Proof Before Promises

Start With What Actually Happened

Zento starts with the caller experience. We measure what happened when someone tried to reach the firm, then show the response path a firm-approved virtual receptionist could provide.

Example Law Firm, L.P.A. · Call Audit

Business hours

Mon, 10:14 am

Outcome: Voicemail

After hours

Mon, 7:20 pm

Outcome: Voicemail

What this means: 2 of 2 calls reached voicemail. Some callers with urgent questions may not leave a message when they reach voicemail, so the next step is to review how a firm-approved receptionist would answer, capture intake, and route the matter.

The Intake Problem

It Usually Starts Before the Consultation

A prospective client may call while the team is in court, with another client, after hours, or between intake tasks. If the caller reaches voicemail, hears an unclear option, or receives no timely next step, the firm may never get another opportunity.

During court

The front desk cannot answer while your team is in a hearing or trial.

After 5 p.m.

Prospective clients may reach out after the office closes, when fewer staff are available to respond.

Lunch or staff shortages

Coverage gaps are where inquiries stall and callers move on.

When the line is busy

A busy signal or hold queue sends the next call to voicemail.

A missed response creates a risk of losing the opportunity — not necessarily a lost case. The point of the audit is to measure the gap before it costs the firm.

A Simple Four-Step Process

Measure the Gap. Then Fix the Response.

Request the audit, watch the response path get measured, review the report, and test your own configured demo.

Hear the Experience Before You Buy Anything

Test a live Zento demo using a fictional intake scenario. Ask about the firm, request a consultation, or test an urgent-message workflow. Please do not share real client or case information.

Try a prompt

No confidential information — fictional scenarios only.

  • “I’m looking for a consultation about a car accident.”
  • “How can a new prospective client request an appointment?”
  • “How would an urgent message be routed after hours?”

Demonstration only. The AI does not provide legal advice, determine legal rights, confirm representation, or replace the firm’s conflict, intake, or professional-judgment processes.

FAQ

Answers Before You Ask

Does the audit claim I am losing cases?

No. The audit reports call-handling behavior only. We document what a prospective caller actually experienced during business hours and after hours, and show the response path a firm-approved virtual receptionist could provide. We never estimate dollar loss or claim a specific case outcome.

Do you actually call my office?

Only if you request an audit and approve the call scenario. The two-call audit is a silent measurement: it connects and hangs up, records whether a person, a machine, or nothing answered, and reports the result. No message is played and no one is spoken to.

Will the AI give legal advice?

No. The system does not interpret law, recommend strategy, or promise an outcome. It answers approved routine questions, collects the intake details your firm decides to capture, and routes anything needing legal judgment to a person. Your firm controls the script, the rules, and the escalation path.

Who decides what the receptionist says?

Your firm does. Nothing goes live until you review the approved language, intake questions, booking flow, conflict-screening rules, and urgent-matter routing. When something needs to change, you change it — the system follows your instructions, not its own.

What happens to after-hours calls?

After-hours is where most firms lose prospective clients, so it is covered first. The receptionist answers, captures approved intake details, and books consultations against the rules you set — or flags urgent matters for the person you designate. Your team gets the record before the next business day.

How much does the audit cost?

The intake audit itself is free and no-obligation — requesting it does not commit you to anything. Pricing for the Zento response system depends on the configuration and usage your firm chooses, and is only discussed after you have seen the report.

How quickly will I receive the report?

Typically within one business day after your firm details are confirmed. We review the agreed call scenario, place the two test calls, and send the plain-language report with a live demo link.

Do I need to install anything?

No. The audit uses your firm's approved public contact path, and the demo can be tested from a browser or a phone. Nothing is installed on your systems to run the audit.

Does this replace my receptionist?

No. Zento is designed to support the firm's approved intake and routing process. The firm decides when calls should be answered, transferred, scheduled, escalated, or handed to a person. It is a support layer, not a replacement for your staff.

What information does the system store?

The audit records call-handling outcomes — whether a person, a machine, or no one answered — not call content or confidential case details. This page does not collect confidential client information. For details on what is retained and how to request deletion, see the Privacy Policy or contact Zento directly.
