Smart Scheduling, Seamless Service

Pencil’d uses conversational AI to take calls and understand requests, in real-time.

Here’s how Pencil’d works from start to scheduled.

Set it up once, and let your AI receptionist take it from there. No special equipment, no learning curve, just your business, running smoother.

Step 1

Train your virtual receptionist

Start by teaching your AI the basics of your business, your name, hours, services, and the questions customers ask most often. This ensures your AI can sound helpful and informed on every call.

You can also personalize the experience by naming your receptionist and customizing how it greets callers. The more you share, the smarter it becomes.

Step 2

Pick your business number

Decide how you'd like your customers to reach your AI. You can get a brand-new Pencil’d phone number or keep your current number and forward calls to your AI assistant

Either way, customers won’t see a difference. You’ll keep your number if you’d like, we’ll just help route calls behind the scenes.

Step 3

Pencil’d Answers Your Calls

During the hours you define, Pencil’d will answer your incoming calls, greet customers using your chosen script, and help them find what they need.

Whether it’s answering FAQs or booking a service, your AI receptionist is ready to handle it, no manual scheduling or missed calls.

Step 4

Get Bookings, Instantly Synced

Once a call is handled, you’ll be notified immediately. All appointments are synced directly to your connected calendar, so you never miss a beat.

You can also choose to receive transcripts or summaries of each call, giving you full visibility into your business without the busywork.
