An AI receptionist that works across multiple channels is typically called an omnichannel AI receptionist or virtual receptionist.
It can handle interactions through channels like:
- Phone calls
- SMS/text
- Website chat
- Social media messages like Facebook Messenger or Instagram, depending on the platform
If you’re looking for specific products, popular options include:
- Smith.ai
- Lindy
- Air.ai
- PolyAI (often used for voice)
- Intercom / Zendesk AI for chat-focused setups
