The AI Receptionist Built for GCC Businesses
Alonah answers WhatsApp messages — text and voice notes — in native Arabic and English, books appointments straight into your calendar, and collects deposits — so no enquiry ever goes unanswered.
One AI receptionist, every channel

AI receptionist — common questions
What exactly is an AI receptionist?
Software that answers WhatsApp messages (text and voice notes) like a trained receptionist — qualifying enquiries, checking real availability, booking appointments, and collecting deposits, without a human on every conversation.
Does it replace my front-desk staff?
No — it handles the repetitive volume (FAQs, bookings, reminders) and hands off anything complex, sensitive, or an explicit request to a human straight to your team on WhatsApp.
Which languages does it speak?
Native Arabic and English, switching automatically to match the customer, over WhatsApp text and voice notes.
Is it compliant with GCC data rules?
Data is hosted on AWS Bahrain for GCC data residency, aligned with UAE TDRA and Saudi NDMO regulations. Customer data is never used to train AI models.
How much does an AI receptionist cost?
Pricing is per branch, per month, with WhatsApp conversation costs bundled in up to fair-use limits. See the pricing page for the full breakdown by tier.
