Why How It Works Needs This

When someone calls your business number, the call forwards to ConvoCore's AI. The AI answers in a natural voice, greets the caller by your business name, and begins a conversation. It understands the caller's intent, asks relevant questions, and takes action — booking an appointment, answering a question, or transferring the call. The entire experience feels like talking to a knowledgeable receptionist.

The Problem

  • Skepticism about AI voice quality and conversational ability
  • Concerns about complex setup requiring technical skills
  • Worry about callers having a bad experience with automation
  • Uncertainty about how AI handles edge cases and unexpected questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do callers know they're talking to an AI?

The AI sounds very natural. Most callers can't tell the difference. You can optionally disclose that it's an AI assistant for transparency.

What if the AI can't handle a question?

The AI gracefully handles unknown questions by offering to transfer to a human, take a message, or suggest calling back during business hours.

How does it learn about my business?

You add your business information, FAQs, and services to a simple knowledge base. The AI uses this to answer questions accurately.
