About After Hours Answering HQ

We built After Hours Answering HQ to give business owners a practical way to handle calls outside office hours. A weekend request, a lunch-hour call, and a question during a holiday closure each need an answer based on your business. Your receptionist uses the information you supply to ask useful questions and decide which instructions apply.

Your instructions shape the conversation

You teach the AI through an onboarding chat and your website. Tell it your services, boundaries, opening hours, price policy, and what deserves an urgent alert. You also choose the people it should contact and the order for contacting them.

When calls forward to it, the receptionist answers as your business while clearly saying it is a virtual assistant and that the call is recorded. It can take messages, book appointments into Google Calendar, or attempt a warm transfer to your on-call person. Call alerts arrive by email and app push with a summary, urgency tag, transcript, and recording.

See the work before deciding

Our proof is a conversation you can try. Use the no-signup voice demo to hear the receptionist handle a fictional business scenario. Then request your business trial to add your information and make a test call before forwarding goes live.

We sell the service online, with an email sign-in link and onboarding handled through the AI chat. You can change settings in plain words and review calls in the dashboard. The subscription runs month to month, and you can cancel online.

Keep judgment with your business

The AI can make mistakes, so you review important messages and keep a backup way to be reached. Your team makes the service decisions. We provide the conversation, intake, and handoff tools so you can assess whether this way of answering fits the work you do after hours.
