AI receptionist team workflow
Cents Assist is an extension of your team that works around the clock to grow your business while maintaining the personal touch that sets successful laundromats apart from the competition.

From missed calls to maximized opportunities
"Before Cents Assist, we were missing calls simply because we needed to prioritize customers standing right in front of us. Since implementing the system, we've seen a direct impact on our bottom line. The system's 100% answer rate means we never miss an opportunity, and customers receive professionalized, consistent information."
– Brian Riseland, Laundry Genius

Cents Assist acts as the front line of your business with full integration into the rest of the Cents platform. Instead of calls and texts directly reaching your store, your AI receptionist team will filter out between 80% and 100% of inquiries before they reach your team, depending on your preferences. You'll have full visibility into all of these calls and messages and can monitor and tweak how the AI is responding. Assist has full context of your customers, orders, Laundroworks cards, and more that you already have within Cents—with no need for additional setup.
Choose between in-store transfers, offshore Cents Support, or bypassing transfers entirely with an email/text summary sent to the owner. Add a secondary fallback number for busy or unanswered lines, and opt into email notifications for every escalation event. You set the rules during setup.
