We believe in honesty. Contact forms are fine for detailed support tickets, file uploads, or when visitors specifically want async communication. Some visitors prefer writing out a complex technical question and getting a thoughtful email response.
But for lead capture and first conversations? Voice wins. When someone lands on your site and wants to know if you can help them, making them fill out five fields and wait two days for a reply is how you lose that lead. An AI voice agent answers in under a second and keeps the conversation going.
