FEATURES

Everything Your Front Desk Has to Do, Done by AI.

Answering, qualifying, booking, transferring, and capturing every word of it. Live in about an hour, with the workflow built around the calls your business actually gets.

WHAT IT DOES ON DAY ONE

Six Things Frontly Does That Matter to You Today

Capability, not a plan sheet. What each of these costs, and how they are packaged, lives on the pricing page.

24/7 AI Inbound Call Answering

Answers every call

Frontly answers within 3 rings day, night, weekends, and public holidays. No voicemail. No after-hours service. Your customers reach a natural-sounding AI agent whenever they call.

Appointment + Booking Capture

Books during the call

Frontly checks availability in its own scheduling system and books the appointment during the call. Bookings land in your Frontly dashboard with full transcript. Optional SMS and email confirmations to caller and team.

Frontly Dashboard

Your cockpit for every call

Every booking, lead, and transcript lives in your Frontly dashboard. Your team logs in each morning to act on what came in overnight. Live-call status, call history, capacity, all in one place.

Warm Transfer to a Real Person

Nobody repeats themselves

When a caller wants a human, Frontly hands the call over with a spoken briefing, so whoever picks up already knows who is calling and why. The caller never explains themselves twice, which is usually the moment a good call turns into a complaint. Available in every workflow.

Unlimited Concurrent Calls

No call queueing

Frontly answers 1 call or 500 calls at the same time. No queueing, no bottlenecks, no 'please hold' music. When a spike hits during tax season or an open-house weekend, every caller still gets answered in under 5 seconds.

Full Transcript on Every Call

Nothing lost in the handoff

Every call is transcribed and attached to the booking or lead it produced, so the person acting on it reads what the caller actually said rather than a half-remembered message. Searchable from the first day you go live.

Comparison based on publicly available information from each vendor's website and product documentation as of April 2026. Where a vendor's marketing is ambiguous, we show '?'. "Enterprise" means Frontly offers the capability on a contracted enterprise plan rather than a self-serve one. We welcome corrections at [email protected].
