I Changed My Mind About AI Voice Agents

I used to be sceptical about selling AI receptionists. After building and testing an AI voice agent for ORYX, my view started to change. In this video, I explain what changed, demonstrate a conversation with the agent, and share why testing, reviewing calls and improving the prompt matter just as much as the initial build. We cover AI voice agents, AI receptionists for trade businesses, qualifying enquiries, connecting voice models through APIs, and the ongoing work behind a useful business automation. The phone conversation is an edited test call: I am playing the customer. It is not a customer testimonial or evidence of a real booking. The graphics illustrate the process rather than measured performance.
