Features

The hours nobody can
answer the phone, gone.

A voice agent that sounds remarkably human picks up, understands what the caller wants, and handles bookings, inquiries, and callbacks on the spot. After hours or at peak time, no call goes unanswered.

Sound familiar?

The phone rings when every hand is full

Calls outside opening hours go unanswered

The same questions, answered again and again

From the moment it rings to after you hang up

Nothing in the sequence waits on a person. Here is what happens inside a single call.

  1. The call arrives

    Calls to your Sidecall number are picked up without a long ring, and calls that land at the same moment are answered in parallel.

  2. The greeting

    The agent opens with the greeting you set. Use one greeting inside opening hours and another outside them.

  3. Understanding the request

    Conversation blocks capture dates, party size, names, and contact details. Anything unclear is asked again; numbers and names are read back to confirm.

  4. The decision

    Answer now, transfer to a person, or log it for a callback. Conditional and keypad branches decide where each request goes.

  5. Summary and notification

    The call is recorded and transcribed, then summarized and categorized by AI — and pushed on by SMS, email, Slack, or whatever you already use.

What the AI can handle

Not just answering questions — capturing what was said, logging it, and handing off to a person when it matters.

Taking bookings

Captures the date, time, party size, and contact details, then writes the entry to Google Calendar — checking availability first if you want.

Changes and cancellations

Accepts changes and cancellations to existing bookings, logs the details, and notifies the person responsible.

Answering common questions

Hours, location, pricing, what to bring. The AI searches the documents you uploaded to knowledge — no training setup required.

Handing off to a person

Understands the request first, then transfers to the right person. If nobody is free, it takes the message instead.

Capturing callbacks

Takes the name, the number, and the reason for calling — reading each back to confirm, so no digit is recorded wrong.

Answering with customer context

Looks the caller's number up in Salesforce or HubSpot, so the conversation knows whether this is an existing customer.

Zero missed calls, as standard.

Answers 24/7, always

Nights, weekends, holidays — the AI picks up. Inquiries and bookings that arrive outside your hours are still captured and logged.

No busy signal, ever

Calls that land at the same moment are answered in parallel. Nobody sits on hold or hears an engaged tone.

Remarkably human on the line

It asks again when something isn't clear, and reads names and phone numbers back to confirm. Nothing proceeds on a guess.

The follow-up, automated

Every call is summarized and categorized by AI, then pushed onward — calendar entries, Slack messages, your usual tools.

Three steps to set up

No complex configuration. Set it up without code and go live the same day.

  1. STEP 1

    Create your AI agent

    Pick an industry template and enter your hours and FAQs. No code, no training setup.

  2. STEP 2

    Shape the call flow

    Arrange and connect blocks to set what the agent asks and where it transfers — or tell the AI what to change.

  3. STEP 3

    Forward your number

    Point your current line at the number we issue. Keep the number you have and go live in as little as 5 minutes.

Who it's for

  • Small teams with nobody free to answer
  • Businesses losing calls outside opening hours
  • Shops and clinics with heavy booking traffic
  • Anyone automating main-line reception
  • Teams that want to start without setup costs

How teams use it

Restaurants

Take bookings during the rush

When every hand is in the kitchen, the AI answers, captures the date, time, and party size, and logs the reservation.

Clinics

Hours, changes, cancellations

The AI explains opening hours and what to bring, and handles rescheduling and cancellations. The front desk gets lighter.
