Phone calls and voice AI

Voice automation is the fastest-growing and most directly revenue-producing AI area of 2025–2026. Service businesses and SMEs lose the most money on calls missed while working. These eight modules answer, book, route and follow up in natural Hungarian, and hand over to a person when it matters.

  • 62% of callers do not leave a voicemail; they call the next number on Google
  • Under 500 ms latency: current voice agents answer in natural Hungarian on the first ring

    Instant lead rescue: missed-call text-back and voice callback

    If the line is busy or unanswered, an SMS or WhatsApp goes out within 30–60 seconds. If the caller wants to talk, the AI books a callback in the owner's calendar at the next free slot.

    Smart call routing and warm transfer

    The AI takes the main number, asks the reason, priority and budget. For a big project or VIP it holds the caller, phones the salesperson's mobile and whispers a brief: 'Mr Kovács from NagyCég Kft, five warehouse halls, wants a quote this month.'.
