Question 1

Is this just an AI receptionist?

Accepted Answer

An AI receptionist is the entry point. FrontSail AI answers and captures calls, then keeps each request moving into your CRM, into appointments, and into invoice prep. It also shows you the demand behind the calls. The front desk is where most owners start; the assistant grows from there.

Question 2

Can I start with only missed calls?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Most businesses begin with only missed-call, after-hours, or overflow coverage. You review the conversations it captures, build trust, and add more channels or workflows when you’re ready. Nothing has to be swapped out on day one.

Question 3

Do I need to change my phone number?

Accepted Answer

No. FrontSail AI works with your existing number. You forward the calls you want it to handle (all of them, only missed ones, or only after-hours) and keep everything else exactly as it is.

Question 4

Do I have to replace my CRM or job software?

Accepted Answer

No. Keep your tools and add the assistant on top. FrontSail AI works before any integration, then connects to your CRM, calendar, and invoicing when it helps, so captured work flows where you already manage it.

Question 5

What happens when it can’t answer something?

Accepted Answer

It captures the details, classifies the request, and escalates based on the rules you set. That can be a live transfer, an urgent notification, or a message taken. It answers what it can and escalates what it should, instead of improvising.

Question 6

Will customers know it’s AI?

Accepted Answer

You decide how it introduces itself. Either way, callers get an immediate, professional response, and you only promise what you’ve configured (a callback window, an emergency line, etc.).

Question 7

How fast can I get started?

Accepted Answer

You can create a working assistant in three clicks and test it immediately. Activating live channels (missed-call, after-hours, or web chat) takes a few more minutes when you’re ready. There is no long onboarding project.

Question 8

What’s included in the free tier?

Accepted Answer

A real, working assistant you can test with your own business, no credit card required. You start free and upgrade only when FrontSail AI is handling real call volume and doing real work for you.

Question 9

Do I have to start with the front desk?

Accepted Answer

No. Front desk is the easiest first win because most owners feel that pain first. FrontSail AI also automates back-office workflows (CRM updates, dispatch, reminders, invoice prep) without ever touching your phone line.

Question 10

How do field crews use it?

Accepted Answer

Like an office person in their pocket. Techs can ask for context on the next job, get notified when something changes, and log notes or reschedules from the field without phoning the office for every update.
