The AI phone receptionist for businesses in Siena
Inside the walls most people work alone, and the phone rings at the worst moment. The assistant picks it up for you, day and night.
In Siena the work sits inside the walls: workshops, studios and salons on streets you reach on foot. A caller wants to know whether there is a slot today, and if nobody picks up he tries the next number. Around the Palio and through the high season plenty of calls come from out of town. The assistant hears the language, sets the appointment and writes it to your WhatsApp.
Why businesses in Siena choose Rispondly
Foreign visitors
Many requests come from people who are in town for a few days. The assistant recognises the language, carries on in it and sums the booking up for you in Italian.
Palio days
On 2 July and 16 August the city is thinking about something else. The phone keeps ringing, and every request still reaches you in order, without you stopping.
Your 0577 stays yours
No new number and no new operator: you set a forward with a carrier code, and calls you do not answer go to the assistant.
When you work alone
You no longer choose between the client in front of you and the one on the phone. The second call gets answered anyway.
