What is Sayora?

Sayora is an AI phone receptionist for UK small businesses. It answers missed or diverted calls, books callers into Google Calendar or Cal.com, screens spam and sends each lead by text or email with a summary. Setup is generated from your website and Google listing in about a minute.

Sayora is a phone receptionist built for small UK businesses that cannot always get to the phone. It answers calls in your business name, day or night, takes the caller's details, books appointments against your diary and sends you a written lead the moment the call ends. The product is aimed squarely at tradespeople, estate agents, security firms and other owner-run operations where a missed call is a lost job. The company positions itself around one problem: the calls you miss while up a ladder, driving or with a customer. Setup starts with your business name or website. Sayora reads the site and your Google listing and drafts a receptionist in about a minute, then lets you correct it. You can add up to ten rules in plain English, each checked when saved, and supply answers to the questions callers always ask. You pick one of 18 British and Irish voices and give the receptionist a name. Calls reach it either through a new local or 03 number you choose, or by diverting only the calls you miss on your existing line. Booking runs against Google Calendar or Cal.com, and the caller gets a confirmation text. In practice Sayora is deliberately conservative. When it does not know something it takes a message and passes the question to you rather than inventing a price or a promise. Every new caller is told they are speaking to an AI and that the call is recorded, and cold callers are screened out before they reach your inbox. Each lead arrives by text, email or both with a summary, the caller's number and any details you asked for, marked urgent where relevant. Against human answering services it is cheaper and always on, but it cannot transfer a live call to you, which some callers will find limiting. Against generic AI voice agents it is narrower and more opinionated: UK numbers, UK voices, UK small business workflows.

How do you use Sayora?

  1. 1Build a draft receptionist from your website

    Write up to ten rules in your own words and add answers to the questions callers always ask. Sayora checks each rule as you save it, and answers are given word for word.
  4. 4Claim the account and choose your number
    When you are happy, claim the receptionist, add a card and pick a local or 03 number. The 7 free days start at that point.

  5. 5Divert your missed calls
    Sayora shows you the diversion codes for your phone and rings your line to test them. You keep answering as normal and only the calls you miss go to the receptionist.
  6. 6Connect your diary and watch leads arrive
    Link Google Calendar or Cal.com so bookings land in the right slot, then check the portal for call summaries, leads and screened spam after each call.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Receptionist is generated from your website and Google listing in roughly a minute, then refined with your own answers and rulesAI
  • Books callers directly into Google Calendar or Cal.com and texts them a confirmation, so appointments appear without manual entryAI
  • Lead summaries arrive by text, email or both as the call ends, including caller number and the details you asked forAI
  • Callers are told they are speaking to an AI and that the call is recorded, and unknown questions are passed to you rather than guessedAI
  • Keeps your existing number: missed calls divert to Sayora, so nothing about your current phone setup has to change permanentlyAI

Cons

  • No live call transfer: when a caller asks for you, Sayora can only take a message, which will frustrate urgent enquiriesAI
  • Some callers hang up once they hear they are talking to an AI, so a share of inbound calls will never convertAI
  • Cap of ten custom rules, which may be tight for businesses with varied services, pricing conditions or seasonal offersAI
  • Pricing and the 36 early bird places are aimed at UK businesses only, with no visible support for numbers outside the UKAI
  • Booking depends on Google Calendar or Cal.com, so anyone on another calendar system has to change tools or book manuallyAI
