Zinng
Zinng answers business calls with an AI receptionist, captures leads, and handles appointment booking or follow-up. Small-business teams use it to cover missed, overflow, and after-hours calls through a shared calls, texts, and chat inbox.
Who it's for
- Small-business owners who want calls answered after hours or when staff are busy, while keeping their existing number or using a new Zinng number.
- Dental and other appointment-based practices that want callers to check availability or book through Cal.com or Calendly.
- Service-business teams, including lawn care, plumbing, and HVAC businesses, that need call handling, lead capture, and follow-up.
Not the right fit if…
- Businesses outside the United States and Canada: the page says Zinng currently supports only those regions.
- Teams that need AI-generated replies in their website chat today: the page says AI chat replies are coming soon.
How it fits your workflow
Provide a website or Google Business Profile and details about services, hours, pricing, and FAQs. Zinng builds the agent, and the team reviews it; businesses can also share documents or work with the team on setup.
Connect a phone number by forwarding or porting an existing number, or select a new Zinng number. The agent answers calls, handles questions, captures caller details, and can send booking links or book through a supported calendar.
Review calls and transcripts in the shared inbox, follow up by two-way SMS, and use post-call workflows to send configured texts. Website chats also arrive in the inbox; the widget is added to a site with a snippet.
