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.

A phone showing the receptionist ringing back after the line dropped

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 physiotherapy receptionist really cost?

Hands on a patient, phone ringing

A sole practitioner cannot answer mid-treatment. The person in pain on the line books with whoever picks up.

A sole practitioner cannot afford a receptionist

One physio treating six patients a day cannot pay a salary for the phone. So the phone rings in the treatment room and the patient on the couch hears it.

Insurance questions eat the gaps between patients

Which insurers you take, whether a referral is needed, what the excess is. Every one is answered between treatments, and the next patient waits.

Injured callers ring once, in pain, and want today

Someone who has put their back out rings three clinics in a row. The one that answers and offers a slot this afternoon gets them, and their next ten sessions.

What changes with an AI receptionist instead of hiring

Initial assessments booked with a deposit

It explains what an assessment involves and the price from your website, books it into the connected calendar, and texts a deposit link. Team plan.

Insurance questions answered from your list

It says which insurers you accept, whether a GP referral is needed and what the patient should bring, and takes a message for anything else.

Follow-ups and cancellations handled mid-treatment

A patient moving next week's session, or cancelling. It finds the booking, offers the next free slot, and the physio does not take a hand off the patient.

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 a physiotherapy receptionist takes every week

What the caller says, what SiVoice does, and what lands with you.

Back went lifting a sofa

“I moved house yesterday and my lower back has gone. I can barely stand. Can anyone see me today?”

It asks the screening questions you set, and if nothing flags it offers the 3.15pm cancellation this afternoon. It books it, gives the price and what to wear, and takes a deposit by text.

A same-day new patient booked while the physio was mid-treatment.

Runner's knee on a Sunday

“I am training for a marathon in six weeks and my knee has been painful since this morning's long run. Do you treat runners?”

It explains from your site that you treat running injuries, gives the assessment price, and books Tuesday at 7.30am. It notes the race date so the physio can plan around it.

A new patient booked on a Sunday with the race date already in the notes.

Insurer approved six sessions

“My insurer has approved six sessions. Do you bill them directly, or do I pay and claim?”

It checks your list and explains how that insurer is billed as written, takes the authorisation number, and books the first session. It sends a message to the physio with the insurer details.

Six sessions started correctly, with the billing route settled on the first call.

Physiotherapy 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.

A receptionist, a yearA receptionist, a monthSiVoice Team plan, a month BestSiVoice Solo plan, a month
United Kingdom£24,678£2,057£354 · excl. tax£150
United StatesYou$37,230$3,103$449 · excl. tax$199
Deutschland€33,636€2,803€419 · excl. tax€179

Nothing against them. They're people, and people have lives. The phone doesn't.

The fee before the salary

A recruitment agency typically charges a percentage of the first year's salary, commonly 15 to 25 percent, or a daily margin on a temp.

The salary is the start

Add employer's National Insurance or payroll tax, pension, training, and the cost of covering the desk when they're away.

Off sick

UK workers lost an average of 4.4 days each to sickness in 2024, says the ONS. The phone does not get the memo.

On holiday

28 days a year in the UK, and you pay for every one of them. Who answers while they're on the beach?

At lunch

One o'clock sharp, which is when the phone is busiest.

Evenings and weekends

Not on the rota. That is when customers finally have a minute to ring.

Monday morning, the text

Can't make it today. The desk is empty and the week starts on the back foot.

Two calls at once

One person answers one call. The second one is voicemail, however good they are.

Hands in their notice

Just as they finally know the job. Back to the advert, the gap and the training.

SiVoice: none of the above. Every call answered, day and night, from $449 a month on the Team plan.

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.

Physiotherapy receptionist questions, answered

Updated November 2026

Can it handle private health insurance questions?

It answers from whatever you give it, for example which insurers you accept and what the caller needs to bring. Anything beyond that, it takes a message for you.

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?

Paste your website and it is built in 30 seconds. You can talk to it in your browser straight away, before you give us an email address. Connecting a phone number takes a few more minutes, and it is answering the same day.
