Answered directly Weather policy explained · done instantly

Around 80% of all calls are the same standard questions. The assistant answers them instantly – your team only picks up when a human is really needed.

The problem

Sound familiar?

The phone rings exactly when the dock is packed and every pair of hands is needed.

Guests ask about opening hours, prices or the weather cancellation policy for the tenth time that day.

Group requests get lost because nobody could pick up.

In the evening you don’t know who called – or who has since booked with your competitor.

Every missed call is lost revenue. With a group booking, that’s easily several hundred euros.

The solution

How the AI phone assistant works

  1. 1

    A call comes in

    The assistant picks up instantly – around the clock, even when the line is busy.

  2. 2

    Standard questions are answered directly

    Opening hours, prices, availability, directions, weather policy – trained individually for your business.

  3. 3

    Callback requests are captured

    Name, number and request land with your team immediately – e.g. as a message to your phone or into your CRM.

  4. 4

    Your team calls back when it suits

    After the rush, with all the details at a glance.

At the start of every call, callers are transparently informed that they are speaking with a digital assistant.

When a single workflow is not enough

An enterprise AI model with its own agent team

A language model that knows your business – your documents, your processes, your language. Plus agents that do not just answer but work, with roles and permissions like real staff. Some people call that an enterprise operating system.

  • Prompt engineering is the entry level – we work with loop and graph engineering.
  • Agents check their own output and fetch missing information themselves.
  • Clear roles, clear handovers, clear points where a person signs off.
  • Hosted in the EU or on your own infrastructure.

All year round

Invoice and bank reconciliation – fully automated

Every morning the system assigns each transaction its matching document, forwards it to your bookkeeping and reports anything missing – until it turns up. Before the monthly close it checks that everything your accountant needs is complete.

  • It recognises bulk payments and payment processors on its own.
  • It nets out cancellations and refunds against each other.
  • It learns recurring exceptions such as tax office debits or bank fees.

Every day

An Instagram channel that posts every day — without anyone sitting at it daily.

One feed post every afternoon, one story every morning — scheduled automatically by the seasonal calendar. Only real photos from the venue’s own photo pool make it into the feed; a person approves every post before it goes live.

  • Only real photos of the venue — no AI image replaces the real view of the jetty.
  • The AI writes the caption and designs promotional banners, matched to season and offer.
  • A rejection is remembered — the next selection fits better.

About

Who’s behind this

Alexander Schwärzler · Managing Director of Adam Holding GmbH, Hard, Austria

I don’t build automation on a drawing board – I build it for my own business. As co-owner of a water sports and hospitality operation on Lake Constance, I know the seasonal trade first-hand, and I introduced the AI phone assistant first where I personally felt every missed call.

Before that: 8 years of project management and international procurement. I speak the language of businesses, not IT departments.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Does the assistant sound like a robot?

No. Modern AI voices sound natural and hold real conversations. Hear for yourself: call the demo number +43 557 432 926.

What happens with questions the assistant can’t answer?

It captures a callback request – with name, number and topic. Nothing gets lost.

How long does setup take?

Typically 1–2 weeks from order to go-live, including a test phase.

Do I need new equipment?

No. Your existing number can be forwarded, or you receive a new one. Nothing needs to be installed.

What does a missed call cost?

Do the maths: a group booking of 10 people at €35 each – gone, because nobody picked up. The assistant costs less than one lost group per month.

Can I test it first?

Yes – call the demo number. On request we also set up a no-obligation test phase for your business.
