1. Decide what “answered” means for your Bethel practice
Bosseo describes AI Answering as 24/7 coverage for calls your team cannot answer, including nights, weekends, holidays, and overflow. The stated routing model gives your team the first ring; the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. That creates a concrete operating decision for a Bethel firm: identify the calls that should remain with staff and the calls that may safely move to an automated intake conversation.
Recommended approach
Map your current phone path by business hours, lunch periods, meetings, holidays, and simultaneous calls. Then decide whether a 20-second fallback is appropriate for each line and practice area.
