☎️ AI receptionist

AI receptionist: a voice agent that answers the phone in your line of work.

A plumber under a sink, a dentist with a patient in the chair, an estate agent on a viewing: nobody can pick up, and the call goes to the competitor down the road. Sayelo runs your switchboard 24/7, books appointments in your calendar, transfers emergencies and sends you the summary. Each line of work has its own page, with its calls, its rules and its vocabulary.

How it works

The same agent, tuned to each line of work.

The agent answers on every ring and introduces itself as an artificial intelligence. It understands the request, asks the questions that matter in your line of work, offers a real slot from your calendar or takes a message, and transfers the call when your instructions say so. After the call, you receive by email the summary, the key points, the actions taken and those still to do, with the full transcript. It recognises your regular customers, sends the right SMS during the conversation, and pushes every call to your business software by webhook.

  • Ready in 5 minutes, with setup guided by your agent, which reads your website
  • Transfers by reason for calling, with on-call time slots in your country's time zone
  • Google Calendar, Microsoft 365, Cal.com, Sellsy, monday.com, and your other tools via webhooks
  • Data hosted in France, recordings announced and opt-in
  • Time off and public holidays set in one sentence and, in France for now, your customers called from Sayelo with your agent's number

You keep your current number by forwarding it to your agent's number. Your agent also receives a number according to your country's rules: see Sayelo in your country.

Frequently asked questions

The AI receptionist, explained.

What is an AI receptionist?

A voice agent that answers your line the way a receptionist would: it picks up, introduces itself as an artificial intelligence, understands the request, books an appointment in your calendar or takes a message, transfers emergencies according to your instructions, then sends you a summary. It works 24/7, including when you're out on a job, in a consultation or in a meeting.

Does the agent really know my line of work?

It is set up for your business: vocabulary, questions to ask, emergency rules, services and opening hours. It reads your website when it is created, and you add to its knowledge in everyday language. The pages below detail, line of work by line of work, what it does and what it doesn't do.

How much does an AI receptionist cost?

From €39/month excl. VAT, with a 14-day free trial and no commitment. The price depends on the call volume, the agents and the numbers you need: see pricing.

Do I need to change my number?

No. You keep your current number, as you prefer: by forwarding it to your agent or, in France, by porting it, on all plans. A new number is also included from the start of the trial, if you would rather start from scratch. In every case, the agent answers on a registered operator line.

Do callers know they are talking to an AI?

Yes, always. The agent says so in its very first sentence, in line with the European regulation on artificial intelligence (the AI Act). It transfers to a human whenever your instructions say so, and never gives medical, legal or veterinary advice.

ready for your line of work.
