Aussie business owners — from law firms to vets to tradies — on what changed when they had an AI receptionist and could focus on what matters

★★★★★
"I've been using it for 1.5 years. Setup was so quick. Highly recommend for any busy business."
Joe Nassar
★★★★★
"John helped us through the whole process and we're really impressed with how natural and conversational our AI was when answering our calls. Highly recommend."
Michael Oates · Local Guide
★★★★★
"I'm a mobile vet with no staff and people only called when I was with a patient. I was genuinely shocked at how real it sounded — I even made a staff profile for her. Went from missing calls constantly to getting detailed transcripts I can actually follow up on."
Stuart Cunningham · Mobile Vet

Get lots of repetitive calls with similar questions
Want pricing, quote, or booking links sent to callers during the call
Probably not a good fit if you…

More about us

About AI Answering Service

We're a Sydney-based business. We've offered Aussie phone services since 2001, and AI Answering since 2023. We like talking to our customers — if you want to chat, call Emma on 02 9000 1625 and ask for a human.

Industries we help most

Time-poor Australian small businesses with inbound call pain — including trades, vets, law firms, cafés, property managers, recruiters, dentists, cleaners, and marketing agencies.

AI receptionist vs virtual receptionist vs IVR

Emma is a done-for-you AI receptionist: natural Aussie voice, captures details, emails you everything. She is not a human answering service and not a press-1 IVR menu. Best when you want missed-call coverage without learning software.

Questions, answered

Will callers know they're speaking with AI?+

Yes — we're upfront. Emma introduces herself appropriately; we're not trying to trick anyone. Call 02 9000 1625 to hear how it sounds.

Why do you need my card?+

So the trial can continue automatically if you keep the service. You won't be charged until after day 14 if you don't cancel.

What happens if Emma can't answer a question?+

Emma won't make things up. If she doesn't know the answer or can't help with what the caller needs, she takes a clear message so your team can follow up — and you still get the full transcript and recording.

How do I update what Emma says after we're live — and how fast?+

Email us what changed — how Emma should respond, hours, services, FAQs. We update Emma for you; no dashboard. Most tweaks are within an hour or two, and we're especially responsive during your early testing.

Do I need a new number? How does forwarding work?+

No — you keep your existing number. Forward unanswered calls from your mobile or landline to the dedicated number we give you, and Emma answers. You stay in control of when forwarding is on.

Is there a setup fee?+

No setup fee — we train Emma for you as part of the service. We learn your business by email (or phone if you prefer). No control panel to learn.

How is the greeting set, and can it be changed?+

We write your greeting with you during setup — how Emma introduces herself and your business. We usually disclose that Emma is an AI receptionist (unless you prefer different wording). Change it anytime by email; we update it for you.

How do I cancel?+

Any time via Stripe or email us. No lock-in contract. Contact the team if you need help.

Stop missing calls today.
