What is Ringmere?
Ringmere is an AI-powered phone receptionist specifically designed for service-oriented businesses in the UK. This cutting-edge system operates around the clock, using a natural voice to manage calls and assist with bookings in real-time. It efficiently checks live availability through Google Calendar or Outlook, guaranteeing that only genuinely available time slots are presented and reconfirming before any booking is finalized to avoid double-booking issues. The AI is tailored to handle questions about services, pricing, and hours of operation that you have pre-approved, ensuring that urgent calls are either forwarded to your personal phone or that messages are taken for later review. Restaurants can effectively manage table reservations and takeaway orders based on their current menu selections, while hotels benefit from real-time room availability through integrated services like Beds24 and Cloudbeds. Additionally, every call is carefully transcribed and summarized, with SMS confirmations sent out, and features such as the ability to text back for missed calls and spam filtering are included. For those seeking to expand their communication options, the Growth and Pro plans offer WhatsApp and SMS chat capabilities and support for more than 30 languages. Users can choose to keep their existing number or select a free UK number. Subscription plans start at £49 per month, excluding VAT, and come with a 7-day free trial period, allowing businesses to test the service risk-free. This comprehensive approach makes Ringmere an ideal solution for improving operational efficiency and enhancing customer engagement for service businesses. By adopting this technology, companies can significantly elevate their customer service experience while streamlining their internal processes.
