AI receptionist

Missing Calls and Messages?

A missed call is a missed sale. Your AI receptionist (a chatbot) answers calls and chats in seconds, texts back missed callers and takes bookings. Hard questions go to your team.

See AI Receptionist & Support Desk →

Missed calls become answered, no-shows become booked, unpaid invoices get paid, quiet pages get posted, and businesses get found.

How a problem gets solved

Prices

How pricing works

  • 01Every business is different, so every setup is priced for yours: a one-off setup fee, agreed in writing before any work starts.
  • 02Then a small monthly fee to keep it running, watched and improving, worked out as a share of the setup.
  • 03The first call is free. You leave it knowing what is worth doing, and roughly what it would cost.

Who's behind it

A real team in Nairobi, with AI doing the heavy lifting.

Astra & Co. is run from Nairobi by its founder, Sharon. If a computer can do it, AI can understand it or AI can automate it, we can build it, as long as it's legal. A member of our team leads every project.

FAQs

Plain answers.

All 11 questions →
  • What does Astra & Co. do?

    You run the business; we run everything behind it. That covers answering customers on WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and your website, running your social media and ads, photos, video, design and websites, and the admin: bookings, invoices, payments, stock and reports. AI does the repetitive work and our team checks it.

  • How much does it cost?

    Every business is different, so every setup is priced for yours: a one-off setup fee agreed in writing before any work starts, then a small monthly fee to keep it running and improving, worked out as a share of the setup. The first call is free, and you leave it knowing roughly what it would cost.

  • I don't really understand AI. Is this for me?

    Yes. You don't need to learn anything technical. On the free call we talk about your business in plain words: what eats your time, where customers slip away. We tell you what is worth doing, what isn't, and we do the technical part.

  • Is a real person involved, or is it all robots?

    A member of our team leads every project. AI drafts, sorts and replies; our team checks the work, and you approve the things that matter, such as anything sent in your name.

  • What happens on the free call?

    We learn how your business really works, day to day. Then, if it makes sense, the next step is an audit that shows you, in numbers, where time, money and customers are slipping away. There is no obligation to go further.

  • Will it work with what I already use?

    Usually, yes. We work with the tools Kenyan businesses already run on, such as WhatsApp, M-Pesa, Instagram, Facebook, Google, Zoho, QuickBooks and Odoo, and connect them so nobody types the same thing twice.

Your business is not a template. Your AI shouldn't be either.
