How do I add a phone number and an AI agent that answers calls and chats on my website?
Once your website is built:
- Get a phone number. Go to Settings, click Phone, then Buy a number. If your niche is nationwide, choose a toll-free number: with a toll-free number you always capture the caller's phone number, even when they call from a private number, so no lead slips through. For a local business, a local number is fine.
- Create an agent from your website. Click Create agent and choose to start with your website: enter the website address, or pick the site the AI built. The AI crawls the site and you have an AI receptionist.
- Turn on the phone. In the agent's channels, flip the switch for your phone number. The AI now answers that number. Put the number on your website.
- Add the website widget. Go to Website widget, create one and pick either the chat and voice widget or the orb. You can customize the colors and more. Save it and copy the embed code.
- Paste the embed code to the AI assistant with the request "put this widget on my website", or paste it into the site yourself.
You then have a website, a phone number and one AI agent answering both calls and chats.
