Questions buyers ask us
What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist is a voice assistant that answers your phone and greets visitors on a lobby screen or your website, 24/7. Aurora answers from your own information, books appointments, sends quotes, takes payments, confirms by text or email and passes complex cases to your staff with a summary.
How much does an AI receptionist cost?
Aurora costs $199/month for the AI Phone Agent, $599/month for the AI Front Desk (phone, lobby and web with sales and payments) and $999/month for Front Desk Pro with a team of attendants by department. Each plan includes AI minutes (400, 800 and 1,250) and you can buy extra minute packs.
Is it cheaper than hiring a receptionist?
Yes. A US receptionist costs about $5,400/month once taxes, benefits and turnover are included, and covers about 40 hours a week. Aurora Pro costs $999/month — about one fifth — and answers 24/7, in several languages, many calls at once.
Which languages does Aurora speak?
Up to 14 languages depending on the plan, including English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, Chinese and Arabic. It detects the customer's language and switches mid-conversation.
Can it take payments and book appointments?
Yes. It checks your real availability, books and reschedules, and sends secure payment links (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay and more). Payments are processed by Stripe — Aurora never sees card numbers.
What happens when a human is needed?
Aurora tells the customer someone will follow up, and sends your team the reason and a conversation summary by email, SMS or WhatsApp. On the phone it can transfer the call.
What are AI minutes and what if I run out?
AI minutes are the time Aurora spends in conversation. Each plan includes a monthly amount; you see usage in real time and can add packs of extra minutes at any moment.
Is my customers' data safe?
Yes. Data is encrypted in transit, card data is handled only by Stripe, personal details are masked in logs, and you can export or delete a person's data on request. We never sell personal data.
How long does setup take?
Most businesses go live in a few days: paste your website, review the answers, choose the rules and avatar, and connect your phone number.
