The problem

Every missed message is a customer going to your competitor.

You're busy doing the work. Calls ring out, WhatsApps sit for hours, and after 6pm nobody answers. Customers don't wait. They message the next business on Google.

Without AskZuri

  • Enquiries after 5pm wait until tomorrow
  • Customers book whoever answers first
  • You reply between jobs, in a rush
  • No idea how many enquiries you lose
  • A receptionist costs a full salary

With AskZuri

  • Every enquiry answered in seconds, 24/7
  • You're the first to reply, every time
  • Accurate answers from your own facts
  • Every lead and chat on your dashboard
  • From a fraction of a salary

Firms that respond within an hour are about 7× more likely to qualify a lead than those that wait longer (Harvard Business Review).

How it works

Live in a week. Zero tech skills needed.

We learn your business

A 30-minute call. We train your AI on your website, services, prices, opening hours and FAQs, in your tone of voice.

You test it, we perfect it

You try to trip it up. We tune it until it answers like your best member of staff. Nothing goes live until you're happy.

It goes to work

One line of code on your site, and your phone number if you want calls answered. Every lead lands on your phone in seconds, with a one-tap WhatsApp reply, and appointments go into your calendar.

Website chat agent All plans

Answers questions instantly, qualifies the enquiry and collects contact details. Customers can type or just talk to it.

Answers your WhatsApp Growth Connecting soon

Customers message your WhatsApp Business number, typed or as a voice note, and get an instant, accurate reply, even at 11pm. Every chat becomes a lead.

No website? You get one All plans

Your own business page with services, prices, hours, map, WhatsApp button and the AI built in. Share it on Google Maps, Instagram and Facebook.

Your own dashboard All plans

Every lead and conversation, and how many came in while you were closed. Plus free quotes & invoices: send by WhatsApp, get paid by EFT or your own payment link.

AI voice receptionist Pro Set up with you

Picks up the calls you can't take, after hours or when you're busy, in a natural South African voice, and books or takes a message. You get a summary of every call with a one-tap call back. You keep your own number.

Bookings in your phone calendar Growth

Booking requests come to you; confirm in one tap and it lands in your iPhone or Android calendar with a reminder, and the customer gets a WhatsApp confirmation. Or link your own booking page.

Missed-call text-back Growth Set up with you

Missed a call? The caller gets a text within seconds with a link to your assistant, so they don't ring the next business. You keep your own number.

Chases unpaid quotes Growth

A quote nobody paid gets a polite follow-up on day 3 and a last note on day 10, by email or one tap from your WhatsApp. Your dashboard shows the rands it brought back.

Google review requests Growth

When a job is done, every customer is asked once for a Google review, with the message already written. You see how many opened the link.

A Tuesday night, with AskZuri

You're at dinner. Your business is still selling.

  1. A new customer messages

    "Hi, how much is a lash lift and can I come Saturday?" Your phone stays in your pocket.

  2. Answered in 3 seconds

    "A lash lift is R450, and yes, Saturdays 08:00–14:00. Shall I book you in?" Correct price, from your own facts.

  3. Details captured

    Name, number and what she wants, saved to your dashboard. No back-and-forth.

  4. You're alerted

    A short summary lands on your phone. Read it now or at breakfast.

  5. You confirm, she's booked

    One quick message from you. The competitor who replied at 10am never had a chance.

FAQ

Questions owners ask us

Will it sound robotic or annoy my customers?

No. It's trained on your business and writes like a friendly, switched-on receptionist. Try the live demo above. If it doesn't know something, it says so and takes their details rather than making things up.

What if it gives a wrong answer?

It only answers from the facts you approve. Anything outside that, like a custom quote or a medical question, gets passed to you with the customer's details. You see every conversation and we tune it every month.

Do I need a new website or any tech skills?

No. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify and any other site with one line of code, and we install it for you. Phone answering (Pro) works with your existing number: you forward the calls you miss with one code.

How fast can I be live?

Usually 3–7 days from your onboarding call.

Am I locked into a contract?

The first 3 months are the minimum so the AI has time to learn and prove itself. After that it's month to month. Annual plans get 2 months free.

Do I need a website?

No. If you don't have one, you get your own business page with your services, prices, hours, map, WhatsApp button and the AI built in. Put the link on your Google Maps listing, Instagram bio and Facebook page.

Can it answer my WhatsApp?

Yes, and the cheapest way is the WhatsApp plan at R299/month: customers message AskZuri's shared WhatsApp line through your own link or QR code, and your assistant answers as your business. That shared line is waiting for Meta's approval, and we message you the moment it is live. On Growth and Pro your assistant can also use your own WhatsApp Business number (connecting soon). That number can't be used in the normal WhatsApp app at the same time, so we'll help you choose: a new number for the AI, or moving your existing one over.

What happens with emergencies?

It recognises urgent situations and tells the customer exactly what to do and who to call, using the numbers you give us (and emergency services if anyone is in danger). Urgent leads are flagged so you see them first.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. On Pro your AI gets its own number, and one code on your phone forwards only the calls you don't answer, decline or can't take. Switch it off any time from your own phone.

What does it cost to run? Any hidden fees?

Your monthly plan covers everything listed for that plan. If you ever need more (for example many extra voice minutes), we tell you first and agree it with you. No surprise bills.

Is it safe for medical and dental practices?

Yes. The assistant answers general questions (prices, hours, which medical aids you accept) and books patients, but it never asks for ID numbers, medical aid numbers, card details or medical history. If a patient types one anyway, it is removed automatically before anything is saved, and the patient is asked to give those details to your team securely. It never gives medical advice.

Who owns the data?

You do. Your conversations and leads are yours, we never sell data, and you can export everything at any time. The assistant always tells customers it's an AI if they ask.

Is it GDPR / POPIA compliant?

Yes. We follow UK and EU GDPR and South Africa's POPIA. We process data only to provide the service to you, store it securely, and give you a data processing agreement. Your privacy notice should mention the AI assistant, and we'll give you wording.

Free, no obligation

Prefer to talk to a person first?

Leave your details and we'll get back to you within one working day. We'll show you your own AI receptionist, answer your questions and help you pick the right plan. No pressure.
