An AI receptionist that answers every call, 24/7

Sidekick Pro answers your business line on its own dedicated phone number — greeting callers, screening spam, answering FAQs, booking appointments, and texting follow-ups. You only hear about the calls that really need you.

Everything a great receptionist does, without the front desk

📞

Answers calls and texts 24/7

Your dedicated number picks up every call with a custom greeting and ultra-natural, low-latency voice. After hours, weekends, holidays — the line is always covered.

🛡️

Screens callers and blocks spam

Robocalls and time-wasters never reach you. Real callers get helped immediately, and the receptionist pings you only when something genuinely needs your attention.

📅

Books appointments on your calendar

Connected to Google Calendar, the receptionist finds an open slot, books it, sends the invite, and texts the caller a confirmation — all inside the same conversation.

💬

Handles your FAQ from plain English

Tell it your hours, prices, service area, and policies in plain English. It answers caller questions exactly the way you would — and takes a message when it shouldn't.

📝

Sends you a summary of every call

Every conversation ends with a clean summary: who called, what they needed, what was promised, and what happens next. Nothing slips through.

🧠

Remembers every caller

Backed by persistent memory, the receptionist recognizes repeat callers, recalls past conversations, and picks up right where the last call left off.

AI receptionist FAQ

What is an AI receptionist?

An AI receptionist is a virtual assistant that answers your business phone line. Sidekick Pro gives you a dedicated phone number where it answers calls and texts 24/7, greets callers, handles common questions, takes messages, and books appointments — without you lifting a finger.

How does the Sidekick Pro AI receptionist answer calls?

Your workspace gets its own phone number with ultra-low-latency voice. In Receptionist Mode the assistant answers every call with your custom greeting, works from plain-English instructions you give it, and speaks naturally with callers in real time.

Can the AI receptionist book appointments?

Yes. The receptionist connects to your Google Calendar, finds open slots, books the appointment, and sends the invite — then texts the caller a confirmation from the same number.

What happens when a call actually needs me?

The receptionist screens callers and escalates intelligently. Routine questions are handled on the spot; anything important triggers an alert to you with context, and you get a clean summary of every call either way.

Does the AI receptionist handle text messages too?

Yes. The same number sends and receives SMS, so a conversation can start on a call and continue over text — follow-ups, confirmations, and reminders included.

How much does an AI receptionist cost?

The AI receptionist is included in the Business and Ultra plans — Business is $29 per month with monthly model usage included. That is a fraction of the cost of an answering service or a human receptionist.
