AI receptionist for Quebec businesses

What Cedri does on a project call

Cedri starts with the services it finds on your website or business listing, or with Discovery Call, Design Consultation and Project Kickoff if it finds none, so it can take a real booking on the very first call. Add, rename or remove services in the app any time.

Answers in English and French

Callers are answered in the language they speak, on the same line, with no menu to press through.

Books the job, not a message

Cedri reads your live availability and locks in a real slot before the caller hangs up.

Passes the call to you

When a caller asks for a person, Cedri can put the call through to a number you choose.

Texts the caller, and you

The caller gets a confirmation text when the booking is made and a reminder the day before. They can reply 2 to cancel. You get a text with their number and a short summary after every call.

What Cedri asks a caller before booking

A booking is only worth having when it arrives with the details. Before it books, Cedri asks what kind of work it is (design, photo or video), when the caller needs it, roughly how big the project is, and whether it is for a business or for personal use. The answers are written on the booking you see in the app.

Everything routes to a discovery call

A freelance line gets the same handful of questions in a different order every time: what do you do, what does it cost, how long will it take, how many revisions, can I see your work. The template answers all of them the same way, by booking the discovery call where those get settled properly. Scope decides the price and the schedule, so Cedri promises no timeline and says a price only when it finds one in your service list, your answers or your website. What you get is a booked call with the project described in the caller’s own words.

Revisions are a proposal term, not a phone answer

The seeded answer says revision terms are confirmed in the proposal before the project starts, which is where they can actually be agreed.

A portfolio request becomes a booking

Asked to see work, Cedri offers the discovery call so you can show the pieces that are actually relevant to that project.

An answering service for freelancers and studios that books the discovery call

A traditional answering service takes a message, often billed by the minute. Cedri answers every project call 24 hours a day, in English and French, and the discovery call is in your calendar before the caller hangs up. You keep your number: forward every call to Cedri, or only the ones you miss.

What callers ask, and what Cedri says

Here is some of what Cedri says from the very first call, before you change anything. These answers send questions about your licence, your insurance and your warranties to you. Cedri says a price only when it finds one in your service list, your answers or your website, so check those prices in the app before you go live. Edit any answer in the app.

A caller asks: “What services do you offer?”

Cedri answers: “Tell me a bit about your project and I’ll pass it along so the team can confirm it’s something they take on.”

A caller asks: “What are your rates?”

Cedri answers: “Rates depend on the scope of the project. The team quotes each one individually. I can book a discovery call so they can go over it with you.”

A caller asks: “How long does a typical project take?”

Cedri answers: “Timelines depend on the scope. The team gives you a realistic schedule once they’ve seen the brief.”

A caller asks: “What is your revision policy?”

Cedri answers: “Revision terms are part of the proposal. The team confirms them before the project starts.”

A caller asks: “Can I see examples of your work?”

Cedri answers: “Ask for examples on your discovery call. The team can share work that’s relevant to your project.”

A caller asks: “How do we get started?”

Cedri answers: “It starts with a discovery call to talk through your project, goals and budget. I can book that with you right now.”
