A real business line, on every device.
Get a US business phone number that rings on your phones during business hours and goes to voicemail (with transcription) after. SMS, voicemail-to-email, team inbox, all included.
Communications, plainly.
Your business number should not be your personal cell. Mixing the two means customer calls at midnight, missed calls because the personal phone is silenced, no way to share with a teammate, and no record of conversations. A real business line solves all of this.
Our communications system gives you a US business number (toll-free or local) that you can route however you want: ring on your cell during business hours, ring on a teammate after hours, go straight to voicemail outside US business hours, send SMS responses from a shared team inbox. Every call and text is logged.
You can have multiple lines (one per department), multiple users, voicemail transcription, call forwarding, business-hours rules, and SMS auto-replies. Calls can be recorded (with consent) for training. Numbers can be ported in from existing providers (Google Voice, Grasshopper, RingCentral).

“Clients used to text my cell at 9 pm. Now they text the business line, which auto-replies after hours and I answer in the morning. My evenings came back.”
