Hear Hallie answer for a shop like yours

Sample businesses for the demo. Hallie works for almost any shop that answers a phone: electricians, roofers, cleaners, locksmiths, offices and more.

What Hallie does

More than an answering service.

Answering the phone is just the start. Hallie books appointments, chases the follow-ups and keeps customers coming back, all included in your plan.

Answers every call

Nights, weekends, lunch rush, or while you're with a customer. Callers get a friendly answer in English or Spanish instead of voicemail.

Books appointments

Takes the details and books into your Google or Outlook calendar, following your rules and your hours.

Texts back missed calls

Someone hangs up before leaving a message? Hallie texts them right back, so they don't call your competitor.

Sends reminders

Reminder texts the day before and the morning of, so you get fewer no-shows and wasted trips.

Gets you reviews

After the job, happy customers get a friendly text asking for a Google review, and you get replies written for you.

Follows up on leads

Callers who wanted a quote or weren't ready to book get a follow-up text, so warm leads don't go cold.

Answers texts and messages

Replies to customer texts and Facebook messages with your hours, prices and booking info.

Sends urgent calls to you

Emergencies and callers who need you get transferred to your cell, or flagged so you see them first.

Keeps you in the loop

A text summary after every call: who called, what they need, and what got booked. Nothing to log into.

She only says what you approve, and takes a message when she doesn't know. Reminder and follow-up calls placed for you are quoted on the free call.

Questions

Good questions owners ask

Will callers know it's AI?

If they ask, Hallie tells them she's a virtual assistant. Most callers just want their question answered or the appointment booked, and she does that in a natural, friendly voice. Hear for yourself with the button above.

Do I need a new phone number or new phone?

No. Customers keep calling the number on your sign, your cards and your Google listing. You dial one short code so calls you don't answer go to Hallie instead of voicemail. Dial another code and everything is back the way it was. Cell phones, landlines and office systems all work.

How does she book appointments?

Google or Outlook calendars connect in one click, and she books right into them. Many booking apps can connect too; we check yours on the free call. Use a paper book? Hallie keeps the calendar and texts you every booking.

Can I pick her voice, her name and what she says?

Yes. Choose from natural voices, keep "Hallie" or use any name you like, and set your rules: what counts as an emergency, what she can quote, who she transfers to, and whether she answers every call or only after hours.

What if a caller needs to talk to me?

She can transfer the call to your cell or an employee, telling you who's calling and why before she connects. Or she takes a message and texts it to you right away, marked urgent if it is.

What if I go over my minutes?

Hallie keeps answering. We text you at 80% of your plan, and extra minutes are 50¢ each. Custom plans are available for very busy phones.

How does the free week work?

Book a free call, and we set Hallie up for your business. Your card goes on file but nothing is charged for 7 days while you try her on real calls. Keep her and your first month (plus the one-time setup fee, unless you commit to 12 months) is charged on day 8. Not for you? Text us within the 7 days and you pay nothing.

Can I change things later?

Anytime. Two quick updates a month (hours, prices, a new service) are included; just text us. $25 each after that, and bigger changes are quoted upfront.

Do I have to give you any passwords?

Never. For your calendar, reviews or Facebook, you click "Connect" and sign in yourself on Google's or Microsoft's own screen, and you can disconnect any time.

What if Hallie gets something wrong?

AI can make mistakes, so she only says what you've approved, we test every setup on real calls before go-live, and you get a text summary of every call so nothing slips by. See our terms.
