Built around the conversation

One workspace.
So many ways
to connect.

Phon8 connects a business phone workspace to ServiceM8. Staff can see matched customer and job details, while your team controls what assistants can do and reviews proposed updates before they are saved.

Find your starting point

Your team stays in control.Staff review is the default for proposed ServiceM8 updates.

Calls, numbers and call flowGive customers one business number and make it clear who should answer.
  • Make and receive calls in phon8, with call history and customer lookup.
  • Choose a new UK number or connect an eligible number you already own. Number purchase may require a business address and regulatory approval. Verifying your existing caller ID enables outgoing calls only; incoming calls need forwarding to a connected phon8 number or a separate number transfer.
  • Route calls by business hours, staff, extensions and voicemail, or offer a keypad menu such as “press 1 for sales”. Block unwanted numbers and set staff forwarding.
  • Record calls and create live transcripts when enabled. Configure the caller notice and retention period first.
AI receptionist and call assistanceLet an assistant handle a configured call flow and give staff useful context to review.
  • Set up assistants with your business details, services, policies and answers to common questions.
  • Use call transcripts, summaries and Copilot answers to help staff follow a conversation.
  • By default, staff review suggested notes, customer, job or follow-up changes before phon8 writes them to ServiceM8. An administrator can separately enable automatic job creation for the booking flow.
  • Practise an assistant before use, keep configuration versions, and ask the in-app Ask AI helper to prepare reviewed setup changes.
Customer messages and follow-upKeep supported customer messages near the call and job that started them.
  • Send and receive SMS where the chosen number and provider support replies, and check message delivery status.
  • Manage WhatsApp conversations, approved templates and customer consent through a connected provider.
  • Use message assistance and booking questions where configured. Staff review is the default for booking requests; an administrator can enable automatic job creation separately.
  • WhatsApp availability depends on provider approval, sender setup, approved templates and customer permission. Managed sender onboarding is still subject to Meta approval.
A workspace for your teamGive staff a shared place for work conversations and call context.
  • Create private staff, group and job conversations, and start team calls.
  • Assign conversations, set reminders and keep relevant messages with job context.
  • Share files in staff conversations when the account has file sharing enabled; uploads are checked and may be unavailable during setup.
  • Use roles and permissions to limit who can change settings or view sensitive call material.
Business knowledge and caller memoryHelp assistants use information your business has chosen to maintain.
  • Add business services, prices, coverage, policies and FAQs, then attach reference documents for assistant answers.
  • Search indexed documents and check the cited passages before relying on an answer.
  • Optionally keep short caller preferences from eligible transcribed AI calls and WhatsApp conversations. Memory starts off; an administrator must enable it and record the customer’s permission.
  • Review, correct and set retention for saved caller summaries. Messaging permission and caller-memory permission are separate.
Optional 3CX phone-system connectionBusinesses already using the 3CX business phone system can connect selected staff extensions.
  • Route supported outbound calls to a staff member’s registered 3CX handset and import completed call reports with the optional CRM template.
  • This needs a reachable 3CX phone system over HTTPS and a suitable 3CX Call Control licence. 3CX provides the caller ID and carrier charges.
  • Phon8 browser calling, numbers, SMS and WhatsApp still use the configured Twilio service.
