AI receptionist answers every missed call
3CX gives startup a self-hosted or hosted PBX. Frontdesk adds an AI receptionist that picks up the calls nobody catches, books appointments, and texts you a summary.
No servers, no SIP trunk wrangling
3CX often means provisioning a PBX, SIP trunks, and desk phones yourself. Frontdesk is fully managed cloud with nothing to host or maintain.
Calls, texts, and email in one inbox
Customers reach you on any channel and you see a single timeline per contact instead of a PBX console and separate tools.
Native CRM sync
Every call, text, and voicemail logs to the contact in HubSpot, Salesforce, or Pipedrive automatically, without configuring a connector.
Lead qualification on the call
The AI asks the questions your team would, scores the lead, and routes hot ones to a human while logging the rest.
Live the same day
Port your existing number or pick a new one, train Frontdesk on your business, and start answering calls in under 30 minutes.
