How fast does the text go out after a missed call?
Within seconds. The caller immediately receives a message acknowledging the call, offering common links — forms, calendar, payments — and inviting a reply that lands in the team inbox.
Why does this matter for a school office?
Because calls cluster exactly when staff can't answer: morning drop-off, dismissal, event days. Text-back means those parents get engaged instantly instead of calling competitors — or worse, giving up on completing an enrollment inquiry.
Can the auto-text be customized by time or line?
Yes. Different messages for school hours versus evenings, admissions line versus main office, and busy seasons — each with its own links and tone, all in your school's voice.
What happens when the parent replies to the text?
The reply opens a two-way conversation in the shared inbox, tied to the family record, where staff pick it up with context — a phone call that became a manageable text thread.
