FIX9
AI receptionist for Quo / OpenPhone

Quo has Sona. Fix9 gives you another way to build the front desk.

OpenPhone is now Quo, and Quo's Sona AI virtual receptionist is integrated directly into its business phone platform. If you already like that workspace, Sona is the obvious native option to test. Fix9 is the alternative when you want the receptionist tied to the Fix9 phone, lead, and service-business workflow.

What Quo's Sona already does

Quo describes Sona as a 24/7 AI virtual receptionist that can greet callers, answer questions, capture messages, use company documents and FAQs, and return call summaries and transcripts to the Quo workspace. It can be placed into call flows as backup coverage or used after hours.

That is a compelling native experience. Fix9's reason to exist in this comparison is not to duplicate Quo's inbox. It is to connect the receptionist to the wider Fix9 operating system for calls, leads, profiles, and home-service workflows.

Should you replace Quo?

Probably not just to get AI. If Quo already fits your team's calling and texting workflow, start by testing Sona. A business phone migration has real switching costs: number porting, team habits, call flows, integrations, and customer history.

Better decision rule: compare receptionist outcomes first. If Sona answers, qualifies, routes, and summarizes the way you need, keep the simpler architecture. If you want the inbound call to become a Fix9 lead or service workflow immediately, test Fix9 as the alternative.

Quo / OpenPhone AI receptionist FAQ

Is OpenPhone now called Quo?

Yes. The product previously known as OpenPhone now operates under the Quo brand. Older searches and links still commonly use the OpenPhone name, so this guide uses both terms for clarity.

Can Sona answer only after hours?

Quo says Sona can be added to call flows for busy-time backup or routed automatically after business hours.

Why would I choose Fix9 instead?

Choose based on the system you want to own the next action after the call. Quo keeps the workflow inside its collaborative phone workspace. Fix9 is designed to connect the call to a Fix9 lead and service-business workflow.

Don't switch phone systems just because AI is fashionable.

Choose the receptionist that creates the best next action for your team.
