AI receptionist for small business: calls, bookings and handoffs
What an AI receptionist does on a real call, the rules that apply, a sample greeting and a pass/fail checklist to launch one safely.
A recurring report on call volume, duration and outcomes, so patterns show up before they become a problem.
You know how many calls come in, but not why customers call or where opportunities slip away. AI Call Analytics reads your call data and builds a recurring report on volume, outcomes and the reasons behind them, with alerts when a trend crosses a line you set. You choose the metrics, and the numbers are checked against your history.

AI Call Analytics is an AI agent that reads your call data and builds a recurring report on volume, duration, outcomes and the reasons customers are calling, with alerts when a trend crosses a line you set. It reports on patterns, not on any single call.
Call data usually sits unused in a phone system while managers make staffing and product decisions on instinct. Missed opportunities, repeat complaints and rising volume on one topic stay invisible until they become expensive. This agent turns your calls into a regular report on the patterns you care about, and alerts you when something moves. You can fix the cause instead of answering the same calls forever. The Scope Card fixes the metrics, the data sources, the delivery channel and the checks against three months of your history before you buy.
AI Call Analytics reads your call data and groups calls by reason. The recurring report shows which reasons are growing, so you can fix causes rather than answer symptoms.
Volume, duration and outcomes are built into one recurring report or dashboard. It arrives through email, Slack or the web, without anyone exporting spreadsheets. The figures update on the schedule you choose.
Up to five alerts warn you when a trend crosses a line you set, such as a jump in one call reason. You hear about it while there is time to respond.
Patterns in volume and duration across days and hours show when demand peaks. The report covers trends, not single calls, so the picture stays clear.
Your portal lists these the moment you order. Delivery starts the working day after everything is in and your access is checked.
| Option | Delivery time | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 20–30 working days | $4,900 |
| Express | 15–25 working days | $5,750 |
| Rush | 10–20 working days | $6,600 |
Before you start: List the call reports you produce today and how long they take. Note what you believe the top call reasons are, so the first report can test it.
These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.
The build price is one-time. Running it costs roughly $20 to $150 a month in your own accounts, covering AI model usage and the hosting or scheduler that refreshes the report.
AI usage during the build and testing is also billed to your accounts, so every provider relationship stays yours. Nothing runs through us.
Ask about running costsIf you need something outside the Scope Card, add a note at checkout. You get a written Change Quote, and that work only starts once you accept it. Larger or bespoke projects go through the Custom AI request form instead.
Request a custom versionWe recommend monthly maintenance, which covers monitoring, fixes and a monthly allowance of change hours, for things such as a new metric or an extra alert. It starts after the 30 days of included support and can be cancelled any month.
$249/mo (the minimum fee, includes 2 change hours)
Optional. Starts after the post-launch support period. Cancel any month.
How maintenance works| Do it yourself with a SaaS tool | Hire a custom agency | Upmark Labs | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Price | A call-analytics platform charges by seat or by call volume | A custom build gets quoted after discovery calls | Ours is one fixed price, shown on this page before you buy |
| Scope | A call-analytics platform ships a fixed set of dashboards | An agency agrees scope during the project | Ours tracks the metrics you actually chose |
| Setup time | A call-analytics platform needs weeks of dashboard configuration | An agency project usually runs several weeks, set per project | Ours has a fixed delivery time shown before you buy, with faster options |
| Alerts | A call-analytics platform often limits alerts to a paid tier | An agency build depends on what was agreed | Ours includes up to five alerts in the base price |
| What it reports on | A call-analytics platform rarely separates trends from per-call grading | An agency build depends on what was agreed | Ours reports on patterns only; scoring is a separate build |
The fixed build price for each delivery speed is shown in the price and delivery panel on this page, and it covers everything on the Scope Card. That includes setting up your metrics, testing the report against three months of your own call history, two rounds of changes and thirty days of support after launch.
Up to 25 metrics or recurring questions, defined by you during intake, such as call volume by day, average handle time, missed-call rate or the most common reasons people call. We test the tagging against three months of your real call history before launch, so the numbers match what your team would count by hand.
Running costs sit at roughly $20 to $150 a month in your own accounts, covering AI model usage plus the hosting or scheduler that refreshes the report. You pay those providers directly, in your own name, so you keep full ownership of every account. We charge nothing per report generated.
AI Call Analytics reports on patterns across all your calls, such as volume and outcome trends. AI Call QA scores individual calls against a quality rubric. A sensible order is to run Analytics first to see where volume is heaviest, then add QA to check how well those particular calls are handled.
We need read-only access to your call data, at least three months of history to test trends against, and your own definitions of the metrics and alerts you want, up to twenty-five. Tell us where the report should go, such as email, Slack or a web dashboard. Access is shared by adding our team as a user or creating a key you control, never by email.
Yes, the report carries a short note that its numbers are compiled by an AI agent from your call data, so anyone reading it knows the source. You approve the wording during intake, and it can be changed later through monthly maintenance if your internal reporting standards change.
Yes, adding a metric or an alert within the existing 25-metric limit fits inside the monthly change hours that come with maintenance. Going past that limit, or adding a second dashboard, comes through the Additional Workflow add-on, quoted before the work starts.
