The calls you miss after 5 PM are the ones costing you jobs.
Your phone keeps ringing after you've put the tools down — evenings, weekends, and holidays. Voicemail loses those callers. After Hours answers them in your business's name, takes the message, and emails you a summary before you're back on the clock.
After Hours — The Night & Weekend Safety Net · $99/mo plus a one-time $99 setup · most are live in under 15 minutes of your time.
- Your receptionist, your way. You pick its name, a male or female voice, and the exact greeting callers hear.
- Keep your number and your carrier. You just forward your line to it — nothing on your trucks, cards, or Google listing changes.
- An email summary after every call. Who called, what they needed, and the callback number.

A full front desk, without the overhead
Every missed call is a missed customer. Your AI receptionist picks up instantly, sounds natural, and handles the routine work so you can stay on the job.
Answers the calls you'd miss
Picks up on the first ring — evenings, weekends, and holidays on After Hours, or around the clock from Answer up. Callers get a real answer instead of voicemail.
Your receptionist, your way
You choose its name, a male or female voice, and the exact greeting callers hear. We tune the tone to how your business actually talks — it isn't a stock persona with your name pasted on.
Talks like a person
Callers have a natural back-and-forth and get real answers — no robotic menus or 'press 1 for hours.'
Guards your day
“Are you hiring?” “What time do you close?” Sales pitches, robocalls, the same three questions all day. It handles them so you stay on the job — and you still see every one of them in your summary.
A summary after every call
Who called, what they needed, and the best number to reach them — emailed to you on every plan, and texted as well once you're on Front Desk.
Books appointments
On Front Desk and up, it checks your availability and schedules customers straight into your calendar — no back-and-forth. After Hours and Answer take the message instead.

The receptionist that never surprises you on the bill
Surprise charges are the number-one complaint about answering services. That isn't how we work — here's exactly what you do and don't pay for.
- We bill connected talk time only — never ring time or hold time.
- Overage is a flat $0.25/min on every standard plan — at or below the rest of the market.
- Time is rounded to the nearest 15 seconds, not 30.
- No charge for calls under 15 seconds — wrong numbers and hang-ups are free.
- No charge for spam and robocalls, or for our own test calls.
- No surprise upgrades: a 10% grace band plus alerts at 80% and 100% — we never move you to a pricier plan on our own.
- Surge protection: once a year we waive a month of overage when a storm or emergency spikes your call volume.
We build it
Tell us about your business and pick your receptionist's name, voice, and greeting. We build and test it for you — on After Hours that takes under 15 minutes of your time.
You forward your line
You keep your number and your carrier. You just set call forwarding to the line we give you — after hours, when you're busy, or all the time. We never port your number.
You get the summary
A tidy email lands after each call with who rang, what they needed, and the callback number. Front Desk adds a text as well.

Local help, built for how you actually work

We set everything up for you, tune it to sound like your business, and keep it working — so the phone is one less thing on your plate.
