AI receptionists for Indiana businesses
Yes. We build and manage AI receptionists for Indiana businesses, managed for you end to end from our studio in Kalispell, Montana. Indiana is a one-party consent state under Ind. Code 35-31.5-2-176; 35-33.5-5-5, so a business on the call may record it without telling the caller. No Indiana statute we track requires a business's AI receptionist to announce that it is AI. Your agent answers in Eastern and Central time, on the number you already have or a new local Indiana number.

Recording a call in Indiana
Indiana is a one-party consent state. Only a non-party recording without the sender's or receiver's consent is an interception.

Does it have to say it is AI in Indiana?

The Indiana greeting we recommend
“Thanks for calling [your business]. You have reached our AI receptionist, and this call is recorded. How can I help?”
