Who picks up when you forward the phone.
AlwaysRespond is an AI receptionist for service businesses, operated by Gradiex Consulting LLC.
1 month free, $0 today. No contracts, cancel anytime.
One system, not a phone service.
Answering services take a message and hand the work back. AlwaysRespond answers the call, books the job on your calendar, assigns the technician, texts the customer, sends the invoice, and matches the payment when it lands.
You forward your existing number to it. Your customers dial what they have always dialled.
The companies that carry your calls.
You are handing us the number your work arrives on. You should know who is underneath it.
The things most sites leave out.
A company that tells you what it is not is the only kind whose other claims are worth anything.
We are not SOC 2 certified.
Not as a company. Our infrastructure providers hold their own SOC 2 Type II certifications, which is a different thing and we will not blur the two. We can share their reports for procurement. We do not currently offer a BAA. If you handle patient information, email us before signing up and we will tell you straight whether we are a fit yet.
We are a small team.
Not a call center and not a hundred people. That is why setup is a wizard rather than an onboarding project, and why you can reach someone who can actually change something.
It is an AI, and it says so.
The receptionist discloses that it is an AI once, up front, on every call. Several states require it. We would do it anyway, because a caller who works it out later trusts you less than one who was told.
Nothing locks you in.
Month to month, first month free, cancel whenever. You keep your own number the entire time, because it is forwarded to us rather than moved.
There is a phone number on this page for a reason.
The fastest way to judge this is to hear it. The live demo answers as a sample plumbing company, and it takes about a minute.
AlwaysRespond is operated by Gradiex Consulting LLC. Building since February 2026.
Start today, pay next month.
Forward one number and hear what your callers hear. Keep it or cancel.
