What happens when you miss a call

Most callers who reach voicemail don't leave a message. They call the next company on Google. Ringtern stops that.

  1. A customer calls

    You're on a job, driving, or it's after hours.

  2. Ringtern picks up

    After a few rings it answers in your business's name, in a natural voice.

  3. It handles the call

    Answers questions, spots emergencies, takes the details and books the job.

  4. You get the job

    A job ticket lands on your phone by text and email seconds later.

Hear yours answer in 60 seconds

Give us your website. We read your services, area and hours, build your receptionist, and you talk to it as one of your customers.

  • Talk to it in your browser, from anywhere, or have it call your US mobile.
  • Try a real situation: a leak, a quote, an awkward question.
  • See the job ticket you'd have received, here and in your inbox.

What you get

One receptionist, trained on your business, working every hour you aren't.

Answers in your name

"Thanks for calling Smith Plumbing." It knows your services, area, hours and the prices you're happy to quote.

Books the job, not just a message

Takes the name, address, problem and preferred time, reads it back, and confirms the next step.

Spots emergencies

Burst pipe, gas smell, no heat in a freeze: gives safety advice and puts the call straight through to you if you want.

A job ticket on your phone

Every call becomes a clear ticket by text and email within seconds. No voicemails to listen to.

Texts back anyone who hung up

If a caller drops before speaking, they get a quick text so you don't lose them.

Your calls in one place

A simple dashboard with every call, recording and ticket, plus a weekly summary by email.

Live in a day. Nothing to learn.

We set it all up for you. You keep your number and answer when you can; Ringtern catches the rest.

  1. 15-minute setup call

    We go over your services, area, hours, prices and what counts as an emergency.

  2. We build your receptionist

    Your own greeting, knowledge and rules, on a local number of its own.

  3. Forward missed calls

    One short code on your phone sends unanswered calls to Ringtern. We walk you through it.

  4. Jobs start arriving

    Every missed call becomes a ticket. Change your hours or services any time.

Prefer it to answer everything and only put through what matters? That's one setting.

Simple pricing. No contract.

One missed job usually costs more than a month of Ringtern. Cancel any time.

Questions owners ask

Will my customers know it's AI?

It sounds natural and answers in your business's name. If a caller asks, it says it's your AI receptionist. Most people just want their problem sorted.

Do I lose my phone number?

No. You keep your number and keep answering when you can. Calls you don't pick up are forwarded to Ringtern after a few rings.

What if it gets something wrong?

It reads details back to the caller and never makes up prices or promises. Every call is recorded and on your dashboard, and we tune it with you in the first weeks.

Can it book straight into my calendar?

Yes, if you use Google Calendar, Jobber or Housecall Pro. Otherwise it takes the preferred time and you confirm it.

What happens in an emergency?

You decide: it can put the call straight through to your mobile, or take the details, give basic safety advice and mark the ticket urgent.

Who sees my calls and customer details?

Only you and the small team that runs your account. We never sell or share your data, and recordings are deleted after 90 days.

Is there a contract?

No. It's month to month and you can cancel any time.

Rather talk to a person?

Tell us about your business and we'll call or email you back within one working day. Setup takes about 15 minutes of your time.
