AI receptionist
A receptionist that knows your prices and your calendar.
Khairo answers every call on your booking line, answers from your own price list, and books the visit into a real free slot. It says it's an AI, gets every detail right, and puts the call through to you when it should.

The phone rings mid-job
Under a car, at the chair, with a customer: the people who could pick up are busy doing the work that pays.

02How it works
Live the same day, no sales call.
Khairo learns from what you already have. You stay in control of every answer and every rule.
- Step 01
Show Khairo your business
Drop in your price list or point it at your website, then add your services, how long each takes and your opening hours.
- Step 02
Read its answers
Before anything goes live, see how Khairo answers your callers' questions, and fix what isn't right in your own words.
- Step 03
Publish your booking line
Put your Khairo number on your website, Google profile and sign. From then on, every call is answered and booked.
03What Khairo does
Everything a good front desk does.
Answers every call, day and night
Evenings, weekends, lunch breaks and the busy Monday morning. Khairo picks up every call on your booking line, whenever it comes.
Answers from your own price list
Prices, services, opening hours and policies come from the files or web page you give it. Khairo answers from them, and says so when the answer isn't there instead of guessing.
Gets the details right
It asks who the visit is for, confirms the mobile number for the text, and reads back the name, day, date and time. Nothing is booked until the caller says yes.
Books only real free slots
Khairo never invents a time. It offers the slots your calendar actually has for that service, books the one the caller picks, and the booking is final.
Puts calls through, keeps your number private
When a caller needs you, Khairo transfers the call to your own phone and tells you who it is. Your private number is never read out. If you can't pick up, it takes a message.
Says it's an AI, up front
Every call starts by telling the caller they're talking to your AI receptionist. No pretending, and no awkward moment later.
Tell it how you work
Write your own instructions in plain words (“we don't take new patients on Fridays”) and Khairo follows them on every call.
Handles emergencies your way
You name the emergencies (“strong pain”, “the car won't start”) and choose what happens for each: put the call through to you, book the earliest slot even at short notice, or take the details and alert you at once.

05Questions
AI receptionist: what owners ask
What is an AI receptionist?
Software that answers your phone the way a front desk does: it picks up every call, answers from your own information and books the visit. Khairo does it for appointment businesses, from your price list into real free slots in your calendar.
Is Khairo a call answering service?
It does the same job without a call centre. Every call is answered, day and night, from your price list, and booked into a real free slot instead of becoming a message for you to return.
Does Khairo say it's an AI?
Yes, at the start of every call. Callers know who they're talking to from the first sentence.
What does Khairo know about my business?
What you give it: your price list, website, services, opening hours and policies, plus any instructions you write. You read its answers before it goes live.
What if a caller asks something it doesn't know?
Khairo says it doesn't have that answer rather than guessing, and offers to take a message or book a visit.
Can callers reach me in person?
Yes. Khairo puts calls through to your own phone when your rules say so, such as emergencies or late changes, and callers on your list ring straight through.
Which number does Khairo answer?
A local number that becomes your booking line. You publish it on your website, Google profile and sign; your own phone stays private.
Never miss a booking again.
Forward your number, and Khairo answers, books and brings customers back. Be one of the first clinics, salons and garages to go live.
