The problem

Every missed call is a booking that called someone else.

The phone rings while you're with a client, mid-treatment, or after hours — so it goes to voicemail, and most people don't leave one. They just call the next business down the list. A receptionist can't catch every call; Remi answers all of them, instantly, around the clock.

It answers, understands, and books — like a real receptionist.

No menus, no “press 1.” Remi just talks — and the caller can interrupt naturally, the way you would on a real call.

1
Ring · picks up instantly
"Thanks for calling Bright Smile Dental, this is Remi — how can I help you today?" — in the caller's language.
2
Understands the request
Caller: "Hi, do you have anything Thursday for a cleaning?" — Remi grasps the intent, not just keywords, and maps it to the right service.
3
Checks your live calendar
"We've got 10am or 2:30pm on Thursday for a cleaning — which suits you?"
4
Books it in real time
"Lovely, you're booked for 2:30pm Thursday. I'll text you a confirmation now." — written straight into your calendar.
Confirmed · follow-up sent
✅ Booking confirmed, WhatsApp confirmation + reminders scheduled — and if it was a new patient, the intake form goes out automatically.

Anything Remi can't safely handle (upset caller, clinical question) is escalated to a human, with a summary.

Not a phone tree. A receptionist that talks.

Understands intent

"Something for my sore back" → the right treatment. It works out what people mean, not just exact words.

Books, reschedules & cancels

Handles the whole appointment lifecycle live on the call — and offers freed slots to your waitlist.

Answers the repeat questions

Hours, pricing, location, parking, payment methods — instantly, the way your front desk would.

Natural, interruptible voice

A warm SA voice with real-time turn-taking — callers can cut in and it responds, just like a human.

Knows when to escalate

Sensitive, complex or clinical? Remi takes a message or hands off to a person, with a summary — never winging it.

Speaks their language

Answers calls in English & Afrikaans — and handles messages in all 11 official languages.

Nothing slips through

Even a missed call becomes a booking.

If a call ever goes unanswered or the caller hangs up, Remi fires off a WhatsApp within seconds — "Sorry we missed you! Can I help you book?" — and catches the booking before they try the next business.

Common questions

What is an AI receptionist?

It is software that answers your phone and holds a real conversation — not a phone tree with menu options. Remi listens, understands what the caller wants, checks your live diary, books or moves the appointment, answers the questions it has been given answers to, and passes on anything it should not handle itself.

Does it actually sound human?

Remi speaks with a natural South African voice in English and Afrikaans, and can be interrupted mid-sentence the way a person can. The honest test is your own ear — tap "Talk to Remi" on this page and have a live conversation with it before you decide.

Do I keep my existing phone number?

Yes. You forward the number you already advertise, so nothing changes for your callers, your website or your Google listing.

What happens if Remi cannot answer something?

It stops guessing and escalates — taking a message and alerting you, or handing the call over, depending on how you have set it up. It is better for a caller to be told a human will come back to them than to be given a confident wrong answer.

What does it cost?

R2,900/month on Remi · Standard, including 1,000 talk-minutes (about 38 minutes of live calls a day) and then R1.85/min — against roughly R8,000/month for the average full-time front-desk hire who is not there after five. There is a free 1-week trial.
