A business line you can take to work

When you’re mid-lesson on a roundabout, answering a call takes you away from your work. KiwiPhone can take the enquiry so you have the details ready when you’re free.

A free UK business number on your iPhone

Use a local business number with unlimited incoming calls on the Free plan. It works on your existing iPhone and keeps your personal mobile private.

Fewer enquiries lost to voicemail

Teaching a hill start or a parallel park? Choose AI answers mode so KiwiPhone can take enquiries while you work, within your plan’s allowance.

Answers from your website

KiwiPhone imports information from your website, including your pick-up areas. Check your services and opening hours in the app before it uses them.

You decide who answers

Keep track of follow-ups

Read the summary after a call or open the transcript for more detail. KiwiPhone creates tasks for requests that need a follow-up, linked to the caller’s details.

KiwiPhone brings a business phone number and an AI Receptionist to an iPhone app for sole traders and small businesses. Driving instructors can use it to take enquiries during lessons or while driving between pick-ups. The app keeps call details together so you can prepare for the next conversation with a learner.

A separate UK business number on your iPhone

Customers call your local UK business number and you manage those calls in the KiwiPhone app on your existing iPhone. It works over mobile data or Wi-Fi, using the phone and SIM you already have.

Your personal mobile number stays private when customers contact you through KiwiPhone. The first release provides a new number, so plan where to publish it when your line is active.

Choose your AI answering hours

Choose ‘AI answers’ when you need to concentrate on your work. KiwiPhone takes the call straight away and asks what the learner needs. You can set a weekly schedule or change who answers in the app.

In Ring me mode, your iPhone rings first. After 60 seconds without an answer, AI answering starts while your plan’s pickup allowance permits. Free includes 5 AI pickups a week; Pro includes unlimited AI answering.

Give callers details about your services

Add your business website during setup, then check the information KiwiPhone imports. Your website might describe manual and automatic lessons or intensive courses, with details about Pass Plus. KiwiPhone uses your saved details to answer questions about the work you do.

Keep your pick-up areas and your working hours up to date in the app. For enquiries such as an intensive course or a mock test, KiwiPhone takes the request for you to assess. You confirm availability and agree the work directly.

Follow up with the lesson details in front of you

After a completed KiwiPhone call, read the summary or open the transcript for more detail. KiwiPhone creates tasks from requests that need a follow-up, such as calling a learner about lessons before their test. Each task links to the caller’s details.

On Free, callbacks use your iPhone’s normal phone service and caller ID. The planned Pro plan costs £10 a month and includes unlimited domestic calls from your KiwiPhone business number. KiwiPhone saves summaries for calls made through the app.

Details for driving instructors

Before you join

Check how KiwiPhone fits your business.

What happens with an urgent driving lesson enquiry?

KiwiPhone takes the caller’s details and a description of what they need for you to review. You decide whether you can help and agree any timing directly.

Can KiwiPhone discuss prices or arrange a booking?

KiwiPhone can share the lesson price saved in your business information. For anything that needs a quote or a booking, it takes the request. You confirm the price and booking with the caller.

Can I use the number already on the side of my car?

KiwiPhone supplies a new local UK business number. Transferring your existing number is outside the first release. Once your new number is active, you can add it to your website and business listings.

What happens when my iPhone has no signal?

KiwiPhone’s AI Receptionist runs online independently of your iPhone’s connection. With ‘AI answers’ selected, KiwiPhone can take calls while you’re out of signal, within your plan’s allowance. You need data or Wi-Fi to use the app and read the details afterwards.

What does KiwiPhone cost?

The planned Free plan costs £0 a month. It includes a local UK number with unlimited incoming calls, plus 5 AI pickups a week. Pro is planned at £10 a month, adding unlimited AI answering and domestic calls from your business number. Joining the launch list is free.

Are calls recorded?

KiwiPhone processes call audio during the conversation and saves a written transcript. Audio recordings are not stored. You can read the transcript after a call answered by you or KiwiPhone.

When can I get KiwiPhone?

KiwiPhone is in development. The first release is planned for iPhone in the UK, with conversations in English. Join the launch list and we’ll email you when it’s ready to try.
