AI After-Hours Answering Service — Never Miss a Call Again

40% of business calls come outside normal business hours — evenings, weekends, and holidays. Traditional answering services charge $1-$2 per call and provide scripted responses. An AI answering service costs a flat monthly fee and handles calls with the intelligence of your best receptionist.

Why After-Hours Answering Needs This

ConvoCore's after-hours AI answering service doesn't just take messages — it actively handles calls. It books appointments, qualifies leads, answers common questions from your knowledge base, and routes true emergencies to your on-call staff. Callers get helpful service instead of 'Leave a message and we'll call you back tomorrow.'

The Problem

  • 40% of calls coming after hours and going to voicemail
  • Traditional answering services providing robotic, scripted responses
  • Per-call billing making answering services expensive at volume
  • No ability to book appointments or answer questions after hours
