For many small and mid-sized businesses, phone calls are still the highest-intent customer touchpoint.
Yet they are also the most unstructured, untracked, and underutilized.
Telalive, built by GMIC.AI, is designed to change that — by transforming traditional landline calls into AI-ready, data-driven business assets.
Below are the most common questions business owners and AI partners ask us.
Why do businesses still lose valuable phone calls in 2025?
Despite advancements in CRM, ads, and automation, most SMBs still rely on:
- Traditional landlines
- Manual note-taking (or no notes at all)
- Voicemail after hours
- No visibility into call quality or outcomes
This leads to:
- Missed leads
- No call records
- No insights into customer intent
- No way to measure ROI from phone-driven traffic
In short, calls happen — but value disappears.
What exactly is Telalive?
Telalive is an AI-enabled landline assistant device that connects directly to a business phone system (RJ-11).
It works as a hardware bridge between real-world phone calls and AI software, enabling:
- Automatic call capture
- Real-time or post-call transcription
- Structured data output
- Seamless integration with AI platforms or internal systems
No mobile phones.
No apps for staff to learn.
No change to existing call behavior.
How is Telalive different from cloud phone systems or virtual numbers?
Cloud PBX systems require:
- Number migration
- Workflow changes
- Staff retraining
- Ongoing per-seat SaaS fees
Telalive works with the phone system you already have.
| Traditional Solutions | Telalive |
|---|---|
| Software-only | Hardware + AI |
| Requires new numbers | Works with existing landlines |
| App-dependent | Zero user behavior change |
| Limited real-world control | On-premise, always-on capture |
Telalive is built for real businesses with real phones.
What problems does Telalive actually solve for SMBs?
Telalive helps businesses:
- Capture 100% of inbound calls
- Convert conversations into searchable text
- Identify missed opportunities
- Track call-based leads from ads
- Enable after-hours intelligence (even when nobody answers)
For many SMBs, Telalive becomes the missing link between marketing spend and actual revenue conversations.
Can Telalive work with AI software or SaaS platforms?
Yes — this is where Telalive truly shines.
Telalive is designed as an AI-ready hardware layer for:
- AI voice agents
- Call intelligence platforms
- Vertical SaaS (healthcare, legal, real estate, home services)
- CRM and analytics systems
Audio can be securely streamed or uploaded to your backend via Wi-Fi, enabling:
- ASR
- LLM-based summarization
- Intent detection
- Workflow automation
GMIC.AI supports OEM / ODM customization for AI partners.
Is Telalive replacing human staff or answering calls automatically?
No.
Telalive is not a robocall system and not designed to replace humans.
Instead, it:
- Listens
- Records (with consent/compliance alignment)
- Structures data
- Enables intelligence after the call
Think of Telalive as call infrastructure, not a chatbot.
What kind of businesses is Telalive best for?
Telalive is ideal for phone-centric SMBs, including:
- Auto services & repair shops
- Medical & dental offices
- Legal and insurance agencies
- Home services (plumbing, HVAC, roofing)
- Real estate offices
- Local retailers with high call volume
Anywhere calls = revenue, Telalive fits naturally.
How does Telalive fit into GMIC.AI’s broader product ecosystem?
GMIC.AI builds real-world voice intelligence hardware, including:
- Telalive – AI landline assistant
- Clinmic – medical wearable voice capture
- Bizmic – enterprise & sales wearable mic
- MIC04 / MIC05 – customizable voice hardware platforms
Together, they form a hardware-first AI data capture layer — designed for environments where software alone is not enough.
Why did GMIC.AI choose hardware instead of pure software?
Because real-world voice data is messy.
Noise, missed triggers, offline moments, user behavior — these problems are best solved at the hardware level, not after the fact.
With over 15 years of manufacturing experience and 50M+ devices shipped, GMIC.AI builds hardware that AI systems can trust.
What’s next for Telalive?
Telalive is evolving from a device into a call intelligence infrastructure:
- Deeper AI integrations
- Industry-specific workflows
- White-label OEM programs
- Subscription + hardware bundles
Our vision is simple:
Every phone call should be measurable, understandable, and valuable.
