What is Tala Works?

Tala Works is a fully managed AI receptionist for Calgary service businesses and Alberta dispatch operators. An AI agent trained on your business answers every call 24/7 and books appointments into your calendar. This is a done-for-you service.

Why it matters

Every missed call is a missed customer

Service-business owners can't answer the phone while they work. The calls that go to voicemail rarely call back, they call the next business on Google.

How it works

Set up by us, run for you

2

We build & tune the AI

Greeting, call flows, booking rules and local Calgary context, all configured by us.

It answers 24/7, books appointments, and texts confirmations. No app to learn.

4

Human reviewed

Calls are regularly reviewed, the script refined, and the service audited and optimized.

More than booking

It knows your business, not just your calendar

This isn't a generic phone tree or IVR (Interactive Voice Response). We train an AI agent on your company information and services, it answers your callers' questions. And when a call needs a person, it reroutes to a human as a fallback, nobody gets stuck talking to a bot.

  • Answers questions about your services, hours, pricing and policies
  • Explains what you offer and what to expect
  • Captures the caller's details and books the appointment
  • Reroutes anything it can't handle to a human, so no caller is stuck
  • Kept up to date as your services, hours or pricing change
Local visibility

Get found on Google, then never miss the call

Most service businesses are invisible in local search — no reviews, an incomplete profile, and no one managing it. We set up and manage your Google Business Profile so customers find you first. And when they call, the AI answers.

  • Google Business Profile set up and fully optimized
  • Review strategy to build trust and ranking
  • Profile kept current — hours, services, photos
  • AI answers every call that comes in from search
  • Regularly audited and optimized for local ranking
  • Responds to reviews on your behalf

The payoff

What it's worth to your business

We don't sell software or features. We sell a phone that never costs you a customer. Here's where the return comes from.

🌙

Recover after-hours revenue

Most missed-call revenue is lost evenings and weekends. The AI books those callers while you're closed.

📞

Every caller reaches you

No voicemail, no busy signal. Every call is answered, every lead captured, every booking taken.

⏱️

Hours back in your day

Stop stopping work to answer the phone. Stay on the job while the AI handles the calls and the calendar.

A full-time receptionist costs roughly $2,500+ a month, works about a third of the hours, and can't cover nights or weekends. The bigger cost is the calls you miss today, one recovered booking can be worth more than a month of service.
FAQ

Questions Calgary owners ask

What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist answers your business phone, has a natural conversation with the caller, answers common questions, and books appointments into your calendar, 24/7. Tala Works is the fully managed version: we build, tune and monitor it for you.
How is Tala Works different from other AI receptionists in Calgary?
Most providers sell you software to set up and run yourself. Tala Works is a done-for-you managed service: we configure everything, tune it to your trade, and human reviewed calls. Regularly audited and optimized.
Is an AI receptionist worth it for a small business?
Almost always. The real comparison isn't another app, it's the revenue you lose every time a call goes to voicemail, plus the roughly $2,500+ a month a full-time receptionist costs for a fraction of the coverage. A single recovered job or booking usually covers a full month of service. We map the numbers for your business on a quick call.
Does it work after hours and on weekends?
Yes. It answers every call 24/7, including evenings, weekends and holidays, which is exactly when most missed-call revenue is lost.
Will callers know it's AI?
Most callers care about a fast, helpful answer, not whether a person or AI picked up. The greeting is customized to your business, and any call that needs a human is captured or routed so nobody waits.
Is my customer data handled responsibly?
Yes. Call handling runs on third-party voice infrastructure processed in the United States under a signed data-processing agreement, and the Tala Works platform is hosted on AWS Canada. Personal information is handled under Alberta's PIPA, with PIPEDA governing the cross-border US processing, described in our privacy policy. We do not make residency or certification claims we can't stand behind.
Can it answer questions about my business, not just book appointments?
Yes. We train it on your services, hours, policies and the questions your callers actually ask, so it answers them in your business's voice. Anything it isn't sure about, it reroutes to a human as a fallback, so no caller is left stuck with a bot.
What does it cost?
Pricing depends on your call volume and what you need, so we keep it to a quick conversation rather than a price grid. The comparison that matters: a full-time receptionist runs roughly $2,500+ a month for a third of the coverage, and one recovered booking can be worth more than a month of service.
