Black Hills calls,
answered in peak season.
An AI receptionist for a Rapid City business answers your 605 number in about 0.3 seconds, day or night, and takes the booking before the caller hangs up. Summer is the hard part. Visitors headed for Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park and Keystone call lodges, tour outfits and repair shops at all hours, and the Sturgis rally in August fills every line in the Black Hills. Voxgard can take three calls at once on Standard and has no limit on Enterprise. For home service companies it asks the ZIP, then the address, and checks whether Box Elder or Hill City is inside your range. It answers in any of 32 languages, which helps with visitors from abroad. Every call is recorded, transcribed and summarized in your dashboard. The city is on Mountain Time, an hour behind Sioux Falls. Plans start at $249 a month, and the free five-day pilot runs on your real calls without a credit card.

What Rapid City means
for your phone line.
Tourist season
From Memorial Day into fall, lodging, tour and rental businesses take calls from travelers in other time zones, many after your office has closed.
Rally week
The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in August brings a flood of calls for rooms, repairs, towing and detailing. Callers get an answer instead of a busy signal.
Ellsworth families
Airmen at Ellsworth Air Force Base in Box Elder move on orders, which keeps movers, cleaners and property managers on the phone.
