AI voice agents for schools

Mornings bring a wave of absence calls. Admissions season brings questions the office can’t always get to. Your AI voice agent answers every call, records absences, answers routine questions from your approved information and routes the rest to the right person.

No credit card required. Cancel anytime.

The front office, without the phone backlog

Handles the morning rush

Every absence call answered at once — no busy signals, no full voicemail box.

Answers from approved information

Bell times, calendars, closures, forms and programs — only what you’ve approved.

Routes what matters

Safety concerns, staff messages and complex questions go straight to the people you designate.

What your AI voice agent handles

High-volume, routine calls — answered the same careful way every time.

  • Absence and late-arrival reporting
  • Admissions and enrollment enquiries
  • Tour booking for prospective families
  • Bell times, calendar and closure questions
  • Transportation questions routed to the right office
  • Messages for teachers and staff
  • After-hours calls taken for the next school day
  • Overflow during the busiest times of year

What it never does

It doesn’t discuss a student’s records, grades or health information — those requests go to staff. Safety concerns are routed immediately to the people you choose, and callers describing an emergency are told to call 911.

How an admissions call sounds

A sample conversation. Actual calls vary by school and configuration.

Sample call · Riverside Academy (example school)
  1. AI receptionistThank you for calling Riverside Academy. I’m the school’s AI assistant. How can I help?
  2. CallerHi, we’re thinking about Grade 3 for next fall. Do you offer tours?
  3. AI receptionistWe do. Tours run Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9:30. Would either of the next two work for you?
  4. CallerThursday, please.
  5. AI receptionistYou’re booked for Thursday at 9:30. May I have your name, email and your child’s current grade? I’ll text you the visitor parking details too.

Student information stays protected

Schools handle student information under laws such as FERPA in the United States and provincial privacy legislation in Canada. Your agent collects only what each call needs.

Data is stored in the United States or Canada — your choice. Access to recordings is limited to authorized staff and every access is logged. Call data is never used to train models.

Works with the systems your school runs on

Your district or school admin authorizes each connection — no vendor partnership needed.

School FAQs

Can parents report absences to the AI voice agent?
Yes. It confirms the student’s name and grade, records the reason and expected return, and sends the details to your attendance office. See the AI school attendance line.
Will it record absences in our student information system?
It can, if your SIS offers an open API your district authorizes — PowerSchool, Aeries and Veracross do. Otherwise absences arrive as a daily list by email, ready to enter.
Can it handle admissions enquiries and tour bookings?
Yes. It answers questions from your approved information, books tours into your calendar and sends the family’s details to admissions.
How does it handle safety concerns?
Calls about a student’s safety are routed immediately to the staff you designate, with the caller’s words passed along. Anyone describing an emergency is told to call 911.
Does it share information about students?
No. It doesn’t discuss grades, records or health information. Those requests are passed to staff, who can verify the caller.
Can it speak with families in other languages?
Multiple languages are included at no extra cost. Tell us which languages your families speak during setup.
What does it cost for a school?
$0.75 USD per conversation minute, billed by the second, with no setup fee or contract. A busy morning attendance line at 300 short calls a month is about $338.
How long does setup take?
About five business days, including your call flows, routing rules and testing. You can try it free for 7 days.
