Newo
2261 Market Street #5263, San Francisco, CA 94114, USA
What it is
Newo is a voice AI agent for business calls that can complete actions such as bookings and routing in existing business systems. Its SMS agent uses the same agent and conversation history as the phone line, replies by text, and can book the next step in a scheduler. Records from phone, text, and email are combined so conversations can continue with prior context. Follow-up sequences can run across channels and stop when a customer replies. Agents can use a knowledge base built from a business website and added materials. The integrations page lists 29 options, including Open Dental, Dentrix, Square, Housecall Pro, Calendly, GoHighLevel, WhatsApp, and Instagram. Newo supports 15+ languages and can switch languages mid-conversation. Listed security details include ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, a SOC 2 Type 1 report, encrypted conversation data, and role-based access. Plans include free Pay As You Go units and a $299.00 per month AI Receptionist plan.
