AI receptionist for small firms and local businesses

Your AI receptionist for calls, WhatsApp & web.

Leads and appointments in real time.

Ema reads your website and answers your customers in their own language. Take enquiries 24/7 on your site and on WhatsApp, and get every enquiry and every appointment straight to your phone by SMS and email.

  • Answers 24/7
  • Any language
  • Set up in minutes
  • 30 days free, no card
Ema, a smiling coral speech-bubble character, with three messages round her: a website chat asking “Hi! Do you offer weekend bookings?”, a phone call asking “Can I book for next Saturday?”, and a WhatsApp message asking “What are your opening hours?”.
  • Run in the UK, by a UK company

    We are PUGLIESEWEB LTD, registered in England and Wales. Ema runs on AWS in London (eu-west-2).

  • Answers you can check

    Every answer comes from your own pages, with a link to the one she used. If your site doesn’t cover something, she won’t pretend it does.

  • Built like a payment system

    Ema’s founder spent fifteen years building card and wallet systems for a bank. Client data is handled to that standard.

  • Keeps herself up to date

    She re-reads your website every night or every week, whichever you choose, and learns from the documents you upload. Change a price on your site and her answers follow, without you telling her.

  • 30 days free, no contract

    Every plan starts with 30 days free, and you don’t need a card to start. Add one before day 30 to keep Ema answering, and cancel from the console at any time.

  • Nothing hidden

    Where we host, who our sub-processors are, how we encrypt, how long we keep data and what happens if there’s a breach. It’s all published.

    Read the trust page

Ema Answers is built and run by PuglieseWeb, the Hampshire company that also builds SystemDox — and we run Ema on our own website every day.

Who Ema is for

Two kinds of business lose enquiries. She’s built for both.

  • Firms that handle confidential client data

    Accountants, solicitors, brokers, advisers and clinics

    A new client rarely rings twice. In January, or the week before a completion, the enquiry that lands at 9pm goes to whoever answers first. Ema answers it, captures it and, if you want, books the first call. And she does it without your client data going anywhere you can’t account for.

    • Nothing confidential goes into her knowledge. She answers from your public pages and the documents you choose, and if the answer isn’t there she says so.
    • The confidential part is the enquiry itself: who asked, and what about. It lives on AWS in London, each answer is generated through an EU inference profile, and nothing is used to train anyone’s model.
    • Every sub-processor, retention period and breach procedure is published on the trust page in plain English, so your compliance questions have answers before you ask them.
    • Built by a payments architect who spent fifteen years inside a bank’s card systems, where “where does the data go” is asked every day.
  • Businesses that are busy when the phone rings

    Trades, salons and local services

    You’re under a sink, up a ladder or halfway through a colour, and the phone goes. Most callers don’t leave a message; they try the next name. Ema answers on your website and WhatsApp, quotes what your site says, and books the slot into your calendar while the customer is still keen.

    • Answers around the clock, in whatever language the customer writes in.
    • Books the job from the calendar you already keep, with buffers and a reminder.
    • Texts every enquiry to your phone with the conversation behind it.
    • One line to install. No developer, no new app to learn.

What Ema does for you

More than a chat widget, for less than a receptionist

It’s all one assistant, working from what you’ve told her about your business. Anything marked live is yours the day you sign up. Anything marked “set up with you” is something we switch on together.

  • Live

    Knows your business properly

    She reads your website and any documents you give her, so she knows your services, hours, prices and terms. If something isn’t in there, she tells the customer that rather than guessing.

  • Live

    Sends visitors to the right page

    Each answer links back to the page it came from on your site. Someone asking about prices ends up on your pricing page, not somewhere else.

  • Live

    Speaks your customers’ language

    She replies in whatever language the customer writes in, and reports back to you in yours.

  • Live

    Emails you every enquiry

    As soon as a customer leaves their details you get an email, and the enquiry sits in your console with the full conversation attached.

  • Live

    Answers when you cannot

    Late on a Sunday night, halfway through a job, or in the first week of January, she replies in seconds. The enquiry is waiting in your inbox when you get to it.

  • Included

    Books the job while she’s talking

    Booking offers a free slot from your calendar right there in the conversation and confirms it, out of hours included.

Recorded live

See Ema at work

This is the console exactly as a business sees it, recorded on 20 September 2026: the Home page, Ema reading a website, a visitor booking an appointment in the live preview, and that appointment showing up on the calendar. It runs just over a minute and there’s no voice-over.

  1. 1Home: what’s going on at your business today. Conversations, leads, appointments and anything that needs a look from you.
  2. 2Knowledge: Ema finds the pages on your website, reads the ones you choose and writes up a summary of your business.
  3. 3The live preview: a visitor asks about prices and books an appointment without leaving the chat.
  4. 4Booking: the appointment is on your calendar, confirmed, with the customer’s details next to it.

How Ema works

From website visitor to real lead in seconds

A visitor asks on your website. Ema answers from your own pages, in their language. The enquiry is in your Leads and in your inbox before they have closed the tab.

  1. 1

    Visitor asks

    A visitor lands on your website and asks a question in their own language.

  2. 2

    Ema answers

    Ema understands the enquiry, answers in the customer’s language from your own pages, and links the one she used.

  3. 3

    Lead appears instantly

    The enquiry is saved as a lead with the conversation behind it, and emailed to you, so you never miss it.

Getting there takes three steps

Scan your site, let her answer, get leads and appointments. Those are the three steps the console walks you through.

  1. 1

    Scan your site

    Create an account and pick a plan (no card needed for the first 30 days), then type in your website address. Ema finds your pages, reads the ones you pick and writes a summary of your business: services, prices, opening hours and the way you talk to customers. You can add documents for anything the site doesn’t cover. If the answer isn’t there, she says so rather than making one up.

  2. 2

    Answer customers

    Give her a name, a greeting and your colours, try her out in the live preview, then paste one snippet into your site. That’s the whole install. From then on she answers on your website around the clock, in whatever language each customer uses. WhatsApp and the phone are something we set up with you.

  3. 3

    Get leads & appointments

    When a visitor leaves their details, the enquiry comes to you by email and by text, with the conversation behind it, and it waits for you in Leads. With Booking she offers free slots from your calendar inside the chat and confirms the appointment. You see it in the console the moment it’s booked.

The features

One product, seven features

Every account starts with the Assistant on your own website. You can add the others when you’re ready for them. It’s the same Ema throughout, with the same knowledge and the same calendar.

Start here

Assistant

The chat you install, and what every account starts with. One script tag on your website and she’s answering your customers day and night, in whatever language they write in, from the information you’ve given her.

  • Included

    Leads

    Everyone who has got in touch, in one place: each person with their enquiries, a summary of what was said, a status and your own notes. Nobody who reached out gets lost in an inbox.

  • Growth, set up with you

    Conversations

    Every conversation she has had, plus the channels your customers already use, starting with WhatsApp. Same knowledge, same tone, same calendar.

  • Included

    Booking

    Customers pick a slot inside the conversation and it’s confirmed against the calendar you already keep, with buffers between jobs and a reminder before each appointment.

  • Custom, set up with you

    Voice

    Ema picks up the phone when you can't, and books the job while she's on the line.

  • Coming soon

    Local

    A local directory where people find a business that can help them, with Ema answering on your listing before the customer has even got to your site.

One product, one Ema. Each feature is switched on and priced separately, but they aren’t separate things you have to buy into. They share the same conversation engine, the same knowledge you’ve taught her and the same calendar she books into. Nothing to migrate and nothing new to learn.

Pay for the year and get two months free: Starter £490, Growth £990.

Every plan starts with 30 days free, and no card is needed to start. Add a card before day 30 and your first charge is on day 30; if you don’t, Ema pauses and nothing is deleted. You can cancel from Plan & billing at any time. If you run out of replies before the month does, add 100 for £10 in the console or move up a plan; Ema stops at the limit rather than running up a bill you didn’t agree to. WhatsApp is in pilot, so we switch it on with you, and Meta’s per-conversation fees are passed on at cost. Text notifications go to UK mobiles; email goes anywhere. No VAT is added to these prices: PUGLIESEWEB LTD is not currently VAT registered.

How plans, limits and your trial work

Before you start

The questions we get asked

Short answers. Where one needs backing up, the link is underneath.

  • Do I need a developer to install it?

    No. The console gives you one line to paste into your site, and step-by-step instructions for WordPress, Wix, Squarespace and Shopify. If you can edit your own pages you can have Ema installed in a couple of minutes.

  • Will she make things up about my business?

    No. She only answers from your website and the documents you give her, and every answer links to the page it came from. If the answer isn’t there she says so instead of guessing. That’s usually a sign you have a page missing.

  • What language does she answer in?

    Whatever language the visitor writes in. Someone asking in Polish gets a reply in Polish, from the same English pages you already have. Your enquiry emails and your console stay in your language.

  • How do the enquiries reach me?

    By email, the moment someone leaves their details, with their name, their contact details and the conversation behind it. You can have it by text as well if you give us a UK mobile number. The same enquiry also waits in your console with the whole exchange, so nothing hangs on one message getting through.

  • What does it cost to try?

    Nothing for 30 days, and you don’t need a card to start. Pick a plan, try it, and add a card before day 30 to keep Ema answering: your first charge is on day 30. If you don’t, she pauses and nothing is deleted. Plans are £49 or £99 a month, no setup fee, no VAT.

    How plans, limits and your trial work
  • What if I run out of replies before the month is up?

    Add 100 for £10 from the console, or move up a plan. Ema stops when you hit the limit rather than quietly running up a bill, which is why you can leave her switched on without worrying.

    What counts, when it resets, and what stops
  • Where does my data live?

    On AWS in London (eu-west-2): the application, its databases and its backups. We won’t tell you it never leaves the UK, because that wouldn’t be true. Incoming email is handled in Ireland, and the model that writes each answer is called through an EU inference profile. All of this, along with our sub-processors and how long we keep things, is set out on the trust page.

    Hosting, sub-processors and retention
  • Can she book appointments, or answer the phone?

    Yes to both. Booking is in every plan. WhatsApp comes with Growth and is in pilot, so we set it up with you. Answering the phone comes with Custom, which starts with a conversation instead of a checkout.

  • How do I turn her off?

    Take the line of code out of your site and she stops straight away. There’s nothing to uninstall. Your plan is cancelled from the console’s Plan & billing page and won’t renew.
