Picked up every single call on the first ring. Brilliant.
Books appointments straight into calendar without fuss.
Great value starting at £49 a month.
UK focused so no US numbers yet.
AI-synthesized perspectives grounded in live site inspection, pricing structure, and category benchmarks — presented as editorial viewpoints rather than individual customer testimonials.
Answers on the first ring day and night with a real-time, speech-to-speech voice that holds a natural conversation instead of sending callers to voicemail.
Books, reschedules and cancels appointments against live availability in Google Calendar or Outlook, plus table reservations, takeaway orders and hotel room bookings, so the same slot is never promised twice.
Asks who is calling and what they need, logs it against the call, and escalates emergencies, complaints and vulnerable callers to your team with full context.
On Growth and Pro, two-way AI chat on WhatsApp and SMS handles bookings and questions, and every customer email gets a drafted reply for you to send.
Calls are transcribed and summarised on a dashboard with recovered-revenue tracking; owner alerts and daily summaries arrive on WhatsApp, and GDPR-ready records are stored in the UK with disclosure on by default.
Ringmere replaces the voicemail-and-missed-call problem with an AI receptionist that answers every call on the first ring. You keep your existing number or take a new UK local number, teach the assistant your services, prices, opening hours and FAQs — by importing from a website, PDF, spreadsheet or even a photo of a price list — and approve everything before it goes live. Calls are answered 24/7, transcribed and summarised, and booking confirmations, reminders and missed-call text-backs go out automatically.
The product is built for businesses that live on their phone: salons, barbershops, dental and aesthetics clinics, physio, vets, garages and MOT centres, plumbers, restaurants, takeaways and hotels. On higher tiers it also answers WhatsApp and SMS in two-way AI chat, drafts replies to customer emails, routes calls to up to five departments or an unlimited number of teams, and syncs hotel room bookings with channel managers such as Beds24 and Cloudbeds.
Ringmere emphasises control and compliance: it only uses services, prices and answers you have approved, checks live availability to avoid double bookings, and escalates vulnerable or urgent callers straight to a person. Customer records are stored in the UK, with GDPR readiness, encryption and an AI-and-recording disclosure switched on by default. Pricing is month to month with no long contract: Starter at £49, Growth at £99 and Pro at £249 per month excluding VAT, each with included minutes, extra minutes at £0.25/min (or £0.20 on Pro), and a 7-day free trial. White-label reseller plans are available for agencies, franchises and multi-location groups.
Ringmere answers while you are mid-appointment, books the client into a free slot in your calendar, texts a confirmation and follows up missed callers, so busy periods no longer mean lost revenue.
Calls are answered on site, caller name, number and job details are logged, urgent breakdowns are transferred to your mobile, and you get a reminder when a quote request is still open.
The assistant handles table reservations, takeaway orders and room bookings against live availability, and on higher plans syncs rooms with channel managers.
Route calls to up to five departments by voice or keypad, or go unlimited on Pro, and white-label Ringmere under your own brand to manage every client from one dashboard.
