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.
Ticket, agenda and sponsor questions on WhatsApp answered through the pre-event rush, with serious buyers passed to your team.
In the weeks before an event, WhatsApp fills with questions about tickets, agendas, group rates and sponsorship, just as your team is busiest. WhatsApp AI Sales Agent for Events answers attendees from your published program, sends registration links for the right ticket and qualifies sponsor and exhibitor enquiries for your partnerships team, with every conversation logged.

WhatsApp AI Sales Agent for Events handles the message surge before and during an event. It helps attendees choose a ticket and register on your event platform, answers agenda questions from the published program, qualifies sponsor and exhibitor enquiries for your partnerships team, and follows up after the event with approved templates.
Ticket sales peak exactly when your team has the least time, and unanswered questions turn into abandoned registrations. Sponsor enquiries sit in the same inbox and get slow replies. This edition handles the surge on WhatsApp, guides attendees to the right ticket, answers agenda questions from your published program and passes qualified sponsors to partnerships with the details collected. Because the build is yours, it can be refreshed for the next event. The Scope Card fixes the number, the flows, the templates, the connected systems and the test conversations before you buy.
The agent handles the WhatsApp surge so your team is not glued to their phones. Attendees get answers while staff focus on running the event.
The agent helps attendees choose a ticket and register on your event platform. It explains the options in plain words, using only the ticket details you provide.
Agenda questions are answered from your published program. When the program changes, you update the source and the answers follow. Attendees stop asking staff where to be and when, and anything unusual is passed to your team.
The agent qualifies sponsor and exhibitor enquiries and passes them to your partnerships team. Each lead arrives with the details gathered in the chat. Partnerships can follow up while interest is warm.

These are things to track, not promised results. Outcomes depend on your data, your team and your market.
The build is paid once. Running costs are paid from your own accounts: Meta's WhatsApp conversation fees and roughly $30 to $150 a month for AI usage and hosting, highest in the run-up to an event. Your event platform and CRM fees do not change.
Testing usage is billed to the organizer's accounts as well.
Ask about running costsSeveral events on separate numbers, a third connected system, more than five flows or replies in a second language sits outside this Scope Card. Ask in a checkout note and a written Change Quote follows.
Request a custom versionOnce the 30 days of support end, optional monthly maintenance covers monitoring, fixes, model and WhatsApp updates and a monthly health report. Change hours handle small jobs, such as loading the next event's tickets and agenda or new sponsor packages. Larger work gets a Change Quote. Cancel 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 | An event chatbot add-on is billed per event or per attendee | Temporary event staff are hired for each peak | Ours is one fixed price, shown on this page before you buy |
| Sponsor enquiries | A generic bot treats sponsors like attendees | Depends on who reads the inbox | Ours qualifies sponsors and exhibitors and routes them to partnerships |
| Agenda accuracy | Answers depend on what was typed into the tool | Staff rely on the latest printout | Ours answers from the program you publish |
| Delivery | Set up quickly, then configure per event | Hiring and briefing take weeks | Ours has a fixed delivery time shown before you buy, with faster options |
It guides attendees to the right ticket type and sends the registration link for your event platform, such as Eventbrite or Cvent, where they complete the purchase. Registration stays in the system you already use. Ticket prices and types come only from what you supply.
It asks your qualifying questions, such as goals and budget range, explains the packages you have published, then hands the enquiry to your partnerships team with the conversation logged in your CRM. It does not negotiate or quote custom deals. For full proposals, see AI Proposal System for Events.
Yes, once you update the published program it draws from. Agenda questions are answered only from the documents you supply, so an updated session time or room appears in the next answer. Updating those documents during an event fits inside the monthly change hours of maintenance if you would rather we did it.
Each delivery speed has a fixed price and timeline, shown together in the price and delivery panel on this page, so you can pick one that goes live well before ticket sales peak. Every option includes one WhatsApp number, two connected systems, five flows, five templates, forty test conversations, two rounds of changes and thirty days of support.
Yes. The build is yours, so loading the next event's tickets, agenda and packages is a content update rather than a new project. Monthly maintenance includes change hours that can go toward that kind of refresh. Separate numbers for simultaneous events need a Change Quote.
Meta's WhatsApp conversation fees and roughly $30 to $150 a month for AI usage and hosting, paid from your own accounts. Usage peaks before and during an event and drops between them. We charge nothing per attendee, and monthly maintenance is optional.
