Every call answered and booked, 24/7.

That is our own line, answered by the same system you would be buying. Ask it for a quote.

What the AI Receptionist does

MannVenture's AI receptionist answers your business phone 24/7, in your company's words. It answers questions, quotes the work, books the job and sends you the recording, the transcript and the summary. $97 CAD a month plus a one-time $297 implementation fee. A front-desk hire runs $37,670 CAD a year in wages, before employer costs.

A sample exchange.

Three canned conversations with a made-up cleaning company, showing the three things the receptionist does on every call.

  • It answers the question in the business's own words
  • It quotes the range the business configured
  • It books the visit and confirms it by text

Every reply in this panel is scripted. The version that answers our real line is the live product.

Summit Cleaning Co.A made-up business, for this demoScripted demo

Hi, you've reached Summit Cleaning. I can answer a question, quote a job or book a visit. What do you need?

How much for a 3-bed home?

A standard clean for a three-bed, two-bath usually runs $180 to $220, depending on condition.

Want me to hold a spot this week?

Book me in, please

Done. I'll take the first open slot: Friday, 10:00 AM.

You'll get a text confirming the time and the price we talked about.

What it does when a call gets difficult.

Callers hear your business name, so a bad phone experience costs you more than a missed call does. These are the rules it follows.

If a caller asks whether they are talking to a person, it tells them the truth.

It says it is an assistant for your business and carries on. It does not pretend to be a person.

When it does not know something, it says so and gets you.

It does not guess at a price, invent an availability, or improvise a policy. You set what it can quote and what it must escalate.

Emergencies go straight to your phone.

You write the rules for what counts. No heat in January, water on a floor, a bride the day before the wedding, whatever your business's version of urgent is.

You hear every call.

Every call arrives in your inbox as a recording, a transcript and a plain summary, so you hear what the caller said rather than a second-hand account of it.

Fixes do not need a ticket.

Tell us what it got wrong and we change it. The terms for the first 30 days are in the price section below.

We built this on our own line first and let strangers call it before we sold it to anyone.

The phone rings while you are with someone else, and it still gets answered.

Every call becomes a booking, or a summary in your inbox.

  • Answered every time, at two in the morning and on a Sunday
  • Callers get quoted and booked without waiting for you to call back
  • Every call recorded, transcribed and summarised, so nothing gets reconstructed from memory
  • Emergencies route straight to you, on rules you write
  • You stop losing the job to whoever picked up first

A person at the desk: generally Monday to Friday, per WorkBC's Receptionists career profile, checked 20 July 2026. The AI answers the same line on the weekend too, and anything it cannot handle routes to you on rules you write.

You do not change your number, and you do not lose it.

Forward it

Your number stays where it is with your current carrier. Calls forward to the AI. Nothing about your billing or your listings changes, and you can switch the forwarding off yourself in under a minute.

Port it

We move the number onto our system. Same number, one bill fewer.

Either way it is your number. If you ever leave, it leaves with you.

Wages are $37,670 CAD a year from WorkBC's Receptionists career profile, checked 20 July 2026; employer costs on top are real and are not in it. The answering-service price is from smith.ai/pricing/receptionists on the same date and is in US dollars. Ours are in Canadian dollars and exclude tax. The AI Receptionist handles the routine call and hands anything unusual to you.

Everything it costs, including the month you go over.

The whole price: the monthly, the build fee and the overage.

$97CAD a month

One-time $297 implementation fee

Included: 75 calls a month. Past that, $0.75 CAD per call. Spam and wrong numbers do not count.

In your first 30 days, we keep configuring your AI receptionist at no extra charge until it answers, quotes and books the way we agreed. That work is covered by the implementation fee.

No hourly billing.

All prices are in Canadian dollars and exclude tax.

If you are busier than that

75 calls is two or three a day. A month where the phone rings 150 times costs $97 plus $56.25. You see the count in your dashboard all month, so it never arrives as a surprise.

$97/mo, plus $297 CAD for the build.

The build fee is due at signing.

The AI Receptionist runs on its own.

Answering the phone is half of it. The AI Website answers the people who find you online, quoting and booking them the same way, and the AI Growth Engine is what makes the phone ring more often in the first place.

All three bought together are the Complete System, $457/mo CAD and a one-time $997 implementation fee: one implementation, one invoice, and one team that knows the whole setup.

How fast it goes live.

  1. Today

    You start the setup and book your call. Nothing touches your phone line yet.

  2. Day one

    Thirty minutes. How you answer the phone, what you quote, what counts as an emergency, who it reaches and when.

  3. Days two to four

    We build the agent on your business, connect it to how you take bookings, and test it. You get a number to call and try before anything touches your real line.

  4. When you say go

    You forward your line, or we port it. Not before you have heard it yourself.

  5. Every month after

    Recordings, transcripts and summaries in your inbox, and we keep tuning it on what your real callers ask.

Nothing goes near your real phone number until you have called the agent yourself and said yes.

What owners ask before they forward their line.

An AI agent that answers your business phone like someone who works there. It greets callers in your company's words, answers their questions, quotes the job, books it, and hands you the recording, the transcript and the summary. Ours runs 24/7 and hands anything unusual to you.

$97 CAD a month plus a one-time $297 implementation fee. Caller qualification, emergency routing, recordings, transcripts and summaries are all included. A front-desk hire runs $37,670 CAD a year in wages, before employer costs, and works weekday hours. Prices exclude tax.

No. We forward or port your existing number, whichever you prefer. Either way it stays your number.

It says so and routes the call to you, and it flags emergencies immediately. You set the rules for what gets escalated. Everything else gets answered, booked and summarised.

If they ask, it tells them, plainly, and carries on with the call. Call 236-500-MANN and judge how it sounds.

Calls past 75 a month bill at $0.75 CAD each. Spam and wrong numbers don't count. You can see the running count in your dashboard, so it never arrives unannounced.

An answering service takes a message. This answers the question, quotes the work and books the job, then sends you the recording, the transcript and the summary.

Some field-service tools now bundle one. The difference is that ours is set up for your business by people who do it for a living, connected to your website and your follow-up, and tuned every month on what your real callers ask.

Yes, and they are charged in Canadian dollars, so there is no exchange rate and no conversion fee on your card. Prices exclude tax.
