Missed Call Recovery

Fallback Front Desk

When your team is busy, closed, or can't answer, the fallback AI picks up and has a real conversation. If the caller hangs up before that happens, a text goes out automatically to re-engage them. Either way, your team gets a clean summary, ready to follow up before the lead goes cold.

The problem

A missed call is a lead you already paid for.

Most callers who reach voicemail won't call back. Local service businesses lose more work to slow responses than to bad reviews. The customer was ready to hire. You were just busy.

Fallback Front Desk closes that gap.
How it works

Three components. One safety net.

It's not a robot employee. It's backup coverage, a system that handles the moments your team can't.

1
Fallback AI Phone Agent

Only answers when your team can't

The AI activates when the office is closed, your team misses a call, the line is busy, or the caller hits overflow. It greets the caller and has a real conversation, capturing the reason for calling, name, number, and urgency, without making booking promises or quoting prices.

Not a replacement. A safety net.

Missed-Call Text Response

Backup for when a caller hangs up early

If a caller hangs up on the AI before a real conversation happens, a text goes out fast: "Hi, this is [Business]. Sorry we missed your call. What can we help with?" The AI then qualifies the lead by text and routes it to the right person on your team.

A second chance to catch the ones who bail early.

Lead Routing & Summaries

Every interaction becomes a clean record

Every call or text creates a contact, a lead record, and a summary, tagged by urgency and routed to your team automatically. Your team sees exactly what happened and what to do next.

Nothing falls through the cracks.
