Frequently Asked Questions

How does AI SMS work?

When someone texts your business number, the AI reads their message, understands the enquiry, and sends a professional reply that captures their details. You get the lead notification instantly.

Does the AI have a full text conversation?

SMS uses our one-reply model — one clean, professional response that acknowledges the enquiry and captures the customer's details. It's efficient and effective for text-based communication.

Does it work with my existing business number?

Yes. We configure SMS handling on your existing number so customers keep texting the same number they always have.

How much does AI SMS cost?

AI SMS is £29/month as an add-on to the Core plan (£39/month). Unlimited SMS responses included.

Can I reply to texts myself after the AI responds?

Yes. The AI handles the initial response so the customer knows you're responsive. You then follow up manually whenever you're free.

What about spam texts?

The AI is trained to identify genuine enquiries. Spam and marketing texts are ignored — only real customer enquiries trigger a response and notification.

What if my business changes its prices or services?

Just drop us a message — routine business updates are free and included in your plan. If you've updated your pricing, added a new service, changed your working hours, or expanded your service area, we'll update your ai sms within 24 hours at no extra charge. This covers the kind of day-to-day changes any trade business makes — it's all part of keeping your AI accurate and up to date for your customers.

How does Speed Receptionist handle my customers' personal data?

Speed Receptionist processes customer enquiry data solely for the purpose of capturing and delivering leads to your business. We operate as a data processor under UK GDPR, meaning your business remains the data controller. All data is processed and stored within the United Kingdom, encrypted in transit and at rest, and retained only for as long as needed to deliver the service. We never sell, share, or use your customers' data for marketing purposes. Your customers are informed their details are being collected for service purposes. You can request deletion of any data at any time, and we will action it within 30 days in accordance with UK GDPR requirements. Our full privacy policy is available on our website and details our complete data handling practices, retention periods, and your rights under UK data protection law.
