We have some exciting news to share.
Rosie, the AI answering service trusted by over 1,300 small businesses across the country, is getting a major upgrade. As Bland AI's exclusive SMB partner, we've always been proud to be fully powered by the world's fastest conversational AI.
Today, we're thrilled to announce that we've levelled up, integrating Bland 2.0, a brand new LLM that’s purpose-built for conversational experiences, to bring our customers even more realistic, natural conversations and a significant boost in performance.
This is a huge step forward in our mission to help small businesses grow faster by ensuring they never miss a valuable lead.
Why every call matters for small businesses
Since our inception, Rosie has helped over 1,300 US businesses process over 1.4 million phone calls.
We understand the daily struggles of the "Fortune 5 Million" – the small, local businesses that are the lifeblood of our communities. We know that for painters, lawyers, and dog groomers alike, every single call matters.
When a potential customer calls and gets voicemail, they don't wait; they simply move on to the next name on the list. That's a lost opportunity, and it's a pain point we're dedicated to solving.
In our research, we found that 70% of our customers felt either extremely stressed or somewhat stressed about getting interrupted by the phone.
It's a constant battle between focusing on the job at hand and worrying about the next call.
Rosie was built to take that stress away. Our AI answering service fields calls, answers questions, sets appointments, and sends you all the details 24/7, so you can focus on what you do best.
"Since signing up with Rosie, I've been able to capture every lead that comes in, even when I'm deep in work,” says Derek Goodson, Founder, Next-Level Marketing Agency. “I spend less time playing phone tag and more time delivering results for my customers."
Why we chose Bland AI as our exclusive partner
To deliver this level of service, we needed a partner with world-class technology and a shared commitment to excellence.
We found that partner in Bland. While Bland focuses on large enterprise clients, Rosie makes that same powerful technology accessible to small business owners at a price that works for everyone.
The decision to partner with Bland was a conscious one. We didn't start with Bland—we moved to Bland very deliberately.
“We needed a team we could trust. After visiting their office, working alongside them for two days, and sharing meals together, we walked away saying these people are right for us,” says Jordan, Founder of Rosie. “These are ambitious, honest, hard-working people without fluff. Just like the Rosie team.”
That trust, combined with Bland's cutting-edge, open-source-based technology focused specifically on phone calls, made them the clear choice to power Rosie.
And now, we're taking that partnership to the next level and it’s already evident to Rosie’s customers.
Here’s what Edgar Quinteros, Owner of The Copier Guy said about the calls enabled by Rosie and Bland’s partnership:
“The response with callers is so real, sometimes customers don't know it's AI."
What our customers are saying
Edgar’s not alone in noticing the quality of Rosie’s interactions with his customers.
The impact on our customers has been profound.
From a quieter office to more booked jobs, the stories we hear are a testament to the power of this partnership.
"People tell me all the time: ‘You're really easy to do business with. I called, I got the link sent to me, the pricing was there, I booked an appointment and you showed up to the job,’” says Jason Aleman, Gutter Cowboy.
"It's a lot quieter in the office because the calls are going to the right place," says Myles Siegel, VP Business Development, Comm-Fit
The future is calling, and with Rosie, powered by Bland 2.0, you'll be ready to answer.
We're incredibly excited about this next chapter and what it means for the small businesses we serve.
