How Nuteq helps

How does an AI receptionist handle callers who speak Bahasa Indonesia?

Nuteq answers your number in English and switches to Bahasa Indonesia the moment a caller speaks it, as long as Indonesian is one of the languages you have added to your agent. From there the call runs in Indonesian: the agent asks the intake questions you wrote, such as the car’s make or what the problem is, answers from your price list and policies, and books a time from your real availability. If a family member takes the phone and talks in English, it follows them back. You get the recording, a transcript in the caller’s own words, and a short summary, so the technician knows what to expect before the customer walks in. Indonesian-speaking answering services are uncommon, and voicemail leaves the customer waiting for a callback. Indonesian is part of every Nuteq plan.
