Coulee Region calls,
answered on the river.

Voxgard is an AI receptionist that answers La Crosse business calls on your 608 number in about 0.3 seconds, around the clock, and books them into your calendar. La Crosse sits on the Mississippi below the bluffs, on Central Time, and its customers live in Onalaska, Holmen, West Salem and across the bridge in La Crescent, Minnesota. Voxgard asks for the ZIP, then the street, and checks the distance from your base, so the state line does not trip it up. The city has three colleges and a large medical sector, which means shift workers and students calling at all hours. Summer on the river and Oktoberfest in the fall keep restaurants, hotels and marinas busy. The AI speaks 32 languages, including Spanish, and keeps a recording, transcript and summary of each call. Plans start at $249 a month, and the free five-day pilot runs on your real calls with no credit card.

What La Crosse means
for your phone line.

The river sets the seasons

Spring high water on the Mississippi brings basement and sump pump calls, and summer brings boaters, anglers and visitors who phone restaurants and rentals.

Hospital shift workers

Nurses and staff at the city’s big medical centers keep odd hours. They can call a salon, dentist or repair shop at 6 a.m. and still get booked.

Oktoberfest weekend

Each fall the festival fills downtown, and hotels, bars and caterers take far more calls than usual. The AI answers every one from your own information.

Yes. Forward your 608 line to Voxgard or port it over, and nothing changes for your callers.

Yes. It checks the address by distance from your base, not by state, and tells the caller whether you cover them.

It answers questions about rates, parking and dates from what you load, and takes details for your team. It does not take card payments on the call.

It books appointments and takes messages, and never gives medical advice. Voxgard has not completed HIPAA certification; see the security page for how data is protected.
