Remute

A virtual receptionist that actually knows your business

Brief it once with your services, hours and prices. Remute then greets every caller by your business name, answers what it can, and books or routes the rest, in English or Spanish.

It covers the moments your team can't

Five ordinary situations where a phone goes unanswered.

  • 12:30

    Lunch hour

    The desk is empty and the phone is not.

  • Two lines

    Everyone is busy

    A third call doesn't wait in a queue.

  • Mid-visit

    With a customer

    You give them full attention. Remute takes the call.

  • 8:01

    Monday morning

  • Sat

    The weekend

    A summary is waiting when you are back.

  • 01

  • 02

    Books straight into your day

    Collect name, number and preferred time, then confirm by text or email.

  • 03

    Hands the urgent call to the right person

    Urgent calls are transferred or flagged; routine ones are handled and summarised.

Questions about the front desk role

Does it replace my front desk?

It covers the calls your team can't take: busy hours, lunch, nights and weekends. Staff keep the in-person work.

What if it doesn't know the answer?

It says so honestly, takes a message and flags the question, so you can add the answer to its brief.

How long does setup take?

Most businesses are live the same day: add your details, pick a voice, forward your line.

Which languages does it speak?

English and Spanish natively, switching mid-call if the caller does.
