AI receptionist for small business
Cindy answers your business calls when you can’t, books customers into genuinely free time, texts a confirmation and leaves you a note — and she calls customers and partners for you, in over 40 languages. It all runs in the Weyvox app on your phone: a call costs ≈ 50 credits for a call of about 2 min, with plans from €19 a month excl. VAT.
- A customer calls
- Cindy answers as an AI agent
- The booking is recorded
- An SMS for the customer, a note for you
What happens when a customer calls
Not an answering machine: Cindy talks with the caller, works from your business profile and price list, and settles the matter during the call.
Over 40 languages
She starts in the language of the caller’s country and switches as soon as they speak another one; she hears tone of voice and stops when interrupted.
Always says she is an AI
Cindy introduces herself as an AI agent at the start of every call, and says the call is transcribed for a note. No call audio is kept.
Books genuinely free time
Before naming a time she checks your working hours, the orders already booked and the busy times in your Google Calendar or phone calendar.
Takes the order
Prices come only from your price list. When the caller agrees, she records the customer and the order before saying goodbye — for you to confirm.
SMS and a note after every call
She texts the customer what was agreed once they say yes, and writes you a note in your own language: who called, what was learned, what was agreed.
You decide when she picks up
Auto-answer picks up at once or after 10–40 seconds of ringing. Cindy answers on Weyvox’s servers, so calls are answered even when your phone is off or without signal.
How long your phone rings before Cindy answers
Cindy picks up the moment the call arrives — your phone does not ring.
Your phone rings for 10 seconds: answer and the call is yours, otherwise Cindy takes it.
Recommended. Your phone rings for 20 seconds: answer and the call is yours, otherwise Cindy takes it.
Your phone rings for 30 seconds: answer and the call is yours, otherwise Cindy takes it.
Your phone rings for 40 seconds: answer and the call is yours, otherwise Cindy takes it.
Decline the ring and the call goes to Cindy at once. With auto-answer off, calls simply ring for you.
The call stays yours
A call she runs shows in the app as a mini call card: listen in, take the conversation over or end it. Your microphone isn’t used until you take over.
- On your own call, tap “AI agent” and Cindy takes the conversation — the other person hears only her.
- Take the call back at any moment, or hand it to her again: she carries on without introducing herself twice.
- On a call you handed her, she never hangs up — ending it is up to you.
- Every call she handled stays in the app, with her note.
Ask in the chat — she makes the call
“Call the supplier and ask when the delivery arrives” — she dials, presses the keys of phone menus and reports back with a note. Outgoing calls reach over 200 countries.
Whether she dials straight away or first shows you a card with the number is set by her Autonomy switch:
The agent places calls on its own — from the chat and in background tasks — without waiting for your yes.
The agent calls only after your yes: before every call from the chat it shows a card with the number and the purpose, and background tasks call no one.
Your own number, or a new one
Buy an operator number in the app, or forward your existing business number to it: customers keep calling the number they know. Connecting your own number costs nothing.
Buy a number in the app
- Choose the country and the number: the price is shown before you pay.
- Where the country checks documents, the app asks for exactly those, and a temporary number can work during the review.
- Up to 10 numbers on one account.
Connect your business number
- Calls to the number on your cards and storefront are forwarded to your Weyvox number — customers keep the number they know.
- Choose incoming, outgoing or both; you confirm ownership with a code.
- Free to connect, no monthly fee; forwarded minutes are billed by your carrier.

Get a number
After you choose a plan, buy a number in the app or connect your own. Where the country checks documents, a temporary number works right away.

Switch on auto-answer
On Cindy’s page choose when she steps in: at once, or after 10, 20, 30 or 40 seconds of ringing.
You pay for the minutes she works
Cindy is included in every Weyvox plan, from €19 a month excl. VAT, together with the rest of the team. The plan’s monthly credits pay only for the work done, and an agent you switch off costs nothing.
A minute of a call with Cindy is her voice plus her work — 23 credits a minute in all — and the operator line for the country is added. A call to your Weyvox number has its own small incoming-line price.
What a credit is: 1 credit = €0.01 excl. VAT
Prices of the work
- A minute of an agent call — voice and conversation
- 15 credits per min + the agent’s work at token rates — about 23 credits per min in total, plus the line
- Operator line for an outgoing call — depends on the country called
- from 1 to 559 credits per min, depending on the country — the table of countries is on the pricing page
- Incoming line — a call to your Weyvox number
- from 1 credit per min on a local number
- SMS to a customer
- ≈ 8 credits per segment, depends on the country
- Operator number
- The price depends on the country and the number — the app shows it before you buy.
- Temporary number
- 200 credits once — works right away while the documents for your main number are checked

Questions
What does an AI receptionist do for a small business?
It answers the calls you can’t take and settles the routine on the call. Cindy answers in your business’s name, quotes only your prices, books customers into genuinely free time, records the order, texts a confirmation and leaves you a note — and she also calls customers and partners for you.
How much does an AI receptionist cost in Weyvox?
Cindy is included in every plan, together with the other agents. You pay only for her minutes on calls, from the plan’s monthly credits and then from your balance; the exact prices — a minute of a call, the line by country, SMS and numbers — are in the Price section of this page and on the pricing page.
Can Cindy answer my existing business number?
Yes. Switch on call forwarding from your business number to your Weyvox number with your carrier and connect it in the app — connecting costs nothing. Customers keep calling the number they know; your carrier bills the forwarding at its own rates.
Do callers know they are talking to an AI?
Yes. At the start of every call Cindy says she is the AI agent of your business and that the call is transcribed for a note. This cannot be switched off, and no call audio is kept.
Does it work when my phone is off?
Yes. Cindy answers on Weyvox’s servers, not on your phone, so calls are answered even when it is off, asleep or without signal. The call then appears in the app with her note.
Which languages does Cindy speak?
Over 40. She starts an incoming call in the language of the caller’s country, judged by the number, and switches as soon as the caller clearly speaks another one. Her note to you is written in your own language.
Can an AI receptionist replace a human receptionist?
Not entirely, and Weyvox doesn’t claim it. Cindy covers the calls you can’t take and the routine — answers, bookings, orders and confirmations. A person is still better at judgement and complaints; when a call needs you, take it over from the app.
Are AI phone calls legal?
In the EU an AI has to say it is an AI, and Cindy always does. Sales calls to consumers have their own rules — in France they need prior consent. More in the guide Are AI phone calls legal?

Cindy works best with the rest of the team
Each agent is a full product on its own. Together they share one business profile, one price list and one list of customers — and pass work to each other.
