Key Outcomes
From Voicemail to Full Coverage
The Challenge
After-Hours Calls Going to Voicemail
Better is a business communications company helping organisations communicate more effectively. But like many businesses, they faced a challenge: what happens when customers call outside office hours?
Before, after-hours calls went straight to voicemail. Customers couldn't get answers, issues piled up overnight, and the team started each morning catching up on messages rather than solving problems proactively.
100% to Voicemail
Every after-hours call went unanswered

The Solution
A Digital Worker That Never Sleeps
We deployed a digital worker that handles all after-hours calls. It doesn't just answer - it understands the business, helps callers with their questions, creates detailed tickets, and routes everything to the right team for morning follow-up.
How Every After-Hours Call Is Handled
From incoming call to triaged ticket, fully automated
Always Available
The digital worker answers every after-hours call instantly. No waiting, no voicemail, no frustration.
Knowledge Base Powered
Connected to Better's knowledge base, the agent knows everything about the business and can actually help callers with their questions.
Automatic Ticketing
Every call generates a detailed ticket automatically. Call summary, customer details, and required actions all captured.
Intelligent Triage
Tickets are automatically routed to the right department. Sales enquiries go to sales, support issues to support, billing to accounts.
