AI Voice Receptionists: frequently asked questions
Will callers know they are talking to an AI?
Nerhy AI receptionists sound natural and conversational. We recommend a short disclosure in the greeting, and the agent can transfer to a person at any time.
Can I keep my existing business phone number?
Yes. Calls can be forwarded from your current number to the AI receptionist, for all calls, after hours only, or only when your team does not pick up.
What happens with an urgent call?
You define what counts as urgent. The AI receptionist transfers those calls live to your team or sends an instant notification with the caller's details.
