AI Voice Assistant Self-Assessment
Is a voice agent right for your business?
A diagnostic checklist to evaluate whether an AI voice agent will recover enough missed leads to justify the setup cost. Trade businesses, clinics, and contractors typically see the fastest payback.

| Priority | Signal | What it means | How to evaluate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alta | Clients call your business before booking or buying — the phone is the primary first contact | If leads come by phone, a missed call is a missed lead — the voice agent ensures every call is answered | Check your last 30 enquiries — what percentage came by phone? |
| Alta | You miss calls outside business hours or during busy periods | Every unanswered call is a lead that goes to the next result on Google — the voice agent answers 24/7 | Check your voicemail — how many messages per week come in after hours? |
| Alta | Callers frequently ask the same questions (hours, pricing, location, process) | The voice agent handles these without involving staff — and books the next step automatically | Review your last 20 voicemails or call logs for repeated question patterns |
| Alta | You receive 5 or more inbound calls per week | Below this volume the usage cost ($0.27/min) and setup fee will take too long to recover — chatbot may be a better fit | Pull call log data from your phone system for the last 30 days |
| Alta | You run a trade or service business where emergency or urgent calls are common | The voice agent can triage urgency, book appointments, and escalate true emergencies to a human immediately | Estimate what percentage of your calls are urgent vs standard enquiries |
| Media | Your average deal value is above $500 | A single recovered lead typically covers several months of usage cost at this deal value | Calculate average revenue per booked client |
| Media | You have a calendar system connected to your booking process | The voice agent books appointments during the call — it needs a live calendar to check availability | Confirm what calendar or scheduling system your business uses |
| Media | Your staff spend significant time answering routine calls instead of doing billable work | The voice agent frees staff from routine call handling — the time saving alone can justify the cost | Estimate hours per week your team spends on inbound calls that could be automated |
| Bassa | You have had complaints about long hold times or missed calls | This signals an existing problem the voice agent directly solves — with a paper trail for the ROI conversation | Check Google reviews or client feedback for any mention of call experience |
