AI receptionists are going mainstream — in Canada too
Even Yellow Pages launched its own AI Receptionist in September 2026 — "helping Canadian businesses stay connected to their customers, ensuring they never miss an opportunity."
19.2% of Canadian businesses used AI in the past 12 months — triple the share from two years earlier.
TELUS now bundles an AI Receptionist into its business phone platform for Canadian companies.
How it works
24/7, in English or French — even mid-procedure, even after hours, even on holidays.
She captures the caller's name and phone number and understands what they need.
Appointments go straight into your calendar. Urgent matters get a detailed message, never a cold transfer.
No new number needed
Emma doesn't replace your phone — she backs it up. Your business number stays exactly the same, and your phone rings exactly as it does today.
She only answers what you'd otherwise miss: the after-hours call, the second line ringing while you're with a customer, the Saturday morning booking request.
Setup is conditional call forwarding through your carrier — a few minutes, once. Your callers notice nothing. You notice the calls you used to lose.
Urgent calls
A no-heat call at 10 PM isn't a quote request — Emma knows the difference because you define your own urgent rules.
When a call matches them, she captures everything that matters — who's calling, what's happening, where, and how to reach them back — and flags it for you immediately.
She doesn't diagnose, doesn't dispatch, doesn't guess. And for true emergencies like fire or a gas leak, she tells the caller to hang up and call 911.
Urgent matters become structured messages with callback details. Never a cold transfer. Never a missed emergency.

Why Callhaven
Nights, weekends, holidays — every call gets a warm, professional answer. No more voicemail black holes.
She switches between English and French naturally, mid-conversation — no awkward menus, no "press 2 for French".
Real appointments, in real time — no double-booking, no phone tag.
Name, number, need — captured before you ever pick up the phone.
Urgent matters become structured messages with callback details. Never a cold transfer.
Live on your business line in days, not months. Start with a free 7-day pilot.
The real cost
40 calls a month find your business — ads, Google, word of mouth.
30% come when you can't pick up: after hours, mid-appointment, second line ringing. That's 12 calls.
Your average job: $400.
Miss just 8 of those 12: 8 × $400 = $3,200/month walking to the competitor who answered. That's $38,400 a year.
Your numbers will differ — plug in your own. The question stays the same: who's answering when you can't?
Your client dashboard
You get your own private dashboard. Every conversation Emma handles, with the recording and the full transcript. Every booking, on your calendar. Every caller, saved as a contact. No software to install, nothing new to learn.

FAQ
Yes — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including nights, weekends and holidays. That's the whole point: the calls you miss today are the customers you lose tomorrow.
Yes, fully bilingual. Emma detects the caller's language and switches naturally — even mid-conversation.
Emma takes a detailed message — name, number, and reason for the call — so you can call back immediately. No cold transfers, no lost emergencies.
We set up your AI receptionist on a trial line, free for 7 days. Your real callers keep reaching you as usual while you test everything. If you love it, it converts to your monthly plan.
No — it handles the calls your team can't get to: after hours, during rushes, mid-appointment. Your staff stays focused on the customer in front of them.

We never sell or share it — it's used only to run your phone service, and you can request access, correction or deletion at any time under Canadian privacy law. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.
Yes — it stays exactly as it is. We set up conditional call forwarding: your phone rings first, as always. Emma only picks up the calls you'd miss. Your callers notice nothing.
Emma answers in your business name with a natural voice — most callers never notice, and she never opens with "I'm a robot." If a caller asks her directly, she won't pretend to be human. What callers actually care about is getting helped fast — and that's what she does.
She's built not to guess. If she doesn't know an answer, she takes a detailed message instead of inventing one — name, number, and what the caller needs — so you can call back with the real answer. Every call also produces a short summary you can review. She's a safety net, not infallible: that's exactly why urgent matters become structured messages, never cold transfers.
