Step 1 - Up in 24 hours
AI receptionist that answers calls and transfers to departments or individuals by name.
Garda AI Voice is the AI receptionist built for real estate agents and brokers. It qualifies buyer and seller calls, looks callers up in Follow Up Boss, and hands off to your agents — fully briefed — before they say hello.
Answers instantly, 24/7. No hold time, no voicemail. Every lead gets a knowledgeable response on the first ring — nights, weekends, holidays included.
Garda AI asks the right questions naturally, scores intent in real time, and pulls the caller's Follow Up Boss record — name, stage, and prior notes — before the live handoff.
A Slack brief lands with your agent before they pick up: caller name, inquiry type, funnel stage, prior notes. "Hey Mark, I see you're interested in the 3-bed on Oak Street."
Every call is logged to Follow Up Boss automatically — stage updated, notes written, disposition recorded. Your pipeline stays complete without anyone touching a keyboard.
Garda cross-references your Follow Up Boss database the moment a call connects. It already knows whether you're speaking to a hot buyer, a past seller, or a new referral — and qualifies them accordingly. After the call, notes, stage updates, and dispositions are written back automatically.
When a call needs a live agent, Garda fires a Slack message to the right person before the transfer connects — caller name, what they want, their pipeline stage, and any prior notes. Your agent picks up already knowing who they're talking to and why they called.
Every call answered instantly, regardless of hour. Leads that used to go to voicemail now enter your pipeline.
Full Follow Up Boss context before they say hello. Agents close more because they start every call already knowing who's on the line and why they called.
Every call auto-logged. Notes written, stages updated, dispositions recorded — with no one at a keyboard.
Garda AI Voice vs. Other AI Receptionists
Generic AI tools field calls and take messages. Garda knows who's calling before the first word, qualifies intent in real time, briefs your agent before they pick up, and auto-logs everything to your CRM — with zero human intervention. That's not a receptionist. That's a revenue system.
| Capability | Other AI Receptionists | Garda AI Voice |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-built templates for real estate | Generic scripting — you configure everything from scratch | Buyer, seller, referral, vendor, contract, listing & lease flows are pre-wired |
| CRM context before answering | Caller is always a stranger — AI learns who they are only if they volunteer it | Pulls the caller's CRM record before the first word — Garda already knows their name, stage & history |
| Lead qualification | Static intake script or menu-driven prompts | Dynamic questions that adapt to caller intent, prior CRM activity, and deal stage in real time |
| Call routing logic | Fixed phone tree or simple keyword matching | AI scores intent AND urgency, routes to the right agent by name, department, or priority |
| Agent handoff | Cold transfer — agent picks up with zero context | Warm handoff: agent gets a Slack brief — name, need, CRM stage, prior notes — before they say hello |
| CRM logging | Transcript emailed after the call — someone still has to copy it in | Auto-writes structured notes, updates pipeline stage & records disposition directly in your CRM |
| Workflow customization | Template-locked or requires a developer to change routing logic | Visual no-code Workflow Builder — define exactly how your team works, no dev required |
| Learns from your business | One-size-fits-all out of the box, static forever | Phase 2 onboarding uses recordings of your own receptionist to tune Garda to your team's exact style |
| Go-live speed | Days to weeks of configuration, testing & QA | Live in 24 hours — immediate coverage from day one |
| Pricing model | Per-call or per-minute billing — costs spike when business picks up | Flat monthly rate with 3,000–9,000 minutes included — no surprise bills, ever |
"Other tools transfer the call. Garda transfers the context."
Before your agent picks up, they already know the caller's name, what they want, where they are in the pipeline, and what happened last time. The first word out of your agent's mouth can be: "Hey Sarah, I see you're still looking at the Oak Street listing."
"The difference between knowing and guessing."
Every other AI receptionist treats every caller like a stranger and asks them to identify themselves. Garda cross-references your Follow Up Boss database the moment the call connects — hot buyer, cold lead, or repeat vendor, it already knows.
"The pipeline that fills itself."
The average agent spends 30–45 minutes a day updating their CRM from call notes. With Garda, that number is zero. Every call is automatically transcribed, summarized, staged, and logged — whether it's a 45-second vendor call or a 12-minute buyer qualification.

One closed transaction covers months of service. If this captures one after-hours lead per month that would have gone to voicemail, it pays for itself many times over.
