What the platform does
When a customer calls a business that has set up AnswerCare:
The call is forwarded from the business's main line to a Twilio number provisioned for that business
Retell's LLM-based voice agent answers within 2 seconds using a custom configuration written for that business
The agent collects caller information, qualifies the request, and schedules an appointment if applicable
The booking is automatically created in the business's connected calendar
The business owner receives an SMS notification with the booking details
A full call transcript and recording is stored in the customer dashboard
