An After-Hours AI Receptionist That Turns Nights Into Pipeline
Boafo Agent takes over the moment your business hours end, answering chat and calls in your brand voice, booking appointments into Google Calendar and routing emergencies to a named human.
Live in production with real customers. Trained on your business before launch.
What's getting in the way today
- After-hours callers refuse voicemail and try a competitor.
- Weekend leads go cold by Monday morning.
- Bank holidays are an annual coverage gap.
- Night-shift human cover is unaffordable.
- You don't see what's being missed overnight.
How an after-hours AI receptionist works
Boafo Agent activates outside your business hours, answers chat and phone calls in your brand voice and runs the qualifying script you'd want a human to run.
It books appointments straight into Google Calendar with a Meet link or address, captures full lead details to email and Google Sheets, and routes urgent keywords to an on-call mobile.
You get a morning digest of every overnight conversation so nothing slips through.
