About

Hostly is a hosted AI receptionist and chat widget for business websites. Businesses install it with a script snippet and provide information about their services, products, opening hours and prices. Website visitors can ask questions in the chat; the assistant answers from the business profile. When bookings are enabled, it can offer times returned by Hostly’s calendar or a connected Beauty Calendar. Businesses can optionally accept deposits or full payments through Stripe. The inbox lets staff review conversations, take over a thread or hand it back to the AI. Hostly is intended for small businesses and practices such as salons, clinics, restaurants and shops. An optional WhatsApp button opens the business’s WhatsApp for a human response; Hostly’s AI does not reply in WhatsApp or answer phone calls.

About

Ringzel is a cloud-based AI receptionist for small businesses that cannot always answer incoming calls. It answers calls forwarded from a business's existing number, introduces itself as automated, asks configured questions, captures caller details and the reason for the enquiry, and follows business-defined instructions for urgent calls. After each call, users can review a recording, transcript, summary and separate call-check report in their Ringzel account. An AI website chat also captures visitor questions and enquiries. Higher-tier plans add calendar bookings, call transfers and team routing, while Premium adds integrations and reputation management. Businesses can use Ringzel to handle enquiries from trades, clinics, dental practices, garages, salons, estate agents and other local services, then follow up with callers using the information collected. All plans include unlimited calls with no per-call charges.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Setup was pretty straightforward and didn't take long. The dashboard is easy to navigate and I can check calls and messages without any hassle. The app is useful too.

Cons

  • Nothing major so far, took a bit of getting used to but overall it's been fine.
