Answer Systems is a phone agent for local businesses that answers every call, holds a natural conversation with your callers, qualifies them as leads and passes the important ones to you or your team. You get the effect of a top level receptionist without hiring, training or managing staff. When callers need a human touch or the situation is too complex, our human call center seamlessly takes over to ensure every call is handled professionally. It’s advanced call-handling technology with human backup when it matters most.

We connect our system to your existing business number using call forwarding. When someone calls, the call is routed through Answer Systems, handled according to your rules and then either completed by the system or passed to you, your staff or our human team when needed.

Most businesses are live within 2-5 days after a short setup call. We use that time to understand your services, build the conversation flows and connect everything so calls start working smoothly from day one.

The system can greet callers, answer common questions, qualify new leads, collect contact details, send you summaries and help callers take the next step such as booking a call or visit. When a situation is too sensitive or complex, we route it to a human according to your preferences.

If a call needs a human touch, the system passes the call to our human call center or directly to you, based on the rules we set together. Our human team is available 4am-8pm PST. Outside those hours, callers can leave a message or have their details captured and sent to you.

After each qualified call, you can receive a summary by text message, email or both. We can also route the caller directly to the right person on your team so there is a smooth handoff and no lead is left hanging.

We work with local service businesses such as spas, auto detailers, barbers, home repair and construction services, cleaning companies, roofers and many others. If you rely on phone calls from customers in a local area, Answer Systems can help you capture and handle more of those calls.

No long term contracts. You pay a simple monthly fee and can cancel anytime if you feel the service is not delivering enough value for your business.

Your monthly fee includes a dedicated success manager, setup and script creation, the AI phone agent, human call center backup, lead capture and routing, connection to your existing number and ongoing monitoring and tuning. The goal is to give you a complete call handling system that keeps getting better over time.

We need your basic business details, service area, opening hours, preferred way to receive leads and any important rules about which calls should go where. Once you fill out the form on the site, we will schedule a short call to finalize everything and then flip the switch so Answer Systems can start handling your calls.
