
  • She refuses to give a price, even when pressed.

From day one, and on request

What she does on her own, and what we connect for you.

From day one, she runs the front desk with her job description. Your tools are connected on request: priced and planned in advance, never promised for tomorrow.

From day one

She takes, she passes on, and she stops where she should.

  • She takes the request and passes it on in writing, with the caller's number.
  • She confirms nothing without you: an appointment stays subject to confirmation until you click.
  • She makes nothing up: no price, no lead time, no progress update.
  • What matters is refused by our server, not only by her voice: a repair with no address does not go through.
  • She turns down cold calls without recording anything.
  • Someone who hangs up after explaining what they want still leaves a record.

On request, with an integration

Anything that touches your tools gets connected.

  • Your diary or your schedule: firm appointments, based on your real availability.
  • Your management software: the status of a file, an order or a stock level, instead of a message taken.
  • Call transfer to someone on your team, at the hours you set.
  • Your prices and lead times, if you want her to give them, exactly as you write them.
  • Your SMS and email texts, and your internal alerts.

Each connection has a setup price, paid once, quoted after our first conversation and put in writing before you commit.

Let's talk about your tools

The trades

One job description per trade.

She arrives with the vocabulary of the trade, the calls it receives and the questions that must be asked. You correct, she applies.

Do you run a restaurant? That is Arthur's trade. Read Arthur's CV

Work that goes beyond answering the phone? Let us talk about your project

The Receptionist area

What she takes reaches you, plainly set out.

One screen, four actions. Nothing to install, nothing to export.

The requests, by type and by status

The urgent ones rise to the top. You see what is waiting, what is being handled and what is closed.

One person responsible per request

You assign it to a member of the team, and the log keeps every action with the person behind it.

An appointment confirmed in one click

The slot stays subject to confirmation for as long as you have not clicked. Your click sends the second text message.

Her job description, which you correct

You change a line, she applies it from the next call, without going through us.

The price

The same contracts as for Arthur.

VAT included, no commitment. The contracts and what they cover are on the pricing page. An integration with your tools comes with a one-off setup price, quoted in advance according to what we connect.

To begin

The first meeting is free.

No commitment. We look with you at how your calls come in, what is urgent for you and what can wait, then we write her job description in your words.

  1. You tell us your trade and how to reach you.
  2. The team gets back to you to agree on a time.
  3. We prepare her job description together, and you decide afterwards.

Request a first meeting

Above all, tell us how many calls you take and what gets in your way today. That is what lets us answer you usefully.

What brings you here

Your details are used to reply to you and kept in our prospect records for three years. Our technical providers may process them to deliver this service. You can request deletion at any time. Our privacy policy lists the recipients and processing locations.

The next call, leave it to Marianna.

You keep your number. She picks up in your name, and you receive the record.
