Answer every call on Vonage instantly while keeping smartphones and apps untouched.

Answer every call on Vonage instantly while keeping smartphones and apps untouched.

You do not need to replace Vonage to fix how calls get answered. The AI layer sits in front of your existing setup, so extensions, recordings, and reporting keep working the way your team expects.

Setting up with Vonage

Deployment is a routing change rather than a phone-system migration. The steps below are the whole job.

  • Create a new call forwarding rule to MedFrontDesk.ai
  • Katie handles IVR/intent instead of the default auto attendant
  • Warm transfer to Vonage extensions with patient context

Compatibility notes

What carries over from your current Vonage configuration, and what to check before you start.

  • Works with legacy Vonage + Vonage Enterprise

What stays exactly as it is

Practices worry that adding an AI layer means rebuilding telephony. It does not. Vonage keeps doing what it does.

  • Your existing numbers and extensions
  • Call recording and analytics you already rely on
  • Hunt groups and internal transfer paths
  • Your current contracts and hardware

What to measure after go-live

Agree the numbers before you switch anything on, so the effect of the Vonage layer is visible rather than anecdotal.

  • Answer speed and abandoned-call rate
  • Share of calls resolved without staff involvement
  • Staff hours returned to in-person work
  • Booking and no-show rate movement

Rollout checklist

  • Confirm your Vonage plan and admin access.
  • Decide which numbers or queues to route first.
  • Mirror your current auto-attendant options.
  • Define where calls return to after handling.
  • Test end to end before cutting the main line over.

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to leave Vonage?

No. This layers on top of Vonage; your numbers, extensions, and contracts stay where they are.

Can we start with one queue?

Yes, and most practices should. Route one line or queue first, confirm behavior, then expand.

What happens to call recordings?

Existing recording and analytics continue to work. Handled calls are also logged with structured outcomes.
