Every question we get asked.

A traditional call center costs $285–$800/mo and is only staffed during business hours. Answr starts free with 50 minutes every month, works 24/7, integrates with your calendar, and sounds like your receptionist, not someone reading a script.

Answr is trained on your services, pricing, FAQ, and hours during a 10-minute onboarding. For anything outside that, it politely offers to take a message and flags the call for your review in the dashboard.

Yes. Each industry template ships with urgency triggers; e.g. plumbing 'burst pipe' keywords escalate to an owner transfer or priority slot. You can add your own triggers in the flow builder.

Answr never pretends to be human. If asked directly, it says 'I'm the business's automated assistant: I can book you in and a real person can follow up if needed.' Full disclosure keeps you on the right side of TCPA.

About 10 minutes. Pick your industry, confirm services + pricing + hours, connect your calendar, forward your business line. Every step is skippable if you want to tweak it later.

You pick from a curated set of realistic voices during onboarding. In v1.5 you'll be able to clone your own voice so every call sounds like you.

Not at MVP; custom voice cloning ships in v1.5. Until then, the preset library has voices that consistently pass for human in our blind tests.

Calls run over cellular-grade telephony; your internet isn't in the path. In the rare case of an upstream outage, Answr automatically falls back to a voicemail that captures the caller's number for you.

Your dashboard shows the full transcript and a summary. If something looks off, you cancel or reschedule from the dashboard and follow up with the caller yourself.

Not yet. Spanish-language call handling is on the v2 roadmap (Months 6–12). If you need it sooner, email sales@tryanswr.com and we'll prioritize.

All four, at MVP. Connect one during onboarding. Appointments land in the calendar within 5 seconds of being confirmed on the call.

No. Monthly plans cancel anytime. Annual plans save you two months; the only commitment is that you prepay the year.

Only time spent in active conversation. No charges for unanswered rings, busy signals, or connect setup. Minutes are rounded up to the nearest second, so a 4-second call costs you 4 seconds.

On Free, calls forward to your phone. On Pro and Ultra, calls never stop. We email you at 80% and 100%, and extra minutes meter at $0.32/min. Upgrade anytime for a larger included bucket.

Every call opens with a recording disclosure: 'This call may be recorded for quality purposes.' That satisfies the 11 two-party-consent states; no per-state logic needed. Recordings are encrypted at rest and deleted per your plan's retention policy.
