A smarter way to answer every customer call.

Opeus is an AI receptionist for small businesses: it answers your calls, captures what each customer needs, texts you the summary, and books appointments into your calendar.

Backup for the calls that used to get away.

Put Opeus behind your number.

Your public number stays where it is. Opeus answers only the calls you send it: after-hours, busy, unanswered, or all calls if you want full cover.

  1. Give it the facts

    Start with your website or Google listing. Add your hours, services, suburbs, rough prices, urgent jobs, and the questions you usually ask.

    You check everything before it answers a customer.

  2. Try the awkward calls

    Ring it yourself. Ask about prices. Ask for today. Ask for something outside your service area.

    Change the greeting, the questions, and the urgent triggers until it sounds like your business.

  3. Forward the calls you miss

    Keep your current number. Send busy, unanswered, or after-hours calls to Opeus.

    Every answered call is saved in your dashboard and sent to you by text.

Most businesses are live in about 10 minutes. No new phone system.

Ringing out sends people back to the list.

The person calling you has already done the hard part. They found you.

If the phone rings out, they do not study your brand. They tap the next result, ask the same question, and book with whoever answers first.

Opeus covers the gap between being found and being free to pick up.

Built in Sydney for Australian calls.

Opeus is made for the way local customers actually speak: suburbs, job types, mobile numbers, GST, after-hours urgency, and the small details that decide whether a call becomes work.

It is not a call centre. It is backup for the number your customers already know.

Common questions

Do I keep my own phone number?

Yes. Most businesses keep their current number and forward missed, busy, or after-hours calls to Opeus. You can also take a dedicated number if you prefer.

How do the included minutes work?

Receptionist minutes are the time Opeus spends answering calls. Starter includes 250 minutes per month. Professional includes 1,000 minutes per month. You can change plans as call volume changes.

Will callers know it is AI?

You choose the greeting. We recommend being clear that Opeus is an answering assistant for your business. The goal is simple: answer well, ask useful questions, and pass the details to you quickly.

What if it is wrong for my business?

You can test Opeus before going live. Change the greeting, services, questions, suburbs, urgent triggers, and anything it should avoid saying. Every plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Can I use it only after hours?

Yes. You decide when calls go to Opeus. Use it after hours, when the line is busy, when calls go unanswered, or as full-time cover.

What happens to spam calls?

Opeus can recognise common sales calls and robocalls, then end them politely. You do not need to hear about every blocked call unless you want to.

Your phone can have backup today.

AI answering is becoming normal. Add it to the number customers already call. The caller gets an answer. You get the useful bits. The next listing waits.

Keep your number. Set up in about 10 minutes. Month to month.
