Does AI Answering replace our front desk?+
Bosseo’s public description says every call goes to your team first and the AI steps in when nobody answers within 20 seconds. It presents the system as a backstop for missed, after-hours, holiday and overflow calls, not as a stated replacement for your staff.
What information can the system capture?+
Bosseo says the AI guides callers through their situation and captures case type, timeline and contact details. Its public description also includes a transcript, case summary and caller information after the call. Your firm should approve the questions and boundaries before using the system.
How many simultaneous calls does Bosseo describe?+
Bosseo’s public AI Answering page states that the system handles up to 20 simultaneous calls. That is a published product description, not a prediction of your firm’s call volume or a guarantee about a particular configuration.
What happens to an unanswered call?+
The published setup says your team gets the first ring. If nobody answers within 20 seconds, the AI picks up, greets the caller and gathers the configured information. Bosseo says the resulting transcript, summary and caller information can be delivered to an inbox or case-management system.
Can the system handle current-client calls?+
Bosseo says calls are classified as Potential New Client, Current Client or Other. Your firm still needs to define what a current-client caller should be told, who owns the follow-up and when a matter is escalated.
How should a Folsom firm evaluate this before booking?+
Use the consultation to review your actual phone route, Delaware County service boundary, practice-area questions, forwarding rule, record destination, escalation ownership and measurement plan. The Folsom population estimate should remain context only; it does not establish demand or expected results.
