About Smith.ai
We registered the domain Smith.ai in 2015, years before AI was mainstream. We named the company for the future we believed was coming, then spent a decade building toward it.
We answered calls for law firms with our network of 500+ North American agents trained on legal, and learned what good intake sounds like.
Millions of real conversations became the training ground for our AI Receptionist and Intake Agent.
We found that AI + humans work better together. AI handles the routine, people handle the complex, and together they take each caller from first hello to signed client.

“Six years at a family law firm taught me what a scared caller needs to hear first.”
“By the time I’m on the line, the intake is done. I get to spend the call on the person.”
“Most of my calls are in Spanish. For a lot of those callers, we’re the first firm that could help them in their language.”
We answered calls for law firms with humans for 6+ years before we built any AI. That’s why our AI knows how calls actually work, how to handle them, and when to hand them off.”

I have noticed a faster response in getting back to potential clients, screening them, and having them come into the office to get started. Smith.ai helps us use time wisely.
We have tried several different AI answering systems and the best one we’ve tried so far — by a LANDSLIDE — has been Smith.ai! The AI just nails it every time.
