What does an AI receptionist for tutoring centers do?
It answers your center's phone, website chat, e-mail and web forms the way a good front desk would, at any hour. It asks your intake questions, explains your programs from what you approved, books the session with the right tutor, confirms it and calls before the lesson. Families get an answer while they are still looking, not after they have signed up somewhere else.
Can it book an assessment or a first session?
Yes, if you offer one. Tell Lisa the session types you run, such as a diagnostic practice test, a language placement test or a first consultation, how long each one takes and which tutors give them. The AI offers those sessions on every channel and books them into the tutor's own calendar, with a confirmation to the family.
How does it match a learner with the right tutor?
From what you tell it. You list which tutor teaches which subjects, levels, exams or languages, and where and when each one works. The AI asks your intake questions, such as grade, subject, test date and goal, and then offers times only with the tutors your rules name for that learner.
Can parents and students reschedule or cancel on their own?
Yes, within your policy. A family can move or cancel a session by phone, chat, e-mail or form. The AI checks the tutor's calendar, offers open times and applies your notice period and make-up rules in your own words. Anything outside the policy is passed to the person you name.
Will it cut down on missed sessions and no-shows?
Reminder calls are made for exactly that. AI Auto-Call phones the learner or the parent before each session and takes the answer: yes confirms, no frees the hour for someone else, and a request for another time reaches your staff. A confirmation also goes out the moment a session is booked.
Does the AI tutor students or help with homework?
No. It is your front office, not a teacher. It answers questions about your programs, schedules, policies and tutors from what you approved, books and moves sessions, and passes anything about a student's progress or needs to your staff. The teaching stays with your tutors.
Is it a tutor answering service with people on the line?
No, the AI itself answers, on your own number, day and night, even when every room is busy. It does more than take a message: it answers the question, books the session or takes the message with the callback number read back. Calls your rules send to a person are transferred with a word on who is calling and why.
Does it work for test preparation and language schools, not only tutoring?
Yes. Anything sold as sessions or courses with a teacher works the same way: one-to-one tutoring services, test preparation courses and practice tests, group language classes and private conversation lessons, in person or online. You describe your programs once, and the AI answers questions about them and books them in the learner's own words.
Which languages can families use?
Their own. The phone answers each caller in their language, the website chat speaks 40 languages by text or voice, and a call can go to the colleague who speaks it. That counts for language schools and for parents who are more at ease in their first language.
How much does tutoring center software like this cost?
Zanus AI is priced per company, never per seat, so every tutor, teacher and coordinator works under one subscription, however many you add each term. You choose the modules your center needs, and the plans are on the pricing page.
How is students' information looked after, especially children's?
You set the rules. Call recording is off as shipped, each department receives only its own transcripts, and staff see only the departments you give them. The AI says nothing about a student beyond what your rules allow. Whether your set-up meets your own privacy obligations is for your center and its advisors to decide.
What is the difference between the 7-day free trial and the demo?
The free trial builds a sandbox around your own center from your website and runs for 7 days, with no card. The demo shows the AI front office ready-made, answering and booking for a sample tutoring center, and reaches your inbox in about 2 minutes with nothing to set up.
