Where the AI receptionist is available
Flowly AI serves businesses across Canada. It is Canadian-owned and based in Langford, BC, and British Columbia remains the home market. City pages are published for British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island.
Nothing about the service depends on where the shop is. Setup is remote, there is no office to visit, and the receptionist answers at the hours you set for your own time zone.
How remote setup works anywhere in Canada
It is the same four steps in every province. You do not need to be near Langford, and nothing is installed at your shop.
| Step | What happens | When |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Confirmation email, intake form and a 15-minute setup call | Within 24 hours |
| 2 | Your agent is built and tested, and you approve the script | 48 to 72 hours |
| 3 | You turn on conditional call forwarding with your carrier | About 2 minutes |
| 4 | Calls are answered and you get an email summary after each one | From then on |
Keeping your number
You keep the number you already advertise. Flowly AI uses conditional call forwarding, so there is no porting. Any fee your carrier charges for forwarding is yours, as set out in section 7 of the Terms.
Answering service pricing in Canadian dollars
One price list applies across Canada, in CAD. Overage is $0.49 CAD a minute on every plan, billed in arrears. There is no setup fee, and GST is not charged because Flowly AI Solutions is not registered for GST.
| Plan | Monthly (CAD) | Annual (CAD) | Minutes | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | $249 | $2,490 | 300 | After hours and weekends |
| Pro | $449 | $4,490 | 1,000 | 24/7, emergency dispatch by phone call, warm transfer |
| Fully Loaded | $649 | $6,490 | 2,500 | 24/7, multiple numbers or locations |
Seasonal call patterns for Canadian trades
Call volume in the trades follows the weather. Heating calls climb in winter, cooling calls in summer heat, and roofing, drainage and restoration calls after storms. Those are the weeks a shop is least able to answer its own phone.
An AI receptionist does not replace a crew in those weeks. It makes sure each caller is answered, the address and the problem are captured, and the urgent ones reach a person on Pro and Fully Loaded.
Privacy for Canadian callers
Flowly AI follows BC's PIPA and Canada's PIPEDA, and other provincial privacy laws may apply to your business depending on where you operate. Callers are told they are speaking with an AI and that the call may be recorded. Providers may process and store data outside Canada, including in the United States.
