		Related Products Numa Dealerships don't lose customers because of price. They lose them because the phone rings and nobody answers, the customer calls three times for one status update, and the manager finds out about a problem when the survey comes back. Numa is the AI Operating System that fixes this where it breaks: in the daily work. Operator answers and routes every inbound call, so nothing goes dark. Status Updates reaches the customer before they have to call, so advisors stop drowning in callbacks. Voice AI books the appointment in the conversation, so the customer never waits. LiveCSI™ flags upset customers in real time, so managers step in before the CSI score takes the hit. Opportunities goes after declined services, open recalls, and equity moments while they're still warm. One inbox. One shared context. Your whole team working from the same system. Surveys tell you what happened last month. Numa is what happens today. 14 Ratings Visit Website Community Phone Calling made modern. Your business number. Your employees' phones.

About AskSiya Inc. is a Toronto-based company behind Siya, an AI-powered phone receptionist built for small businesses. Siya answers inbound calls in one ring, 24/7 — taking food orders for restaurants and processing room bookings for hotels and motels, with every call delivered to a business dashboard complete with transcripts, live order tickets, and confirmation emails. The company was founded on a simple observation: during a busy dinner rush at a neighborhood pizzeria, staff were too occupied to answer the phone, and customers simply ordered elsewhere. Large chains solve this with call centers; small operators are left with voicemail. AskSiya was built to close that gap, on the belief that no small business should ever lose a customer to a missed call. Siya supports over 100 languages with mid-call switching, filters robocalls, transfers callers to staff when needed, and manages real-time room availability for lodging properties. Setup takes under 15 minutes.	About Upfirst is an AI-powered virtual receptionist. Founded on the belief that small businesses should be able to afford great answering services, we help people change how they run their businesses by making it easy and affordable to get a virtual receptionist that’s dedicated to them. Upfirst helps small businesses answer calls around the clock so that callers never reach a voicemail. Businesses use our AI answering service to give callers an immediate human-like voice to answer questions, take messages, set appointments, and more. Knowing that every call is covered by a knowledgeable receptionist, business owners are able to focus on the day-to-day tasks that continue to drive their business forward, saving themselves time and money.
