What is an AI receptionist?

An AI receptionist is an AI agent that answers your business phone, website chat and messages like a trained front-desk employee. It answers questions from your own information, books appointments, takes messages, qualifies callers and passes anything it cannot handle to a person. Unlike a traditional answering service, it works 24/7 at a fixed monthly price.

Without an agent

  • Calls go to voicemail after hours
  • Callers hang up and try a competitor
  • Staff stop their work to answer the same questions
  • Messages get lost between shifts

With Dapto

  • Every call and message answered, 24/7
  • Appointments booked straight into your calendar
  • Callers qualified and logged for your team
  • Anything urgent handed to the right person

FAQ

How is an AI receptionist different from an answering service?

An answering service takes messages. An AI receptionist answers the question, books the appointment and qualifies the caller on the spot, from your own information, 24/7, at a fixed monthly price instead of per-minute fees.

Can an AI receptionist book appointments?

Yes. It offers open times from your calendar and books the appointment during the call or chat, then sends the details to your team.

What happens when a caller needs a real person?

You set the rules. When a conversation needs judgment, or the caller asks for a person, it is handed to your team with a summary so nobody has to start over.

Does it work after hours and on weekends?

Yes. It answers every call, chat and message 24/7, so after-hours inquiries are handled instead of going to voicemail.

How much does an AI receptionist cost?

Self-serve plans start at $39 a month for website chat. Phone and WhatsApp answering are included from the Business plan at $249 a month. Every plan starts with a 7-day free trial.
