Invoice4Biz AI Receptionist

AI Receptionist for Small Business

A virtual AI phone receptionist that answers your business calls, talks with your customers, collects their name, phone number, email, and reason for calling — and takes messages when you can't pick up. Built for florists, contractors, and other service businesses, right inside your Invoice4Biz invoicing software.

Features

What the AI Receptionist does

Answers incoming business calls

Your AI receptionist picks up when customers call your business, using a greeting you control.

Talks with customers naturally

It answers questions about your services, hours, and pricing — using the business info and FAQs you teach it.

Collects caller details

Captures the customer’s name, phone number, email, and reason for calling — every time.

Takes messages for you

When a caller needs to speak with you, the AI takes a message and it appears in your Invoice4Biz dashboard.

Handles appointment & callback requests

Callers can request an appointment or a callback, and the request lands in your messages with their contact info.

Transfers to a real person when needed

When you allow transfers, the AI can connect the caller straight to your phone — you decide when.

Who it's for

Built for service businesses

AI receptionist for florists

Answer flower orders, delivery questions, and pricing calls while you're arranging. The AI takes messages and callback requests for the ones that need you personally.

AI receptionist for contractors

On a job site and can't answer the phone? The AI collects the caller's details, quotes your services, and sends you the message — then send the invoice from Invoice4Biz when the job's done.

Privacy by design

Never touches your invoices or payments

The AI Receptionist is a simple utility for answering calls, FAQs, and taking messages for you. It never handles invoices, payments, or sensitive customer billing data — those stay in Invoice4Biz's separate, secured invoicing and bookkeeping tools.

Pricing

$49/month — 100 minutes included

The AI Receptionist is an add-on to any Invoice4Biz plan. 100 minutes of AI call time are included each billing period. If you need more, extra minute blocks are only added with your explicit approval — never an automatic overage charge. See how it pairs with Invoice4Biz Bookkeeping, or explore Invoice4Biz invoicing.

FAQ

AI Receptionist questions, answered

What is an AI receptionist for small business?

An AI receptionist is a virtual phone receptionist that answers your business calls, talks with customers, answers common questions, collects caller details, and takes messages when you can’t pick up. Invoice4Biz’s AI Receptionist is built specifically for small and service businesses, and it lives right inside your invoicing software.

Does the Invoice4Biz AI Receptionist answer live calls yet?

Live call answering is built into Invoice4Biz and activates as soon as your business phone line is connected to the service — that final phone connection is currently in setup, so live call handling is labeled Coming Soon. Everything else — your business profile, greeting, FAQs, message collection, transfers, and minute tracking — is ready today.

Can the AI receptionist take messages and collect customer information?

Yes. When a caller wants to reach you, the AI collects their name, phone number, email if provided, and the reason for their call, plus any message. Every message shows up in your Invoice4Biz messages screen with a callback number.

Is an AI receptionist good for florists, contractors, and other service businesses?

Yes. The AI Receptionist works for any service business — florists, contractors, cleaners, salons, and more. You teach it your own services, hours, pricing, and FAQs, so it answers the way your business would.

Does the AI receptionist handle invoices or payments?

No — by design. The AI Receptionist never handles invoices, payments, or sensitive billing data. It focuses on calls, FAQs, and messages, while Invoice4Biz’s invoicing and bookkeeping tools handle your billing separately.

How much does the Invoice4Biz AI Receptionist cost?

The AI Receptionist is $49/month and includes 100 minutes of AI call time per billing period. If you need more, extra minute blocks are available — and only added when you explicitly approve them. No surprise overage charges.
