The problem

Missed calls are
silent revenue leaks.

Up to 40% of inbound calls go unanswered at small businesses — after hours, during busy periods, when staff are with customers. Each missed call costs real money.

Why Dao instead

Three ways to lose a call.
One way to never miss it.

The alternatives you already know — voicemail, a human front desk, or a phone system nobody picks up — all leak revenue. Here’s the mechanism that closes each gap.

Built for every front desk

One receptionist.
Every vertical.

Dao runs on a shared pod — one intelligent agent serves 5–10 businesses in your group, each with its own phone number, profile, hours, and services. Expansion means adding another agent, not re-engineering.

🦷

Dental & Medical

Appointments, emergency triage, insurance questions, recalls.

Anchor vertical
✨

Aesthetic Clinics

Consultations, treatment questions, membership plans. High-value calls, never missed.

🐾

Veterinary

Urgent care triage, vaccination bookings, boarding inquiries. Pet parents call at all hours.

💆

Spas & Wellness

Bookings, package upgrades, gift cards. Perfect English for international guests.

How it works

Live in minutes.
Zero hardware.

No apps to install, no phone system to replace. If you have a phone number, Dao can answer it.

Dial a short carrier code to forward your existing business number to your Dao line. That’s it — your customers still call the same number.

02

Dao learns your business

We configure your hours, services, staff, and policies in one 15-minute call. Mali greets every caller in your voice and style.
