5.0 out of 5 stars
(1 Rating)
Ringzel is a cloud-based AI receptionist for small businesses that cannot always answer incoming calls. It answers calls forwarded from a business's existing number, introduces itself as automated, asks configured questions, captures caller details and the reason for the enquiry, and follows business-defined instructions for urgent calls. After each call, users can review a recording, transcript, summary and separate call-check report in their Ringzel account. An AI website chat also captures visitor questions and enquiries. Higher-tier plans add calendar bookings, call transfers and team routing, while Premium adds integrations and reputation management. Businesses can use Ringzel to handle enquiries from trades, clinics, dental practices, garages, salons, estate agents and other local services, then follow up with callers using the information collected. All plans include unlimited calls with no per-call charges.
