By name: call-screening description: > Screen incoming phone calls with an AI receptionist. Amber answers calls, identifies the caller, determines the purpose, takes a message, and delivers a structured summary. Use when the user wants to set up call screening, check screened call results, or customize screening behavior.
Call Screening
Amber acts as an AI receptionist for inbound calls. She answers professionally, gathers information, and delivers structured summaries — so you only pick up calls that matter.
Screening Flow
- Greeting — Amber answers with a customizable greeting
- Identification — Asks who's calling and what it's regarding
- Information gathering — Collects caller name, callback number, message
- CRM lookup — Checks if the caller is a known contact (auto-enriches context)
- Calendar check — If the caller wants to book time, checks availability
- Summary delivery — Sends a structured summary with all captured details

- Customize the greeting message
- Set business hours and after-hours behavior
- Define which callers should be put through vs. screened
- Add organization-specific context (company name, services, etc.)
