The AI receptionist that answers every call, books the appointment, and texts back.
An AI receptionist is software that answers your business phone line in a natural-sounding voice, 24/7. It greets callers, answers common questions, books and reschedules appointments directly on your calendar, transfers urgent calls to your team, and follows up by text — so no call goes to voicemail and no customer is left on hold.

AI receptionist questions, answered
What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist is software that answers your business phone in a natural-sounding voice, 24/7. It greets callers, answers questions, books and reschedules appointments on your calendar, transfers urgent calls to your team, and follows up by text — so no call goes to voicemail and no customer is left on hold.
How much does an AI receptionist cost?
Ansio is a flat monthly subscription — a fraction of the cost of a part-time receptionist or a traditional answering service, with no per-minute charges. See current plans on our pricing page.
Can an AI receptionist book appointments?
Yes. Ansio checks your live calendar (Google, Outlook, or Square) and books, reschedules, or cancels appointments during the call, then texts the caller a confirmation.
Does it work after hours and on weekends?
Yes. Ansio answers every call 24/7 — nights, weekends, and holidays — so after-hours callers reach a real, helpful voice instead of voicemail.
Will callers know they are talking to AI?
Ansio introduces itself honestly and sounds natural. In practice, most callers simply get their question answered or their appointment booked without friction.
What happens if Ansio cannot handle a call?
It transfers the caller to the right person on your team, or takes a detailed message and texts it to you immediately, so nothing slips through.
How long does setup take?
Most businesses are live the same day. You forward your existing number — there is no new hardware and no contract.
