Voksha analysis of 1M+ calls shows routine inquiries like hours, pricing and booking cost small business owners 15+ hours per week.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, August 6, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Voksha (voksha.com), the AI receptionist platform for small businesses and SaaS companies, today published findings from its analysis of more than 1 million inbound business calls handled since December 2025. The data shows that roughly 7 in 10 calls to small businesses are repetitive inquiries that an AI receptionist can resolve without human involvement. These include questions about business hours, pricing, available services and appointment booking.

The finding points to a growing productivity gap for small business owners who still answer their own phones or rely on voicemail. Industry data shows that 80 percent of callers will not leave a voicemail and 85 percent of those callers never call back, meaning each missed or mishandled call carries real revenue risk.

"Small business owners don't have a phone problem. They have a time problem," said Avi Nash, VP of Growth at Voksha. "When 7 out of 10 calls are someone asking what time you close or how much a service costs, that's 15 hours a week you could spend on the work that actually grows your business. An AI receptionist handles those calls instantly, in a natural human voice, 24 hours a day."

Key findings from Voksha's call data:
- 70 percent of inbound calls to small businesses on the platform are repetitive, automatable inquiries.
- The four most common call types are business hours (22%), pricing and quotes (19%), service availability (17%) and appointment booking (12%).
- Average call resolution time for AI-handled repetitive calls is under 90 seconds, compared to 4 to 6 minutes when handled by a human receptionist.
- After-hours calls account for 34 percent of total volume. These are calls that go entirely unanswered without an AI receptionist.
- 1 in 3 calls are not in English, consistent with Voksha's previously published multilingual research.
