AutomateNexus Voice Launches AI-Powered Virtual Receptionist to Help Small Businesses Capture Every Lead
Seattle-based veteran-owned startup introduces 24/7 AI phone answering service for small and mid-sized businesses
Seattle, WA, Jan. 16, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AutomateNexus Voice, a new SaaS product from veteran-owned AI automation consultancy AutomateNexus, is launching an AI-powered virtual receptionist platform designed to eliminate missed calls for small and mid-sized businesses. The platform answers inbound calls 24/7, qualifies leads in real-time, and books appointments directly to business calendars—all without human intervention.
Erin Moore, Founder of AutomateNexus Voice, a 24/7 AI-powered virtual receptionist platform for small businesses.
The Problem: Missed Calls Cost SMBs $50,000+ Annually
Research shows that 62% of business calls go unanswered, with each missed call representing potential revenue loss. For service-based businesses in dental, healthcare, real estate, legal, and home services, this translates to an estimated $50,000 or more in lost annual revenue. Traditional solutions—hiring receptionists or after-hours call centers—are expensive and inconsistent.
The Solution: AI That Answers Before the Second Ring
AutomateNexus Voice deploys conversational AI voice agents that respond in under one second, qualify callers using customizable scripts, and schedule appointments through direct integration with Google Calendar, Outlook, and Cal.com. The platform supports 32+ languages with automatic detection, enabling businesses to serve diverse customer bases without additional staffing.
"Small business owners shouldn't have to choose between missing calls and hiring expensive staff," said Erin Moore, founder and CEO of AutomateNexus Voice and a U.S. Army veteran. "We built this platform to give every business access to enterprise-level call handling at a fraction of the cost. Our AI doesn't take sick days, doesn't put callers on hold, and never sends a hot lead to voicemail."
Moore, who holds an MS, MBA, and Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification, founded AutomateNexus as an AI automation consultancy helping businesses streamline operations and eliminate inefficiencies. AutomateNexus Voice extends that expertise into a scalable SaaS product designed for SMBs seeking immediate ROI.
