Industry Challenges
For too long, businesses have had trouble efficiently managing their communication channels on several levels due to a lack of resources, training, time, and the expense of having staff answer the phone.
Studies consistently show that upwards of 50% of consumer-to-business telephone calls go unanswered every day. Considering research from Invoka and others indicating that inbound phone calls are 10-15 times more likely to convert than leads from other channels, the opportunity for small business owners to capitalize on telephone traffic is clear.
Your Business’ Best Friend
Onvego’s Smart Receptionist leverages state-of-the-art, proprietary IP, supporting automatic speech recognition (ASR) and natural language understanding (NLU). It encompasses natural language processing (NLP), text-to-speech (TTS), and large language model (LLM) technologies without exposing any of the complexity to customers or callers.
Its conversational voice AI fully integrates with any cloud telephony or business VoIP system. It answers phones, routes calls, sets appointments and stops spam 24/7. With a 99%+ accuracy in voice comprehension, callers can speak naturally and be understood. The easy-to-use technology now turns business telephony from a liability of missed calls into an asset.
Onvego has also introduced its new, AI-powered, fully customizable FAQ module as part of Smart Receptionist’s evolution. It can be used by any business that receives incoming phone calls. The functionality can be set in minutes. No integration is required, and it works seamlessly with existing IVRs.

“At Onvego, we work hard to ensure our products are easy to use and quick to set up. The Smart Receptionist brings the high-touch, expensive existing telephony channel into the modern era,” added Mr. Ziv.
