A voice agent that picks up on the first ring, answers questions, qualifies the caller, and books the appointment — 24/7. An estimated 62% of calls to small businesses go unanswered. An AI Receptionist fixes that — and you can deploy a working one in about 60 seconds, grounded in your own business.
What an AI Receptionist does
- Answers inbound calls on the first ring, day or night, in a natural voice.
- Understands why the caller is calling and whether it's a job you handle.
- Captures the caller's name and best callback number early in the call.
- Checks your real calendar and books the appointment, then texts a confirmation.
- Gives an honest price range for 'how much' questions — never a made-up number.
- Takes a detailed message and escalates anything that genuinely needs a human.

Where it works
Frequently asked questions
How does an AI receptionist answer my calls?
It connects to your business phone line and answers in a natural voice. It greets the caller, finds out what they need, and either books them into your calendar or takes a message — using only the facts you've given it about your hours, services, and service area.
Will it book appointments straight into my calendar?
Yes. It checks your real availability, offers the soonest open slots, confirms the details back to the caller, and books the appointment — then texts a confirmation. It never invents a time slot.
What happens if the AI can't handle a call?
It takes a message with the caller's name, number, and reason, or transfers to a human. It's built to escalate rather than guess, so it never over-promises or makes up an answer.
Can it answer calls after hours?
Yes — it answers 24/7, so the calls that used to go to voicemail at night and on weekends get captured, qualified, and booked instead.
How does it actually work?
Paste your website URL. We build you a real hosted workspace with this agent already running — grounded in your actual services, hours, and pricing, pulled from your site. It's live in about 60 seconds, and you can talk to it right away.
What do I need to get started?
A SeldonFrame account and your own AI key — if you already use ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini, you have one. For phone calls or texts you'll add a number. That's it: no code, no setup project, no integration work.
How much does it cost?
$29/mo flat, with unlimited workspaces and a 14-day free trial — no card to start. Your AI key is billed by the provider directly at cost (usually pennies a day); we never mark it up or add a usage tax on top.
How much can it save me?
One recovered review, one booked job, or one caught missed call usually pays for the whole month many times over. It works 24/7 for pennies a day — a fraction of what an employee or an agency retainer costs to do the same job, without the gaps.
Why SeldonFrame instead of hiring someone or building it myself?
It's live in about 60 seconds instead of the weeks a hire or a DIY build takes, and it's grounded in YOUR business through the Soul — your real services, hours, and pricing — so it never sounds generic or makes things up. And you own it: it's your workspace, your data, your agent.
Is it really live in 60 seconds?
Yes. Paste a URL and watch it build — workspace, site, booking, and this agent, grounded in your business, ready in about a minute. No demo call, no onboarding queue.
