A digital receptionist for visitor enquiries.

A conversational AI avatar for kiosks and reception environments. It greets visitors, answers common questions interactively and points people to the right place. Built by SHIOQ's principal advisor as a demonstration of what a scoped Build delivers.

The Challenge

Visitors ask the same questions all day

Directions, opening hours, which service is where, who to ask: a reception desk answers these on repeat while staff are needed elsewhere. After hours, or at an unstaffed entrance, the questions still arrive and nobody is there to answer them.

The Solution

A talking avatar at the front door

Spoken and on-screen answers

Visitors ask in plain language, by voice or touch. The avatar replies out loud and shows the answer on screen, so it works in a noisy lobby as well as a quiet one.

Grounded in your own information

Opening hours, services, directions and the questions your desk hears most are supplied by the business. The avatar answers from that material and says so when something is outside it.

Hands over to people

For anything beyond its brief, the avatar shows how to reach staff or takes a message, so a visitor is never left without a next step.
