Virtual Receptionist — common questions
What is a virtual receptionist?
A virtual receptionist answers business calls without an on-site front desk — greeting callers in your name, routing them, and taking messages. Dial Raven's is automated, answers instantly 24/7, and handles many callers at once.
How is it different from an auto-attendant?
An auto-attendant mainly routes callers through a menu. Dial Raven's virtual receptionist also greets, captures messages, handles after-hours and overflow, and delivers an AI summary of each call.
Does it work after hours and on weekends?
Yes. It answers nights, weekends, and holidays, which matters because most businesses receive a large share of calls outside standard 9-to-5 hours. Every caller gets a response instead of voicemail.
Will it save money versus hiring a receptionist?
Almost always. A full-time in-house receptionist can cost $35,000–$45,000 a year plus benefits and covers only business hours. Dial Raven provides 24/7 coverage for a fraction of that cost.
How long does it take to set up?
Most businesses are live in under 24 hours. Our US-based team configures greetings, routing, and after-hours rules, and you keep your existing business number — no new hardware.
