Call answering built around your business

Ellie is configured around the information and workflows your business provides: services, opening hours, staff, booking rules and escalation requirements. If Ellie has not been given an answer, it is designed to take a message rather than invent one.

What an AI call answering service can handle

Answer 24/7

Cover calls during busy periods, after hours, weekends and public holidays without sending every caller to voicemail.

Handle enquiries

Answer approved questions about services, hours and other business information supplied during setup.

Capture and qualify

Ask the questions your team needs and capture useful details for follow-up.

Book appointments

Where a supported calendar is configured, Ellie can check availability and create a booking during the call.

AI answering service vs voicemail and message-taking

Voicemail records a message after the caller has already reached a dead end. A traditional answering service can take a message for your team. Ellie is designed to handle more of the front-desk workflow during the conversation, while staying within the business rules and integrations you configure.

Who Ellie is built for

Ellie is aimed at enquiry- and appointment-driven Australian businesses where staff cannot always stop what they are doing to answer the phone.

Trades and home services — capture job enquiries while the team is on site.
Medical and dental clinics — handle routine patient calls and supported appointment workflows.
Beauty and wellness — handle service and booking enquiries while staff are with clients.
