The Missed Calls Cost Notary Publics Clients and Revenue
After-Hours Calls Go Unanswered: Missed Opportunities for Critical Documents
Many notary clients require urgent services outside business hours—such as signing a Power of Attorney (POA) for a hospital admission or completing I-9 verification for a job start. With 27% of after-hours calls going unanswered, notary businesses lose high-value clients who need immediate service. For example, a client needing remote notarization of a real estate deed before a closing deadline may switch to a competitor offering 24/7 availability. The Secretary of State’s Office mails the Commission certificate within one week of receiving a properly executed application, so delays in scheduling can jeopardize timely notarization and client trust.
Scheduling Delays Due to Manual Coordination: Bottlenecks in Commission Renewal and Remote Notarization
Applicants must sign notary applications in front of another notary public, creating a chain dependency that often delays the process by up to 14 days. This is especially problematic during peak periods like the 6-month window before a Massachusetts notary public commission expires. For instance, a notary renewing their commission under the Perkins Act must coordinate with another notary to witness their signature, and without automation, this can result in missed deadlines. Remote notarization appointments for Affidavits or Advanced Health Care Directives are also delayed due to manual calendar checks, reducing client satisfaction and increasing the risk of non-compliance.
High Cost of Human Staffing: Unnecessary Overhead for Notary Businesses
Hiring a full-time receptionist for a Notary Public Services business costs $3,000–$5,000/month, yet many notaries only need support during peak hours. This fixed cost is unsustainable, especially when commissions last seven years under Massachusetts law. For a solo notary handling 15–20 appointments per week, the monthly staffing cost can exceed 40% of net revenue. Additionally, human staff may not be trained in critical processes like I-9 verification, venue compliance, or proper Notary seal application, increasing the risk of errors and liability.

Why Notary Public Services Choose Answrr
Capture More Clients After Hours
Your AI receptionist captures after-hours calls for critical services like remote notarization of a will, I-9 verification for employment, or notarization of a deed. For example, a client calling at 10:30 PM to schedule a notary appointment for a loan closing can book instantly—reducing the risk of losing the deal. With 85% of callers who reach voicemail never returning, an AI system ensures no opportunity is lost, even during holidays or weekends.
Automate Scheduling for Complex Services
Automate scheduling for complex services like Advanced Health Care Directives, which require specific venue compliance and witness rules. The AI can verify eligibility, confirm the client’s identity, and schedule a remote notarization session within 3 minutes—reducing the average scheduling delay from 14 days to under 24 hours. It also handles follow-ups for incomplete documents, such as missing Notary seal impressions or unsigned Affidavits.
Professional, Trustworthy AI That Sounds Human
The AI receptionist uses Rime Arcana voice technology to sound indistinguishable from a human, ensuring a professional tone during sensitive calls. It can confirm the client’s identity, verify the venue for remote notarization, and guide them through the Perkins Act compliance steps. For example, it can prompt a client to provide a government-issued ID and verify the document type before scheduling, reducing errors and improving audit readiness.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We used to lose 30% of after-hours calls—especially for urgent Power of Attorney signings. Now, our AI receptionist books I-9 verifications and remote notarizations 24/7. Last month, a client called at 11:45 PM to notarize a deed for a closing the next day. The AI scheduled it instantly, and we completed the remote notarization using a secure platform with a valid Notary seal. We closed the deal and kept the client for future services.”

“The AI remembers past clients and their preferences—like when a senior client needs a notary public for senior citizens service. It recalls their last appointment was for an Advanced Health Care Directive and automatically offers a 15-minute follow-up. This personal touch has increased repeat bookings by 40% and reduced onboarding time for new clients by 50%.”

“Setting up took less than 10 minutes. I just answered a few questions about my services—like whether I offer remote notarization for POAs and I-9 verification. The AI now handles notary public commission renewal inquiries, confirming the client’s expiration date and guiding them through the Perkins Act requirements. It even reminds them to sign the application in front of another notary. Our renewal rate has increased by 25% since implementation.”
