IVR voice recording
Phone menu prompts that callers follow first time.
A greeting and press-1, press-2 options, written from your departments and recorded in a clear AI voice. Delivered in the exact format your auto attendant needs.

Built for menus
Short options, in the right order, clearly spoken
Good menus put the option first and the key second, keep the list short, and never bury the way to a person. The script writer follows those rules for you.
- Auto attendants
- Teams, Zoom Phone, RingCentral and 3CX menus, with each file ready to upload.
- Contact centres
- Routing prompts, queue messages and after-hours branches, all in one consistent voice.
- Growing businesses
- Add a department and re-record the menu in minutes, in the same voice as before.

Recordings ready for your phone system
Written, voiced and mixed for the phone line, then delivered in the format your system expects.
Menus from your departments
List your departments and keys, and the menu prompt is written to match. Change the order and it is rewritten.
