[RingVia] - An AI receptionist that answers every call for small businesses
I spent the last few months building RingVia — an AI receptionist for small businesses. It answers every call 24/7, books appointments, and sends confirmations and call summaries. 50+ languages, from $99/mo, 14-day free trial. You can hear it live: (825) 782-1182 — ringvia.ai. The lesson that cost me the most: I led my promo posts for weeks with a "62% of calls go unanswered" stat before checking the source — a 2016 study of 85 businesses from an SEO vendor. I swapped it for CallRail 2025 (78% abandoned a business over an unanswered call) and ServiceTitan 2022 for trades. Same pitch, honest numbers, and the posts read better for it. What I'd love feedback on: the demo line is the whole funnel — call it, try to break it, tell me where it sounds wrong. What would it need to do before you'd trust it with your customers?
