AI phone agents
Dialzara
Dialzara is an AI receptionist that answers inbound business calls around the clock. The agent greets callers in a configured voice, answers questions from a knowledge base built on the business, books appointments, screens spam, qualifies leads with questions the owner defines, takes messages and transfers calls to the right number.
Setup runs through the dashboard: create an account and add the website, from which the platform drafts an editable prompt; choose a voice and a dedicated local or toll-free number; upload training documents, call scripts, recordings or page URLs to the knowledge base; then enable call forwarding with the existing carrier. The site says most businesses are live in about 15 minutes and that the prompt can be changed at any time without a support ticket.
The same platform also runs outbound voice agents, two-way AI SMS and an embeddable website chatbot, each trained on the same business context. Voicemails and calls are transcribed and delivered by SMS and email with the original audio attached and stored in call history, and post-call workflows can be pushed to Slack, a CRM or other applications through Zapier. Google Calendar is the booking integration described, with real-time availability checks before a slot is offered.
Inbound plans start at $29 a month with no setup fee and a 7-day free trial. Outbound is a separate plan from $750 a month for 1,500 contacts, SMS plans start at $19 a month plus $0.05 per AI message, and the website chatbot is $39 a month standalone or bundled with a voice plan. The company's address is 408 S Eagle Rd Suite 53, Eagle, ID.
Best for
Operators and property managers who lose calls after hours or while out on site and want every call answered, booked and summarised without hiring. Teams that need a calendar other than Google or integrations beyond Zapier should check fit first.

Common questions
- How much does the AI receptionist cost?
- Inbound plans start at $29 a month, with no setup fee and no long-term contract, and include a dedicated number, unlimited call handling and full customization. Outbound voice agents are a separate plan from $750 a month for 1,500 contacts, SMS plans start at $19 a month plus $0.05 per AI message, and the website chatbot is $39 a month on its own or bundled with a voice plan. A 7-day free trial is offered.
- Can I keep my existing business phone number?
- Yes. An existing business number can be forwarded to Dialzara, or Dialzara can provide a new local or toll-free number. Going live is a matter of enabling call forwarding with the current carrier.
- How long does setup take?
- The site says most businesses are live in about 15 minutes: answer the onboarding questions, import website content or documents into the knowledge base, test the agent by chat or phone, then forward the number when ready.
- What happens if the AI cannot answer a caller's question?
- It routes the call to a person. Transfer numbers and the conditions for using them are set by the owner, multiple transfer extensions are supported for different call types, and escalation rules and custom responses can be defined for specific scenarios.
- How many calls can it handle at the same time?
- Unlimited simultaneous calls, according to the site. Whether one call or a hundred arrive at once, each is answered rather than queued, which is the difference it draws with a per-agent answering service.
