AI receptionist UK

First month free – no card needed

An AI receptionist for the calls you miss. Your first month is free.

Forward missed, busy or after-hours calls to FoxEra Receptionist. It answers in your business name, captures the enquiry and gives every caller a clear next step.

Keep your number

Cover the calls your team misses.

1. Keep your existing number

Your customers continue calling the same published business number.

2. Choose when to forward

Use the forwarding options supported by your phone provider for missed, busy, after-hours or selected calls.

3. Capture the enquiry

Configure the business information and questions Receptionist should use, then review the call outcome and follow-up required.

Use it as overflow or your front line.

Keep answering calls yourself and let FoxEra cover the ones you miss, or route calls when you want a consistent answering service. A new business number may also be available where supported.

Final availability, forwarding behaviour and call handling depend on the selected phone setup and agreed business configuration.

Calls in. Calls out.

Questions about FoxEra Receptionist

Is the first month really free?

39p per connected minute after your free first month. Billed per second, with no monthly subscription. One prepaid balance for Calls, Reception and Videos.

Do I need a new phone number?

No. You keep your existing number and forward the calls you choose – missed, busy or after-hours – using the forwarding options your phone provider supports. A new business number may also be available where supported.

How does it answer the phone?

It answers in your business name, gives its own name and asks how it can help. If a caller asks whether they are speaking to an AI, it says so honestly – it never pretends to be human.

What happens if it does not know the answer?

It answers only from the business facts you give it. If the answer is not there, it takes the caller’s name, number and reason for calling so your team can get back to them. It will not make up hours, prices or availability.

Which languages can it answer in?

You choose the language your receptionist answers in, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Italian. With multilingual answering switched on, it can follow a caller who changes language.

How do I see what callers wanted?

You review each call’s outcome and any follow-up needed in your FoxEra account.
