Reviews from Self-Employed People
Eleni Vardas
‍Software Developer

"In the past, every phone call would disrupt my workflow. fonio now pre-filters everything. I'm only getting the transcripts in the Slack channel now. Anyone who really needs urgent technical assistance will be put through; the rest will be handled automatically. "The best investment for my deep work sessions."

Lennard Visser
‍Photographer

"When I'm behind the camera, I can't get to it." Customers can simply call the nearest photographer. fonio is now available 24/7, gathers the key details, and sends me a summary. "It looks extremely professional when the AI asks the customer about their budget right away, instead of just getting the voicemail."

Matteo Bianchi
‍Management Consultant

"My biggest time-wasters were callers who just wanted to 'ask me something' quickly." Fonio is doing that now. I review the minutes and decide who gets an appointment. "That saves me hours of unnecessary small talk every week."

Maja Nilsson
‍Marketing

"My phone used to vibrate constantly on weekends because of work-related messages. I have clear boundaries when it comes to the Fonio number. After 6 p.m., the AI takes over completely and schedules appointments directly in my calendar. And I don't feel guilty anymore about ignoring calls.
