AI Receptionist for Small Business UK: The Complete 2026 Guide

The Problem Every UK Small Business Has

Enquiries arrive when you're with a client, on a job or in a meeting. If nobody replies, the enquirer may contact someone else. Hiring a receptionist is a large fixed cost for a small business.

What MansaMusaAI's AI Receptionist Does

MansaMusaAI's AI receptionist works on your website chat. It:

• Answers questions about your business with the name, greeting and persona you configure
• Captures lead details — when a visitor leaves their name and email, they are saved as a lead in your CRM
• Keeps a history of conversations so you can see what visitors asked

Your plan also includes a booking calendar: set your availability and clients can book appointments. Phone, SMS and WhatsApp channels are not currently offered.

How Much Does It Cost?

There is a free plan with 5 AI chats a day. The AI receptionist is included from Starter at £49/month, alongside the CRM, appointment booking and an AI executive team. Professional at £149/month adds email automation sequences and the Business Research Desk. Enterprise is £499/month.

Verify your email and you can try Professional free for 14 days, with no credit card.
