Tell us about your business

Pick your industry and type your business name, city and phone. Your industry matters most, because it decides how Sophia answers and what she knows to ask.

Answer what callers ask

Hours, services, service area, your service call fee, whether you take new patients. Skip anything; Sophia says the team will confirm rather than guess. Change any answer later and she updates instantly.

Meet Sophia

Keep the name or pick another. Hear the voices in your language. Choose what she must collect from every caller. Press the microphone and ask her what your customers ask.

Pick your number, claim your website

Verify your phone by text, choose a local number by city or area code (free, yours to keep), turn on ring-me-first if you want it, then claim yourbusiness.1n1.ai. Your line is live.

Included with every account

A website, live the
minute you claim it.

Plenty of small businesses have no website, or one they would rather not show. Claim yourbusiness.1n1.ai in the setup and a clean page is live that minute, built from what you already told Sophia. You do not build it, host it or maintain it.

✓

Your number, hours, services and photos

Laid out for your industry. Add a logo, up to twelve photos and your menu or price sheet. Pick a colour and it updates live.

✓

Sophia answers on it

A call button on the page. Visitors talk to the same receptionist that answers your phone, and you get the same recap. Already have a site? One line of HTML puts her there too.

✓

Your own domain, free

Point a domain you already own at it. When you outgrow the page, a custom design is available on request and your free page stays live while we build.

Keep your number

Want to keep the number your customers already know?

You can. No moving it, no new number to hand out. Your phone rings the way it always has, and the calls you can't take go to Sophia.

Keep the number you have

She takes the ones you miss

Busy with a customer, already on a call, or your phone is off: the call goes to Sophia instead of voicemail. It uses the call forwarding your carrier already offers, and we switch it on with you.

Or give out your new number

You answer first

Your own phone rings first. If you don't pick up in 12 seconds, Sophia does. You take the calls you can, she takes the rest, and every call lands on one list.

Platform features

Everything the agent does,
so you don't.

Every plan includes everything below, and the trial does too.

📞

Your line never gets busy

A human takes one call at a time. The AI takes ten. Three people calling your shop at once all get answered.

🕐

Picks up 24/7

At two in the morning, during the lunch rush or on a public holiday, the call still gets answered.

🧠

A receptionist who already knows your trade

Twenty-three industries have a receptionist written for them, from plumbing to pet grooming. She asks what a good front desk asks, never invents a price, and flags a flood or a toothache as urgent. Every other business gets a general receptionist that still knows your hours, services and prices.

🛡️

Spam call protection

Flagged spam is screened at the network edge, and three tunable limits catch anything that slips past: a daily-call cap, a per-call max, and a silence timeout. See each one tested live.

Industries

She asks what a good front desk asks.

23 industries have a receptionist written for them. Here is one question from six of them.

Cleaning “How many bedrooms and bathrooms, roughly?” Sizes the job before anyone quotes it. Auto detailing “Are you mainly after the inside cleaned up, the outside, or both?” Then the vehicle, then the day. Plumbing “Is it active flooding, or something we can schedule?” Urgent calls get a callback within the hour. Dental “Any pain right now?” A yes is flagged urgent for your team. Salons and barbershops “Have you been in before?” Regulars are asked who they usually see. Restaurants “Anything to flag for the kitchen?” Every allergy is read back, a serious one twice.

Frequently asked questions

What do I get on the free trial?

You get everything for 7 days or 60 minutes, whichever comes first. Your receptionist, your local number and your website are live from the first day, and we do not ask for a card. When the trial ends, calls pause and your number is held for 7 days. Pick a plan and it all switches back on as you left it.

How much does the phone number cost?

The number you pick in the setup costs nothing, on the trial and on every plan (Canada and US), for as long as you stay. Extra numbers, and numbers in other countries, are bought in Studio and billed per number on top of your plan, in 14 countries:

$3 setup + $3 / month CAD: Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, United Kingdom, United States
$4 setup + $4 / month CAD: Australia, Austria, Italy, New Zealand

What happens if I go over my plan's minutes?

Calls pause at your cap until the next month starts, or move up a plan to keep going. There are no per-minute overage charges. Calls you answer yourself with ring-me-first count too, minute for minute.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Month-to-month, no annual contract. Cancel from your dashboard. There is no exit fee, and the partial month is not refunded.

The second door

Front Desk runs your phone.
Studio lets you build.

Every account has both. Front Desk is the receptionist, the number and the website, set up in ten minutes. Studio is the paid workspace for people who want to shape the agent brain themselves. Both are built and operated by Techalyst, a software company incorporated in British Columbia, Canada.

Studio, for builders

Shape every agent brain yourself.

Write every instruction, voice and rule. Run as many assistants as you need, one per site, per campaign, per team. Schedule recurring 1on1 calls that go out on their own and report back. Buy extra numbers in 14 countries. Studio opens from your Front Desk menu; pick a plan to create agents there.

Integrations and data bridges

Talk to the tools you already use.

Want Sophia to write into your POS, CRM or booking system, or read from your database safely? Mindbody, Square, Clover, Toast, Jane, Jobber, anything else you run. Techalyst builds the bridge as custom work, and only exposes what you allow.

Custom websites and apps

When you outgrow the free page, the same team builds the next one.

Every Front Desk account already has a website. When you need more, the same team designs a custom one, and builds web and mobile apps and bespoke business software. One accountable shop for the receptionist and everything around it.

Not sure what you need? Book a call with Techalyst and we will scope it together and give you a quote.
