How it works

From your first email to a live voice agent.

Most of the work is deciding how you want calls handled. The technical side is short, and we do it with you rather than handing you a manual.

  • Keep your existing number
  • You approve the script before it goes live
  • Transcripts from the first call
  • Change the answers whenever you like

The three steps

What actually happens, in order.

01

Connect your line

Forward your existing business number to AutoVoice, or take a new local number from us. Forwarding is a setting with your current phone provider and usually takes a few minutes. Your published number stays the same, so nothing on your website, van or business cards needs reprinting.

02

Train the agent

You send us your opening hours, prices, services, the questions you get asked constantly, and what you want to happen at the end of a call. We turn that into the agent's script and choose a voice. You hear it and approve it before a single real caller reaches it.

03

Go live

We switch the forwarding on. The agent starts answering. You get transcripts from the first call, so you can see exactly how it handled things and tell us what to change.

After you go live

It is not set and forget, and it should not be.

The first fortnight is where a voice agent earns its keep or does not. Read the transcripts.

Read the transcripts

Especially early on. You will spot questions you never thought to script, and callers phrasing things in ways you did not expect.

Tell us what to change

Answers, tone, what triggers a handover to a person. Changes are made for you; you are not left editing configuration.

Watch the handover rate

How often the agent passes a call to a human tells you whether the script is covering real calls. A high rate is a signal, not a failure.

If you are also buying a firewall

The firewall side runs separately.

The two services do not depend on each other. A firewall order goes through selection, written quote, supply and configuration on its own timeline, driven by SonicWall stock and your cutover window rather than by anything on the voice side.
