After-hours answering
After-Hours Answering for Pet Groomers
The last dog goes home and the messages keep coming. Someone wants a slot tomorrow. Someone asks what a shih tzu costs. Your nevox.ai agent answers at night, on Sundays and on holidays, asks the right questions and books the time. In the morning you open a summary of what happened and what needs you.

Booked for 9:00 AM, full groom. I'll text you as soon as he's ready.

How after-hours answering works
Your agent stays on 24/7 on the channels you choose: SMS, phone, website chat, email and WhatsApp. When you close the shop, it keeps replying in seconds.
It answers using your website and the answers you add, so it never invents prices, hours or information. For a grooming request it asks breed and size, bath only or full groom, and whether pickup and drop-off are needed. Then it books the appointment.
Some messages should not wait for a bot. A pet with an injury or a health concern, or a complaint about a groom, gets handed to you. Everything else is waiting in a clean morning summary, so late-night leads do not drift to the shop down the street.
The questions that fill your evenings
Any grooming slots tomorrow? How much for a shih tzu? Do you offer pickup? When will my dog be ready? These arrive while you are eating dinner, and every one of them is a booking you do not want to lose.
Your agent handles them on the spot with the information you have given it. It collects breed, size and service type, so the time it books matches the work you actually have to do. That helps when prices change with breed, size and coat.
It will never ask for card numbers, passwords or documents, and it will not give medical advice about a pet. You get your evenings back and still open the morning with appointments on the book.

FAQ
Will it quote a price for a specific breed?
Only what you have given it. The agent answers from your website and the answers you add, and it never makes up prices. If a coat or size question falls outside that, it collects the details and leaves it for you.
What happens if someone writes about an injured pet at midnight?
That conversation is handed to you instead of being handled automatically. The same goes for complaints about a groom. The agent does not give medical advice.
Do I have to check messages all night?
No. The agent replies in seconds on the channels you choose and books appointments while you sleep. In the morning you get a summary of what happened and what needs your attention.
When does the agent hand off to the groomer?
In situations like "a pet with an injury or health concern" or "complaints about a groom", the AI doesn't handle it alone. The conversation comes to you along with the reason.
What happens to after-hours conversations?
The agent answers, qualifies and books. When you're back, the conversations that need you are flagged with the reason.
Do I need a credit card to try it?
No. You build and test your receptionist with no password and no card. You only pick a plan when you're ready to go live.
Can the AI make up a price?
No. It only repeats what's on your price list and never rounds. Anything not on the list becomes a booked estimate or consult.
How does the guarantee work?
Every plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee, and there's no contract. Cancel anytime.
