Real-time customer comms — built for local businesses

AI Customer Service that works the hours your team can't.

A huge share of customer calls come outside 9-to-5 hours, and most callers who hit voicemail just hang up and call your competitor. Forté's AI Customer Service Agent picks up web chat 24/7, after-hours phone calls, and SMS once A2P clears and captures your next lead prospect. Custom integrations to your booking or CRM software through our Flagship tier. 80% Handled Guarantee — backed by our money-back guarantee →

Try it yourself

This is a live agent — talk to it.

The chat on the right is a real AI Customer Service Agent, trained for a sample local business (Summit Home Services). It's the exact agent Forté would custom-build for your business. Ask it anything a customer would — or try one of these:

  • Answers service questions. Hours, service area, what it fixes, financing, maintenance plans.
  • Triages after-hours emergencies. "It’s 11pm and I have an emergency" — watch it jump into urgent mode.
  • Books the appointment. Collects the details and confirms a slot, day or night.
  • Captures the lead. Not ready to book? It grabs the contact + issue so no job slips away.

Prefer to hear it? Call or text the live agent.

Reach it like a customer would — call and say your AC just died, or text it to book. Same agent, either way.

Core Capability

24/7 Lead Capture & Qualification

Never miss a midnight inquiry again. Our agents engage, qualify, and segment leads in real time, integrating directly with your CRM.

Automated Scheduling

Calendar automation is built per engagement — we integrate with Google, Outlook, or your booking system so the agent can book based on your availability rules. Custom Flagship scope.

Smart Responses

Natural-language understanding that reads context and tone, providing human-like answers to complex FAQs instantly.

Omnichannel Presence

Web chat 24/7 + phone at launch. SMS comes online with A2P 10DLC approval. Configurable to pick up overflow during the day, after-hours, weekends, or any combination — backs up the front desk during peak hours and covers nights without an answering service. Customer email moves to the Personal Assistant — different cadence, different agent.
