Your phone is your front door. When nobody answers, you never know what you missed — and neither does the caller.
When you miss a call, you lose the conversation entirely. Most callers won't try again — they'll move on before you even see the notification.
Who called? What did they need? Without an answer, you're left wondering. Lobby makes sure you always know exactly who called and why.
Calls come in evenings, weekends, and holidays. Lobby is always available — capturing every conversation and summarizing it so you never start the day behind.
Four steps. Completely automatic.
Lobby answers immediately, in your business name, with a warm and professional greeting. No hold music. No voicemail box.
Lobby has a real conversation — gathering the details that matter for your specific business. No robotic menus. No scripts that feel like scripts.
Every important detail is extracted and organized automatically — name, reason for call, contact info, and anything else your business needs to know.
You receive a clear, concise summary by email within seconds. Know exactly who called and why — without listening to a single recording.
Every call Lobby answers lands here — caller details, reason for calling, and AI-extracted lead data, ready to review.

Available 24/7, Lobby has a real, flowing conversation with every caller — not a robotic menu. Whether you’re with a client or closed for the night, nobody reaches voicemail.
Tell Lobby what matters to your business — service type, location, urgency, budget — and it asks every caller. Every summary lands in your inbox already ready for follow-up.
Your portal logs every conversation with a full transcript, contact details, and outcome tag. Search by caller, date, or result — no lead ever falls through the cracks again.
Lobby automatically identifies telemarketers, robocalls, and solicitors and tags them separately. Your log stays clean so real opportunities are never buried under junk.
I've worked with dozens of small businesses — roofing companies, law firms, contractors — and the pattern was always the same. They'd hustle all day, miss a few calls, and never know what they lost. A great roofer shouldn't have to choose between climbing a ladder and answering the phone.
I wanted something that sounded human, fit into the way these businesses already work, and didn't require an IT team to set up. Lobby is what I'd want if I were running a service business — a reliable, professional first impression on every call, delivered instantly to my inbox.
"Every call is someone who chose your number. They deserve to be heard."
Straight answers. No fluff.
No. We answer phone calls, not Congress. Lobby is named after the place where good first impressions happen — not the ones in Washington. We have zero political opinions and infinite availability on weekends.
Lobby is an AI receptionist. It sounds natural and professional — not robotic, not scripted. If a caller asks whether they’re speaking with AI, Lobby says so honestly. What callers care about is being heard and helped quickly, and that’s what Lobby delivers.
Fast. Sign up, give your receptionist a name and a few details about your business, and you're live. Most people are set up and testing real calls in under 1 minute — no waiting on anyone else.
Caller's name, number, reason for calling, and anything specific you told Lobby to capture — service type, address, urgency, whatever your business actually needs. You decide what gets collected; Lobby works it naturally into every conversation.
It takes a message and makes sure you know. Lobby isn't trying to replace your judgment — it's making sure nothing slips through while you're busy. If a call needs you, you'll hear about it.
Completely. Your greeting, your tone, your questions. Lobby sounds like your business — not a generic AI assistant. You can update it any time from your portal.
Yes. Most businesses just forward calls to Lobby when they can't answer — nothing about your existing number or phone system needs to change.
Lobby doesn't clock out. Same natural conversation, same summaries — whether it's 2pm Tuesday or 11pm Saturday. You'll wake up knowing exactly who called and what they needed.
Any business that takes inbound calls. Roofing, HVAC, legal, medical, real estate, restaurants, contractors — if you have a phone and customers who call it, Lobby can handle it.
