MissedCall AI

## MissedCall AI — 24/7 AI Receptionist for Service Businesses Missed calls can mean missed customers, lost appointments, and lost revenue—especially for small clinics and service businesses that cannot afford to have someone answering the phone around the clock. MissedCall AI addresses this problem with an AI-powered voice receptionist that can answer incoming calls, understand what the caller needs, collect important information, schedule appointments, send confirmations, and escalate urgent calls when nexessary. ### How We Built It MissedCall AI is built around real-time voice AI and a lightweight backend designed to be practical for small businesses. * **AssemblyAI Voice Agent API** handles the real-time AI voice interaction. * **Twilio** provides phone-call handling and SMS functionality. * **FastAPI** provides the backend API and application logic. * **SQLite** stores captured caller and appointment information. * **React** powers the administrative dashboard. The system follows a simple flow: a customer calls the business, the AI receptionist answers and collects the required information, the system determines the appropriate action, and the result is recorded in the backend. The dashboard allows staff to view captured calls and leads and monitor the system's activity. ### Key Features * 24/7 AI-powered phone reception * Real-time conversational voice interaction * Lead and caller information capture * Appointment scheduling * SMS appointment confirmations * Urgent-call routing to human staff * Callback handling when staff are unavailable * Call and lead logging * Administrative dashboard * Configurable prompts and business workflows ### Why It Matters The goal of MissedCall AI is not simply to replace a receptionist. It is to make sure that businesses have a reliable first point of contact whenever a customer calls. A business can configure the receptionist around its own services, questions, appointment availability, and escalation rules.
