What Claude can do with Carly

  • Call every new lead in under a minute, with their form answers in hand.
  • Book the meeting while they’re on the line, right onto your team’s real Google and Outlook calendars.
  • Text back every missed call within seconds, from your business number.
  • Work the phone on a schedule. “Every weekday at 8, call yesterday’s leads who never booked.”
  • Answer your phone 24/7. Or only when your team doesn’t pick up. In English or Spanish, whichever the caller speaks.
  • Let you watch a live call and steer it. Type “ask if Friday works” and the agent asks.
  • Log everything. Every call, transcript and text lands in one team inbox and your CRM.
  • Work with your other tools. Carly connects to thousands of apps, and every call can kick off a workflow.

See what people say

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.

Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.

On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
