What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist is a voice agent that can answer business phone calls, collect caller intent, follow approved intake questions, request appointments, create interaction records, and escalate according to business rules. BizRnR adds industry starting points, supported calendar workflows, structured records, and AI-search visibility. Availability and outcomes depend on configuration and connected services.
