Never miss a business call — for real.
Every inbound call answered, qualified and either routed or captured. 24/7, instantly, in your business's voice. AI receptionist that runs alongside your existing phones and pays for itself in captured leads.
What we hear every week.
The frustrations behind why businesses search for never miss a business call in the first place. If any of these feel familiar, the fix is straightforward.
Voicemail loses leads
Most callers don't leave voicemails. The ones who do often don't leave enough information to follow up properly. Every unanswered call is a lead at significant risk of disappearing.
Out-of-hours enquiries
Customers research in the evening, call to book on the weekend, raise issues outside hours. Without 24/7 answering, all of those go to nobody.
No visibility on what's being missed
Most UK businesses don't know how many calls they miss. The data isn't in any report. Without visibility there's no urgency to fix.
Competitors a Google click away
Caller doesn't reach you, Googles 'X near me', calls the next result. You're not just losing one call — you're losing the customer entirely.
Every call answered, every time
An AI receptionist that picks up every call instantly — first ring, every time, 24/7. Trained on your business so it sounds natural and informed: services, pricing language, team names, opening hours, service area. Captures caller name, contact details, and the substance of the enquiry. Routes urgent calls to the right person on your team in real time; queues non-urgent enquiries as leads that drop straight into your CRM. Works alongside your existing phone setup — no rip-and-replace.
The Telexico approach to never miss a business call.
Six things our customers consistently tell us matter.
First-ring answer, 24/7
Every call answered immediately, no exceptions — evenings, weekends, bank holidays, all included.
Trained on your business
Your services, your tone, your team, your hours, your service area — sounds like part of your team.
Smart routing
Urgent calls forwarded to mobile in real time; non-urgent captured as leads with full transcripts.
Full visibility
Every call transcribed, tagged and reported on — finally see what's actually being asked.
CRM and SMS handoff
Leads flow straight into Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive; optional SMS or WhatsApp follow-up to the caller.
Runs alongside existing phones
Overflow, after-hours, or full reception — your choice. No rip-and-replace of existing phone system.
Built to capture revenue currently going to voicemail
Most UK SMEs miss 20-40% of inbound calls and lose most of them entirely. Capturing even half of that lost call traffic is meaningful revenue — usually well in excess of the AI receptionist cost. The math is straightforward once you measure what you're actually missing.
How it works for businesses like yours.
Three real-world setups we deliver across the UK.
Trades and field services
Plumbers, electricians, builders on site. AI receptionist captures every call, qualifies urgent vs routine, forwards emergencies to mobile.
Professional services
Solicitors, accountants, consultants — every missed enquiry is potentially significant revenue. AI captures every one and qualifies the brief.
Hospitality and retail
Restaurants, hotels, salons, shops — peak-time call overflow plus after-hours bookings. AI catches both.

Frequently asked questions
What's the typical missed-call rate in UK SMEs?
Studies consistently show 20-40% of inbound business calls go unanswered in SMEs without 24/7 coverage. Trade and field services often higher. Capturing even half is significant revenue.
Does the AI receptionist sound like an AI?
Modern voice AI is convincingly natural — most callers don't realise unless they ask directly. We're upfront if asked. The caller experience of 'connected immediately, polite, helpful' is usually better than the alternative of voicemail.
Can it handle complex enquiries?
It handles structured qualification very well — name, contact, what they need, how urgent. For genuinely complex conversations it routes to a human; for simple bookings it can take the booking directly. We design the call flow around your specific business.
How is it different from a phone system auto-attendant?
Auto-attendant routes calls based on key presses ('Press 1 for sales'). AI receptionist has natural conversation — the caller says what they need, the AI responds appropriately, captures the info, routes intelligently. Completely different caller experience.
What happens if it can't understand someone?
Fallback to a human team member, or take a clean voicemail with transcript, or escalate via SMS — depending on what we've configured. Callers don't hit dead ends.
How much does it cost?
Less than part-time human reception. Pricing scales with call volume rather than headcount. We'll quote based on your actual volume and feature needs — get in touch for tailored numbers.
Can it integrate with my CRM and calendar?
Yes — Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Zoho, Microsoft Dynamics, plus major UK industry-specific systems. Leads flow into CRM; if booking is part of the flow, available appointments can integrate with calendar.
