The #1 AI Phone Answering for New York Museums & Art Galleries24/7 AI Answering for New York Museums & Art Galleries

Understaffed Front Desks During Peak Hours

Museums and galleries in Manhattan often lack sufficient staff to answer phone calls during high-traffic times, leading to missed opportunities from donors, event planners, and art collectors in New York.

High Cost of Human Staffing

Hiring full-time receptionists in New York City costs $28.50/hour including benefits, making it unsustainable for seasonal or small galleries with fluctuating call volumes.
