01 · The reality

The Problem with Human Receptionists

High Monthly Cost
Human receptionists cost $3,000–$4,000 per month in salary and benefits — before overtime, vacation pay, and training costs.
Call In Sick & Take Vacation
Every sick day, vacation day, and personal day leaves your phones unattended. Customers who can't reach you don't wait — they call a competitor.
One Call at a Time
A human receptionist can only handle one call at a time. During busy periods, callers are put on hold or sent to voicemail — and most won't call back.
Training Takes Weeks
Onboarding a new receptionist takes weeks of training before they're fully effective. Aria is trained on your business and live in a few minutes.

We replaced our front-desk receptionist with Aria and cut our monthly overhead by over $3,000. Our patients still have no idea they're talking to an AI.

06 · Common questions

Real questions, real answers.

A virtual receptionist is a remote or AI-powered service that handles your incoming calls professionally — answering questions, booking appointments, capturing leads, and routing calls. Unlike a traditional in-office receptionist, a virtual receptionist works remotely and can handle unlimited calls simultaneously.
Traditional answering services only take messages and forward them to you. A virtual receptionist like Aria actively handles calls — booking appointments into your calendar, answering business-specific questions, capturing lead information, and routing urgent calls. It replaces a front-desk receptionist, not just a message pad.
Yes. Aria checks your real-time calendar availability and books appointments directly during the call. There is no double-booking, no phone tag, and no need for you to manually enter the appointment later. It integrates with your existing calendar system.
Aria handles call answering, appointment booking, lead capture, FAQ responses about your business (hours, services, pricing), call routing and escalation for urgent matters, and bilingual English/French support. It is trained specifically on your business information.
If you miss calls while serving customers, cannot afford a full-time receptionist ($3,000-4,000/month), need after-hours or weekend coverage, or want bilingual English/French support, a virtual receptionist is ideal. Aria starts at $59 CAD/month and handles unlimited simultaneous calls 24/7.
