We Pick Up So You Don't Have To
Auravoce started with one missed call too many. Today our voice agents answer millions of minutes a month for clinics, trades and agencies across 14 countries.
Born in a plumber's voicemail inbox
In late 2024 our founder Michael audited the phone line at his father's plumbing business in Austin. 41% of calls went to voicemail. Fewer than one in ten callers left a message. The rest simply called the next plumber.
The fix wasn't another answering service reading from a script. It was an agent that knew the business — prices, service areas, what counts as an emergency — and could book a job on the spot. We built it, forwarded the line, and bookings rose 38% in the first month. Auravoce was born.
Principles that shape every call
Honest by default
The agent says it's an AI, never invents answers, and hands off to a human the moment that's the better outcome for the caller.
Speed is respect
Nobody should wait on hold to ask about opening hours. We obsess over sub-second response time and zero-ring pickup.
Built for small teams
Enterprise-grade voice AI shouldn't need an enterprise budget or an IT department. Set-up takes 15 minutes, not 15 weeks.
