An AI receptionist that answers when you can't

Borrowers call during your closings, your kid's game and at 9 pm on Sunday. The AI receptionist picks up, answers the basics from your approved knowledge, books a call and texts you a summary — and hands the caller to you whenever a human is needed.

Thanks for calling Harbor Team Mortgage. I'm the team's AI assistant — I can answer general questions or book you time with a loan officer. How can I help?

Hi, do you do VA loans? I'm moving on orders in March.

Yes, the team helps veterans and service members with VA home loans. A loan officer can walk you through eligibility and your timeline. Would tomorrow at 10 or 2 work?

What's your rate right now?

I can't quote rates — they depend on your situation and change daily, so a licensed loan officer gives those. I can make sure they cover it first thing on your call.

2 pm works.

Booked for tomorrow at 2 pm. You'll get a text confirmation. Anything else for the loan officer?

What it is

What is an ai receptionist for loan officers?

An AI receptionist is a voice assistant that answers your business line, introduces itself as an AI assistant, answers general questions from information you approve, collects the caller's details, books an appointment on your calendar and transfers or hands off to a licensed loan officer for anything that needs one. It does not quote rates or approve loans.

Honest limits

What it can do, and what it never will

It can

  • Answer 24/7, including holidays
  • Answer general program questions you approved
  • Book, reschedule or cancel appointments
  • Transfer live calls during business hours

On every channel, never

  • Quote a rate, APR, payment or fee
  • Say a borrower is approved, pre-approved or qualifies

  • Pretend to be a human when asked
  • Treat borrowers differently based on protected characteristics

Consent & compliance

The rules we build around

We summarise public rules so you can ask the right questions. We are not lawyers; your compliance team approves the setup.

  1. 1

    Call-recording consent: some states require all parties to consent to recording; the assistant gives a notice at the start of the call wherever recording is on, and recording can be switched off.

  2. 2

    AI disclosure: the assistant says it is an AI assistant in its greeting and whenever asked.

  3. 3

    Outbound calls with an AI or artificial voice fall under the TCPA; the receptionist answers inbound calls only unless your compliance team approves outbound use with proper consent.

  4. 4

    Consistent answers for every caller support fair-lending consistency; your compliance team reviews the approved knowledge.

FAQ

AI Receptionist questions

Can't find it? Search every answer or ask the funnel desk.

Will callers know they are talking to an AI?

Yes. The greeting says it is the team's AI assistant, and it confirms it whenever asked. Being upfront avoids misleading callers, is required by some state rules, and it keeps trust intact when the call reaches a person.

Can the AI receptionist quote rates?

No. Rates depend on the borrower's file and change daily, and quoting them is a licensed activity. The assistant says a loan officer will cover rates on the call and makes a note so you do.

Is recording calls legal?

It depends on the state. Some states require every party to consent to recording. The assistant gives a recording notice at the start of the call when recording is on, and you can turn recording off. Your compliance team decides the setting for your states.

What happens during business hours?

You choose: the AI can answer only after hours, answer when you miss a call, or answer first and transfer live to you or a teammate. Many teams start with missed-call and after-hours coverage.

How many minutes are included?

The AI Receptionist includes a monthly bundle of minutes, with a per-minute rate after that. Both numbers are on the pricing page and in your order summary.

Can it call leads back?

Outbound AI calls are regulated under the TCPA and need prior express consent of the right kind. By default the receptionist handles inbound calls only; outbound follow-up happens by text (with consent) or by you.

What if a caller is upset or confused?

The assistant recognises frustration and requests for a person, apologises and hands off — live transfer during hours, or an urgent text to you with the caller's number after hours.

Does it work with my existing phone number?

Yes. We set up call forwarding from your current number, so nothing changes for borrowers or on your business cards. We can also provide a new number.

Who writes what it says?

We draft the knowledge from your website, programs and FAQs, and you approve every answer before launch. Changes go through the same approval, so it never improvises policy.
