Let’s be real. When you’re flat out with work, it’s easy to miss a call—and that could mean a missed customer. Solo tradies, busy clinics, and growing teams all deal with the same challenge: staying on top of calls while getting everything else done.

That’s where AI phone answering comes in. A simple, smart way to keep your business responsive and professional exists, without adding more to your plate.

What Is AI Phone Answering?

AI phone answering service takes the pressure off by handling your business calls for you. No need for a full-time receptionist. Instead of going to voicemail, a virtual assistant that sounds just like a real person greets and helps your callers. Quick, reliable, and always on—even after hours.

With Sophiie, the experience gets even better. She’s designed to sound natural, stay on-brand, and get things done. Here’s what she can do on every call:
