Our AI answers every phone call 24/7, books appointments into your CRM or calendar, reactivates lapsed customers with outbound calls, and delivers full transcripts after every conversation. It is not a chatbot or IVR menu - it is a real voice AI that conducts natural conversations. **Who is AInora for?** Service businesses where missed calls mean lost revenue: dental clinics, veterinary clinics, hotels, restaurants, law firms, debt collection agencies, beauty salons, real estate agencies, accounting firms, insurance brokers, auto dealerships, medical clinics, call centers, and B2B sales teams. **What does it mean that AInora is not a chatbot?** Chatbots handle text in a browser. IVR menus ("press 1 for booking") frustrate callers. AInora answers the phone and conducts a real conversation with natural pauses, follow-up questions, and the ability to handle unexpected requests, interruptions, and emotional nuance. **How do I try AInora?** Call any demo number above. The agents are production-grade - same product we deploy for paying clients, just wired to a demo scenario. Calls are free and take under 3 minutes. **Is there a signup or trial form?** No signup needed to try the demos. To deploy for your business, book a scoping call at https://ainora.lt/contact. ## Pricing **How much does AInora cost?** Custom pricing based on call volume, number of languages, and which integration tier you choose (Level 1 missed-call assistant, Level 2 advanced agent, Level 3 outbound, Level 4 conference bridge, Level 5 intelligence suite). An AI voice agent typically costs a fraction of a single human receptionist while providing 24/7 coverage and unlimited simultaneous calls. **Is AInora cheaper than hiring a receptionist?** Yes. A human receptionist in the Baltics costs EUR 25,000-35,000 per year all-in (salary + Sodra + vacation + sick leave + recruitment + equipment). AInora costs a fraction of that and covers nights, weekends, holidays, and peak hours with no degradation. **Are there per-minute or per-call overage charges?** Pricing is transparent and tier-based, not pay-per-minute. We scope call volume upfront so you know the monthly cost. **Is there a setup fee?** Some deployments have a one-time setup fee depending on integration complexity. It is disclosed upfront during scoping. **What is the typical ROI payback period?** Most clients break even in the first month through a combination of cost savings and revenue captured from previously missed calls. A single recovered new-patient booking for a dental clinic covers monthly AI cost. ## Setup & Deployment **How long does it take to deploy?** Level 1 (missed-call assistant, no CRM integration) works within 24-48 hours. Level 2 (full agent with CRM booking) typically deploys in 1-2 weeks. Complex multi-language, multi-integration rollouts take 2-4 weeks. **What do you need from us to get started?** Access to your CRM/PMS (API key or service account), examples of common call scenarios, your business hours, your service menu and pricing, and a list of staff with their availability. We handle the rest. **Do you provide the phone number?** Yes. We provision a local number in your country (LT, LV, EE, US, UK, DE, PL, or others) and route it through our telephony stack. You can also forward your existing number to our system. **Can AInora replace our existing receptionist?** Most clients start with AInora as an after-hours safety net, then expand to full front-desk replacement once they see the conversion and cost numbers. We recommend starting conservative and scaling up. **What happens during setup?** Kick-off call to map your workflows, prompt engineering and voice selection, CRM/PMS integration, pilot on a single location or campaign, production rollout across locations once metrics look good. ## Languages & Voices **What languages does AInora support?** Lithuanian (native fluency), English (US and UK), Russian, Polish, Latvian, Estonian, German, Finnish, French, Spanish, Ukrainian, and more. 10+ languages in production today, with additional languages configurable on request. **Can the AI switch languages mid-call?** Yes. If the caller starts in Lithuanian and switches to Russian, the AI follows within one sentence. This is nearly impossible with human staff and is a decisive advantage in multilingual markets like Vilnius, Riga, or hotel lobbies. **Are the voices natural-sounding or robotic?** Natural. Each language uses a named voice persona (Agnė LT, Jessica EN, Ieva LT, Ava EN, Emily EN, Jess EN) trained for warmth, pace, and the specific industry context. Most callers do not realize it is AI unless told. **Can we use a custom voice or brand persona?** Yes. We can train a custom voice persona with your chosen name, gender, accent, tone (warm/professional/energetic), and language mix. We do this for clients who want the AI to feel like an extension of their brand. **Does the AI handle accents and dialects?** Yes. Lithuanian regional variations, heavy Russian-speaker Lithuanian accents, non-native English speakers - all handled in testing and production. ## Integrations **Which CRMs does AInora integrate with?** ClinicCards, Alteg, Dantis.lt, Foxus, Monday.com, HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM, ActiveCampaign, Close, Freshsales, Opera PMS, Mews, Cloudbeds, and any CRM, PMS, POS, or calendar system with an API. Custom integrations for proprietary systems on request. **What if our CRM does not have an API?** We offer supervised sync workflows: the AI takes the booking and emails/SMSes a confirmation to staff, who click to approve it into the legacy system. Alternatively, we maintain a parallel scheduling layer that syncs periodically. **Does AInora work with Google Calendar / Outlook?** Yes. Direct calendar integration for businesses that book appointments directly into a shared team calendar. **Can AInora send SMS confirmations?** Yes. Automatic SMS confirmations, reminders (24h and 2h before), and follow-ups in the caller's language. Reduces no-shows by 30-40%. **Does AInora email summaries to staff?** Yes. After every call, staff receive an email with: caller name, phone, reason for call, outcome, booking details (if applicable), full transcript, and a link to the audio recording. **Can AInora write to our ticketing or dispatch system?** Yes. Common targets: Zendesk, Freshdesk, Intercom, Jira Service Desk, and custom dispatch systems. ## Security & Compliance **Is AInora GDPR-compliant?** Yes. All call recordings, transcripts, and customer data are processed in EU data centers with full GDPR controls (right to erasure, data minimization, lawful basis, consent language at call start). **Where is caller data stored?** EU data residency by default. US-based clients can opt for US data residency. All data encrypted at rest and in transit. **Does AInora comply with the EU AI Act?** Yes. Article 50 disclosure is built into every greeting (the AI identifies itself as a digital assistant at the start of every call), which satisfies the transparency obligation for AI systems interacting with humans. **Is AInora FDCPA-compliant for US debt collection?** Yes. Our debt collection product enforces FDCPA time-of-day rules (no calls before 8am or after 9pm in debtor's local time), mini-Miranda statements, cease-and-desist handling, dispute routing, and right-to-validation notices at the script level - not trusted to individual humans. **Who can access our call recordings?** Only you and AInora engineers on the specific account. We sign DPAs and can arrange additional access controls on request. **Can callers request their data be deleted?** Yes. We support right-to-erasure requests end-to-end, including deletion from transcription logs. ## Debt Collection Specific **Is AI legal for debt collection in the US?** Yes, with FDCPA compliance. AInora's debt collection product is built with FDCPA at the script level: right-party contact verification, mini-Miranda on initial contact, no third-party disclosure, time-of-day enforcement, cease-and-desist handling, right-to-validation notice. **Is AI legal for debt collection in the EU / Lithuania?** Yes, with GDPR and Lithuanian Civil Code compliance. We enforce call recording consent language, data minimization, and audit-grade transcripts for every interaction. **Can the AI negotiate payment plans?** Yes, within pre-approved ranges. You set the payment plan matrix (e.g., "up to 12 months, no interest if paid within 6 months, 25% minimum upfront"), and the AI negotiates within those boundaries, capturing the commitment and logging the promise to pay. **What happens if a debtor claims hardship?** The AI listens for hardship indicators, follows your approved hardship protocol, and routes to a human specialist where required. The handoff includes full context and the transcript so far. **What happens on a cease-and-desist?** The AI detects explicit cease-and-desist language and immediately stops all further contact on that account, logging the timestamp for audit. No further calls are made to that account until your compliance team reviews. ## Industries **Does AInora work for dental clinics?** Yes. Live demo: +370 5 200 2619 (LT) or +1 (518) 241-8125 (EN).

The AI greets the caller in their detected language, listens, conducts the conversation, and either books/resolves the request or transfers to a human - all in under 3 minutes on average. **Does the AI sound like a real person?** Yes. Most callers do not realize it is AI unless told. We recommend transparent disclosure at call start ("I am a digital assistant") for compliance and because callers respond positively when they know. **Can the AI handle multiple simultaneous calls?** Yes. Unlimited concurrent calls with no degradation in quality or speed. A human receptionist handles one call at a time; the AI handles 100 simultaneous calls the same as 1. **What happens if the AI does not know an answer?** It gracefully admits it does not know, takes the caller's details, creates a callback task, and transfers to a human during business hours if needed. It never hallucinates answers. **How does the AI know our business-specific information?** We build a knowledge base from your FAQs, service menu, pricing, staff schedules, and documents. The AI retrieves answers from this knowledge base in real time during calls. **Can we listen to or review calls?** Yes. Every call is transcribed and recorded (with caller consent). You get a dashboard with full history, search, filters, and audio playback. **Can we change the AI's behavior after launch?** Yes. We iterate on prompts, knowledge base, and edge case handling based on listening to real calls in the first 2-4 weeks. Ongoing refinement is included. ## Comparisons **How is AInora different from Bland AI, Retell AI, or Vapi?** Those are developer platforms that give you raw voice infrastructure - you or your developers build everything on top. AInora is a finished product with named agents, CRM integrations, EU data residency, and Baltic/EU language fluency. See https://ainora.lt/compare/bland-ai for a full comparison. **How is AInora different from Smith.ai or Ruby?** Smith.ai and Ruby use human receptionists with some AI assist, priced at $97-350/month with per-call overages. AInora is pure AI at a fraction of the cost, with unlimited concurrent calls and Baltic language support. See https://ainora.lt/compare/smith-ai. **How is AInora different from Goodcall or Dialzara?** Those are English-first US products with no Baltic language support and limited CRM integration depth. AInora speaks Lithuanian, Latvian, Estonian, Russian, Polish natively and integrates with local PMS/CRM systems. See https://ainora.lt/compare/goodcall. **How is AInora different from a chatbot?** Chatbots live in browsers and handle text. AInora handles voice calls - the primary channel for most service businesses. Chatbots cannot answer a ringing phone at 9 PM or book an appointment with a specific specialist after checking availability. **How is AInora different from a call center?** A call center has humans; AInora has AI. Call centers charge per-minute or per-call and struggle with multilingual niche industries (dental, legal, veterinary). AInora handles the niche at a fraction of the cost. **Why not just hire another receptionist?** Another human receptionist costs EUR 25,000+/year, covers only scheduled hours, takes vacation and sick leave, and does not scale during peak volume. AInora covers 24/7 with unlimited concurrency at a fraction of the cost. --- ## About AInora AINORA, MB (ainora.lt) builds AI voice agents and digital administrators for service businesses in Lithuania and across Europe.
