How is this different from a traditional answering service?

Traditional services bill per minute or per call and use scripted operators who can only take a message. Frontdesk is flat-rate, knows your business, and acts: it qualifies callers, books appointments, and updates your CRM in real time.

Will callers know it is AI?

Frontdesk uses a natural conversational voice tuned to your tone. Callers reach a helpful, knowledgeable assistant that answers questions and gets things done, not a rigid phone tree or a confused operator.

Can it handle overflow and after-hours only?

Yes. Use Frontdesk as your full answering service or only for overflow, nights, weekends, and holidays. Forward your line whenever you want it to pick up. It is the same flat price either way.

How fast can I set it up?

About 30 minutes. Forward or port your number for free, tell Frontdesk about your business, connect your calendar and CRM, and it starts answering the same day.
