Questions from cleaning company owners.
Will the receptionist sound like a robot to my customers?
No. Your AI receptionist speaks in a natural voice you choose, keeps answers short, and reacts the way a person would ("Oh no, let's get that sorted"). Callers are told once, in the greeting, that they're talking to an AI, and the receptionist never pretends to be a person.
Can the receptionist handle both residential and commercial cleaning leads?
Yes. Your AI receptionist asks whether the caller needs home cleaning, office cleaning, move-in/move-out, or deep cleaning, and captures the relevant details for each.
What happens with an emergency at 2am?
Your AI receptionist answers at 2am the same as 2pm. When a caller describes an emergency the receptionist gives them the safety step first, takes the address, and sends you a text, an app notification and an email straight away. The receptionist tells the caller you'll call them right back and never promises an arrival time, so you decide when you go.
Does the receptionist book recurring appointments?
AlwaysRespond books the initial appointment and captures the caller's preferred recurring schedule (weekly, biweekly, monthly). You confirm the recurring setup from your dashboard.
Can the receptionist ask about square footage and number of rooms?
Yes. You customize the intake questions. Your AI receptionist can ask about home size, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, pets, and any special cleaning requests.
Will AlwaysRespond work with my booking software?
AlwaysRespond works with Google Calendar and can send each call, booking and new lead to your booking or CRM software through Zapier or a webhook, if that software connects to Zapier.
What does AlwaysRespond cost next to a receptionist or an answering service?
