Closing the books, phone ringing. Lorela takes it.

In closing season the phone is the enemy of focus, but a new client who can't get through calls another firm, and you don't want that. Lorela is an AI assistant for accounting firms: she takes the calls you can't get to, tells a new inquiry from a question from an existing client, and sends you a summary by email or in the app.

Updated November 8, 2026

How it works

  1. 1

    Set up forwarding once

    Dial a short code on your phone's keypad and the calls you don't answer go to the Lorela number. Your firm's number stays the same.

  2. 2

    Your phone still rings first

    You take calls first. Lorela steps in when you're closing the books and a call would only break your concentration.

  3. 3

    A summary after the call

    Who called, whether it's a new client or an existing one with a question, and what they need - by email or in the app.

What she handles for you

  • A new bookkeeping inquiry

    Notes the caller's request and the details they give about their business. You get back to them when you have a free moment outside the close.

  • An existing client with a question about documents

    With your contacts connected, she can greet an existing client by name. She passes their question on in the summary.

  • Closing season

    She can take several calls at once while you focus on the close. You find the inquiries and questions in your summaries and answer when you have room.

  • Discretion

    Only you get the summary of a call. Call transcripts are stored in our database in Frankfurt and deleted after a year; we never sell them.

7 days free, then $19 a month. Less than one lost job costs. Your plan has a monthly limit of call minutes. Once it is used up, Lorela takes a short message instead.

Frequently asked questions

What about confidentiality - what do I learn from a call that nobody else does?

Only you get the summary. Call transcripts are stored in our database in Frankfurt and deleted after a year; we never sell them. You'll find the whole path of a call at lorela.ai/bezpecnost.

Does she recognize an existing client and greet them by name?

Yes, if you have them saved in your contacts. She recognizes the phone number and greets them by name, not as an unknown caller.

Does it work during closing season?

Yes, it works all year with no difference. In closing season you just appreciate not having to pick up at all, and the inquiries wait in the summary for later.
