How it works
Pick your business type, the main goal of the call, and how handoffs should work. The builder assembles a script with an opening and disclosure, the call-reason question, boundaries for what the receptionist will not do, the next step, a confirmation read-back, the handoff, and a close.
Replace the bracketed placeholders with your details, read the script aloud, and test it with your team before it goes near a live call. Short lines work best on the phone, because callers interrupt.
Making the script yours

Frequently asked questions
Should the script say it is an AI?
We recommend a short, clear disclosure at the start. Callers handle it well, and it builds trust.
Can I use this script with any AI receptionist?
Yes. It is plain text you can paste into most AI receptionist or voice agent platforms as instructions.
How long should the script be?
Each line should be one or two short sentences. The whole call should usually take a couple of minutes.
Can you write a script for our business?
Yes. Contact us and we will build one around your call types and rules.
