No More Missed Calls: WSS Aktiv Beraten’s AI Reception Bot Delivers Instant Client Care
.png)
WSS Aktiv beraten is a German business consultancy that fields a high volume of inbound calls—both during staffed hours and after hours. To ensure no client inquiry is ever missed and to uphold a “human-first” ethos, they introduced an AI-powered reception call bot. After three rings (or outside office hours), the bot picks up, captures the caller’s intent and contact details, and either answers simple FAQs or seamlessly hands off to a live agent via callback or SMS link. This 24/7 “always-on” approach has already strengthened client trust and noticeably lifted overall satisfaction.
Techstack
- Voiceflow for conversational flow design
- Twilio for telephony integration and SMS delivery
- Custom RAG-based Knowledge System for on-demand FAQ responses
The impact
- Zero missed calls: every call unanswered by staff (after three rings or outside business hours) is immediately handled by the AI bot—guaranteeing 100 % capture of client leads.
- Instant acknowledgment: callers receive immediate confirmation of their request, eliminating frustration from waiting or busy signals.
- Consistent “human-first” experience: by cloning the receptionist’s voice and tone, the bot feels like part of the team—maintaining brand warmth even when no human is available.
The problem
WSS Aktiv beraten’s reception desk had two major challenges:
- Peak-time bottlenecks
During busy periods, midday when consultants are on calls, or later afternoons when the receptionist is tied up—important client inquiries were either put on hold or sent to voicemail, risking lost business or frustrated prospects. - After-hour gaps
Outside normal office hours (evenings, weekends, Fridays), every call hit an answer machine, leaving potential clients unsure if their message was received or when they’d hear back.
Their ideal support model was clear:
Human-first handling whenever possible, but never leaving a caller hanging—24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
The solution
To deliver on that vision, we built and deployed an AI Reception Call Bot with these key capabilities:
- “Human-first” ring logic
- Three-ring handoff: the system monitors the first three rings at the main line. If no staff member answers within that window, the AI bot immediately picks up—mirroring the etiquette of a busy human receptionist.
- After-hours auto-answer: Outside of staffed business hours, the bot answers every call right away.
- Voice cloning for authenticity
- Using a cloned recording of the real receptionist’s voice, callers experience a familiar greeting and tone, ensuring brand continuity and reducing any perception of “robotic” interaction.
- Intent & contact data capture
- The bot guides callers through a brief, natural dialog—asking whom they wish to reach, the purpose of their call, their name, and phone number (if not already captured). This structured intake ensures that live agents have all context when they follow up.
- Tiered response handling
- Simple FAQs via knowledge base: common questions (office hours, location, service scope) are answered instantly using a retrieval-based knowledge system.
- Callback scheduling: for complex inquiries, the bot logs the request and schedules a human callback—sending the consultant an SMS or email summary of the caller’s needs.
- SMS link for immediate actions: when callers request to register an employee or complete quick transactions, the bot sends a one-click SMS link that takes them to a secure web form for real-time processing.
Internal stakeholders at WSS Aktiv beraten have praised the seamless rollout and the authentic voice cloning:
“Our callers still feel they’re talking to our front desk—even when no one’s there. It’s a game-changer for client trust.”—Reception Team Lead
The result
Although quantitative metrics are still being tracked, early qualitative feedback has been overwhelmingly positive:
- No lost leads: every incoming call now receives some form of response—either an immediate answer or a clear promise of action—dramatically reducing caller drop-off.
- Enhanced satisfaction: clients comment on the “speed and professionalism” of the service, noting that even after hours they feel “heard and prioritized.”
- Team focus: with routine intake handled by the bot, the receptionist and consultants can concentrate on deep conversations and value-added work rather than administrative call-logging.
Looking ahead
WSS Aktiv beraten plans to further enrich the bot’s capabilities:
- Dynamic voice persona: introduce multiple “moods” in the cloned voice (e.g., more formal in the morning, friendly in the afternoon).
- Proactive outbound prompts: have the bot periodically check in with existing clients to schedule reviews or send reminders.
- Omnichannel expansion: bring the same “human-first” AI logic to web chat, WhatsApp messaging, and email triage.
