Meet Maria.

Maria sounds warm and natural. Most callers simply feel taken care of. You decide exactly how she introduces herself and answers in your company’s name.

Yes. Keep your existing number. Set up takes just a few minutes, no porting headaches.

She can warm-transfer the call to you live, take a detailed message, or text you right away, so you’re never out of the loop.

Minutes. Connect your Google listing, pick a voice, name her, and Maria’s ready. Free for 7 days with unlimited minutes.

Maria never stops answering. Past your plan’s minutes it’s just a few cents a minute ($0.25 on Starter, $0.20 on Pro, $0.15 on Business), and we text you before it happens. No surprises, ever.

Absolutely. You control when calls forward to Maria: all the time, after hours, when you don’t pick up, or only while you’re on a job. Many owners start with after-hours and nights.

Yes and yes. No contracts. Cancel whenever you like, and move between Starter, Pro, and Business anytime as your call volume changes. Satisfaction guaranteed.

On Pro and up, yes: she books appointments straight into your calendar, reschedules or cancels when callers need to change, and texts your customer a confirmation plus a reminder the day of.

Sí, and a lot more. On every plan, in any of her voices, Maria is fluent in ten languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Hindi and Japanese. She detects the caller’s language automatically and switches to it mid-call, speaking each one naturally, with no setup and no phone menus.

Every call is summarized and transcribed word for word, and you can read any of them right from your dashboard, plus instant text alerts for the calls that need you now. We do not record audio. The written transcript is the record, and it is the more accurate of the two.

The big services charge $1–$2+ a minute for rotating operators reading a generic script, with hold times. Maria answers instantly, 24/7, trained on your business, for a flat monthly price that works out to about a tenth of theirs.

Maria Answers is $49, $149 or $299 a month, and every plan includes the minutes: 250 on Starter, 1,000 on Pro, 2,500 on Business. That works out to roughly $0.20, $0.15 and $0.12 a minute all-in. A traditional live answering service is typically billed at $1–$2+ per minute on top of a monthly base, so a few hundred minutes there costs more than a whole year of Maria on Starter. There is no setup fee and no contract, and paying yearly gets you two months free.

Yes, and that is the whole product. Maria picks up on the first ring 24/7, answers in your company’s name, explains your services, prices and hours, qualifies the caller, books the job on your calendar, and texts you the details, all from a phone number you already own. She trains herself from your Google listing and website in a few minutes, and she handles several calls at once, so nobody gets a busy signal.

They fail in different places. A human service uses rotating operators who read a generic script, put callers on hold at busy times, and bill $1–$2+ a minute. Maria answers instantly with no hold, knows your actual services and pricing because she is trained on your business, takes several calls at the same time, works nights and weekends at the same rate, and speaks ten languages. What a human still does better is an unusual, emotional or highly unscripted call, which is why Maria warm-transfers to you live, or texts you on the spot, instead of guessing.

Look for four things: it answers 24/7 including nights and weekends, it books straight onto your calendar, it knows your real services and pricing instead of reading a script, and it prices in flat monthly plans rather than per minute. Maria Answers is built for exactly that: $49–$299 a month with 250–2,500 minutes included, trained on your own Google listing, booking into Google Calendar or Outlook, texting you every call, and free for 7 days with unlimited minutes so you can hear her on your real calls before paying.

Enough that it is usually the cheapest problem a small business can fix. Every missed call at a trade business is a caller who dials the next name on the list, and most people who reach voicemail do not leave a message. Maria answers every call on the first ring, day or night, including the ones that come in while you are already on the phone or under a sink. That is why owners tend to start her on after-hours and overflow before moving her to the main line.
