Callout AI vs other AI receptionists
ARROW, ConnectCall, and Invox all answer your calls. Callout AI is the only one that calls you first, briefs you on who's ringing and why, then connects the customer — before you say hello.

Prices verified May 2026. ARROW: £99/mo, no warm transfer. ConnectCall: from £67/mo, no calendar booking. Invox: £99/mo, no post-call summaries. Human answering services (Moneypenny, AnswerConnect): £174–£395/mo — and they still can't brief you before connecting the caller.
Warm transfer
When an emergency comes in, the AI calls your mobile first. It says: "John Smith on the line — no heating, gas smell, 14 Oak Street." Then it connects you. No other UK service does this.
Books during the call Coming soon
Live Google Calendar booking is rolling out shortly: the AI will check your diary in real time and lock in the slot before the caller hangs up. Today it captures the caller's preferred time and alerts you to confirm — already ahead of ARROW, ConnectCall and Invox, which leave the booking entirely to you.
Post-call AI summary
After every call you receive a structured summary: caller name, issue, address, urgency, and recommended action. Ready to act on before you put your tools down. No competitor at this price level offers this.
Stop paying for missed calls.
Your AI receptionist goes live in minutes. Answers every call with a natural British voice, captures the lead, and alerts you instantly — 24/7.
