AI Receptionist overview
Last updated: 2026-05-15
The AI Receptionist is a virtual front-desk assistant that answers calls on your behalf around the clock. It greets callers in their own language, answers questions from a knowledge base that you control, and routes calls to the right person, queue, or department based on what the caller actually asks for.
What it does
- Always-on answering. Each AI Receptionist handles up to 10 calls at the same time, so peak periods don't go to voicemail.
- Multilingual. The receptionist detects the language a caller is speaking and replies in the same language.
- Custom personality. Pick a voice, set a greeting, and choose which skills are switched on.
- Knowledge-based replies. Upload FAQs, product sheets, or web pages. The receptionist searches them in real time when a caller asks a question.
- Intent-based routing. The receptionist understands what the caller wants and transfers them to the right extension, queue, or department on the first attempt.
What you need
- A Drömlik plan that includes AI Receptionist minutes. Every plan ships with 60 free one-time minutes; you can extend capacity with the AI Receptionist (One-Time) add-on or the AI Receptionist (Monthly 200 min) pack.
- A valid TLS certificate on your Drömlik tenant.
- SIP TCP enabled in System Settings → SIP → General. A reboot is required after you enable it.
How to roll it out
- Create an AI Receptionist — name, number, language, voice, and greeting.
- Add contents to the knowledge base — files or URLs the receptionist can quote from.
- Manage skills — turn greeting, dial-by-name, transfer, and knowledge lookup on or off.
- Test the receptionist in the admin console before going live.
- Update settings and company information as your business changes.
- Make the receptionist reachable: assign it a direct DID, or use it as the destination of an inbound route, an IVR option, or a Call Flow Designer transfer.
Monitoring
Track usage from the Dashboard and from Plan → Add-on Subscription. The system fires two event notifications: one when capacity is approaching the limit, and one when it's exhausted.
Review what the receptionist actually said in Reports and Recordings → CDR (full transcript and summary per call) and in the AI Receptionist Call Activity report.
