For Synagogues
Incoming Call...
Community Member
"Hi, I'd like to schedule a meeting with the Rabbi. Is Friday afternoon available?"
AI Receptionist
"Yes! Rabbi Cohen has availability Friday at 3 PM. Would you like me to book that time for you?"
✓ Meeting Scheduled • Friday 3 PM
Families call after hours searching for a spiritual home, visitors need directions before Shabbat, and your small staff can't answer every inquiry. Your community deserves better.
A family searching for a Jewish community calls Sunday evening, gets voicemail, and never hears back. By Monday morning, they've already visited another synagogue and scheduled a membership meeting there.
While preparing for services, calls flood in: service times, event RSVPs, Hebrew school questions, facility rental inquiries. Your small office team can't keep up, and important calls go unanswered during your busiest moments.
A prospective family schedules a Friday night service visit. You prepare welcoming materials and save seats. They don't show. You send one follow-up email that gets ignored. That's it—another family lost, another chance to grow your community gone.
