After-Hours Calls Going to Voicemail

Better is a business communications company helping organisations communicate more effectively. But like many businesses, they faced a challenge: what happens when customers call outside office hours?

Before, after-hours calls went straight to voicemail. Customers couldn't get answers, issues piled up overnight, and the team started each morning catching up on messages rather than solving problems proactively.

An AI Agent That Never Sleeps

We deployed an AI agent that handles all after-hours calls. It doesn't just answer - it understands the business, helps callers with their questions, creates detailed tickets, and routes everything to the right team for morning follow-up.
