Description
The Call Now” button that answers itself.
Adding a Click to Call” button to your site is great for customers, but terrible for you. It means your phone rings during dinner, spam calls flood your line, and you miss leads when you sleep.
Babelbeez is the Smart Call Button.
It adds a beautiful Floating Contact Button (Sticky Button) to your site. When a customer clicks it, they don’t open a phone dialer. Instead, they speak directly to an AI voice agent right in their browser. The AI answers their questions, qualifies the lead, and sends you a summary.
Your customer gets to talk. You get to sleep.
Why replace your old Call Button?
- No Phone Bill: Uses browser-based audio instead of a phone line. No carrier fees, no SIP trunks, no international calling costs.
- Less Spam: Since it’s not a phone number, robo-dialers can’t call it directly.
- Instant Answers: The AI can be trained on your website content so it knows your hours, pricing, and services.
- Zero Per-Seat Fees: Unlike Live Chat” tools that charge per agent, billing is based on usage/minutes, not per‑user seats.
Key Features
- Native Speech‑to‑Speech: Real-time, conversational AI voice for natural, low-latency conversations.
- Floating Widget: A clean, mobile‑responsive sticky button that stays visible as users scroll.
- Works on Mobile: Designed for visitors who hate typing on tiny screens.
- Human Handoff: If the AI can’t help, it captures the user’s details and emails you so you never lose a lead.
- Multilingual: Automatically detects the visitor’s language and responds in kind.
- Automatic Chat Summaries: Quickly review summaries of every interaction.
- Secure Transport: Conversations are encrypted in transit over HTTPS/WSS between your site, Babelbeez, and OpenAI.
How It Works
- Create: Sign up at Babelbeez.com.
- Train: Paste your website link—and optionally upload PDFs—to build your agent’s knowledge.
