RingCentral’s “AIR Everywhere”: Bringing Timeless 24/7 Reception Excellence to Modern Communication
In the time-tested world of business, first impressions still matter—and nothing conveys professionalism and respect quite like a live receptionist. But today’s realities demand flexibility and responsiveness that extend beyond office hours. That’s where RingCentral’s recent announcement of “AIR Everywhere” comes in, bridging the best of both worlds: the human touch and modern efficiency.

RingCentral’s AI Receptionist (AIR) honors those values—it hears every call, answers with clarity and warmth, and directs people to the right place without delay RingCentralRingCentral.
