Does an AI receptionist really work? Check it yourself.
Talk to it in a minute
Paste your website below. In under a minute your receptionist is built from your own pages and you can call it in your browser, before you give us an email address.
Read every rule it follows
Nothing is hidden. In your dashboard every rule is written in plain English, and you can change any of them and hear the difference on the next call.
Watch the message land
Ring your own number after it's live. Seconds after you hang up, the summary, the caller's details and the full transcript are in your inbox, and the message is texted to your mobile.
Try this on the demo call
Hang up on it. It rings you back.
Lose signal mid-call, or hang up by accident, and it rings you straight back and carries on where it was. No answer? It leaves a short message. Humans forget to ring back. This doesn't.
The voice
Press play. Would you know it wasn't a person?
It listens while it talks, lets callers interrupt, and answers in the time a person would. Callers can't tell the difference. Press play and hear for yourself.
What does hiring a optician receptionist really cost?
The surgery enquiry that rang during a test
A caller weighing up laser surgery is worth a great deal to the clinic. They rang during an eye test, and nobody picked up.
An optical receptionist must know frames, lenses and clinical
They pre-screen, handle collections, explain lens options and book tests. The ones who can do all of it are dispensing assistants, and cost more.
Collections and repairs tie up the phone
Are my glasses ready, can you fix this arm, has my lens order come. Each call is a trip to the shelf while the test booking rings out.
Saturday is the busiest day and the thinnest rota
Families come in on Saturday. One receptionist is doing the desk, the pre-screen and the phone, and the phone loses.
What changes with an AI receptionist instead of hiring
Surgery dates secured with a deposit
It explains treatments and finance from your website, books the consultation, and takes the deposit by text.
Eye tests booked by type and length
A full test, a contact lens check, a child's first test, each with the right length of slot and the right optometrist, into the connected calendar.
Repairs and adjustments as messages
A snapped arm, a loose screw, a nose pad gone. It takes the patient's name and the problem, and the dispensing team gets a message rather than a queue at the counter.
Overdue recalls answered when they ring
A patient who has had a reminder rings to book. It finds the right slot, books it, and texts the time.
It happens to be AI. That is why it never calls in sick, never needs cover, and answers several callers at once. You do not need to know anything about AI to use it: paste your website, pick a voice, connect a number.
Three calls an optician receptionist takes every week
What the caller says, what SiVoice does, and what lands with you.
Child's first eye test
“My son is six and the school has said he is squinting at the board. Can you test children?”
It explains from your site that you test children and what the test costs or whether it is free, exactly as written, and books a 30-minute slot after school on Wednesday. It tells the parent to bring any glasses already worn.
A family booked on a Saturday without the desk stopping.
Lost a lens on holiday
“I am on holiday and I have lost a contact lens. Can you send me some to the hotel?”
It takes the patient's name, the prescription if known, and the hotel address, and sends a message to the contact lens team. It explains the postage policy as written.
An urgent lens order captured on a Saturday evening.
Are my varifocals ready
“I ordered varifocals two weeks ago. Are they in yet?”
It takes the name and the order date, sends a message to the dispensing team to check the shelf and ring the patient back, and gives the usual turnaround from your site.
A collection query handled in seconds, with the team ringing when the answer is known.

Optician receptionist salary against an AI receptionist: the numbers
Median full-time pay from the national statistics office, before employer taxes, pension, holiday and sick cover, recruitment and training. Team is the best plan: three numbers, an AI receptionist per location, deposits on the call, ring-backs, several callers at once. Solo is the one-person option.
Sickness figure: ONS, Sickness absence in the UK labour market, 2023 and 2024. Agency fees vary; check the agency's own terms.
Why not voicemail, an answering service or another receptionist?
Each of them answers part of the problem. Only one answers every call, knows your business and costs less than a day of a receptionist's time.

Optician receptionist questions, answered
Updated November 2026
We have several clinics. Can one line cover all of them?
Each location gets its own receptionist on its own number on the Team plan, each knowing that clinic's address, hours and diary, so callers are never given the wrong site.
Is this instead of a receptionist, or as well as one?
Either. Some businesses use SiVoice instead of hiring, some use it to take the phone off a receptionist who is already run off their feet, and some use it to cover the gap while they recruit. It answers the phone; a person still greets whoever walks in.
How quickly can it start?
