Ahoya

The AI receptionist alternative to Google Voice

Google Voice is great for a second number with voicemail and forwarding, but it doesn't answer calls — missed calls still go to a voicemail most callers won't leave. An AI receptionist picks up every call, answers questions, books appointments, and follows up by text, so the call turns into a customer instead of a voicemail.

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep my Google Voice number?

Yes — you can forward your existing number (Google Voice or any line) to Ahoya, so calls you can't take are answered instead of going to voicemail.

What does an AI receptionist do that Google Voice doesn't?

It actually answers and handles the call — questions, booking, lead capture, and a text follow-up — rather than only taking a voicemail.
