Nucleus launches the world’s first fully free AI receptionist for SMBs, ensuring businesses never miss a call and streamlining customer service through automation.
-- Nucleus AI Assistant Sets New Standard for Small Business Communication
Nucleus, a startup founded by long-time telecom industry veterans, has officially launched the first genuinely free AI receptionist designed specifically for small and medium-sized businesses, entrepreneurs, and freelancers. The tool provides 24/7 call answering and smart customer interactions with no upfront cost and no trial limits, positioning itself as a breakthrough solution in the crowded virtual assistant market.
Nucleus enables users to secure a dedicated US or Canadian business number and deploy a customizable AI-powered assistant that handles inbound phone calls, transfers to team members, and sends follow-ups via email or text—all at zero cost.
Peter Cross, Co-Founder and VP of Customer Experience at Nucleus, commented on the motivation behind the product:
"Missing even one business call today can mean losing a customer forever. We created Nucleus so that no entrepreneur or small business owner has to lose opportunities just because they couldn’t answer the phone."
Benefits of AI Receptionist: A New Era of Customer Engagement
In an increasingly competitive business landscape, missing a customer call can lead to missed opportunities. As one expert insightfully pointed out, "If you aren’t answering your customer’s calls, your competition is ..."
With our AI Receptionist, businesses will never have to worry about missing calls again. The system is designed to provide round-the-clock call management, ensuring every call is answered promptly and professionally, even when your team is unavailable. This technology helps businesses improve customer satisfaction and maintain a competitive edge.
A Platform Designed by Industry Veterans
Nucleus was founded by a group of long-time friends who have worked together in telecommunications for over 30 years. Their shared experience and understanding of shifting consumer expectations led to the realization that phone responsiveness has become a make-or-break factor in business success.
Recognizing the critical importance of every customer interaction, the team developed Nucleus as a no-cost, intelligent receptionist that users can train in under a minute. With the AI studying each business’s website or custom input data, callers experience a seamless, human-like interaction without knowing they’re speaking with a digital assistant.
Not a Trial – A True Free Plan for Modern Business Needs
Unlike other solutions on the market that offer limited-time trials or reduced-functionality freemium options, Nucleus delivers a robust set of capabilities entirely for free. This includes a business phone number, intelligent call handling, custom greetings, call transferring, team schedules, message forwarding, and comprehensive call analytics.
Users looking to expand functionality can choose to upgrade to a Premium version, which offers extended team support (up to 100 members) and other advanced features at half the price of competitors. At checkout, customers can use the promo code 20OFF to receive a 20% discount on Premium plans.

Standing Out Through Accessibility and Performance
Nucleus’s standout differentiator is not only its accessibility—free for everyone—but also its powerful features and ease of use. Businesses can:
- Answer every call with a conversational AI that sounds natural and informed
- Customize greetings and messages for a branded experience
- Transfer calls to up to 10 team members (or 100 with Premium)
- Set custom team availability hours for seamless handoffs
- Receive detailed call reports and sentiment analysis
Unlimited usage, noise cancellation, and intelligent speaker detection further enhance the quality and effectiveness of this AI tool.
Recognition and Awards Underway
