Our take
The frustration surrounding calling businesses is a universal sentiment. Nobody enjoys long hold times when chasing down an order, or voicemail when trying to make a late reservation at a restaurant. However, through the power of AI, the broken calling experience can be repaired.
Slang is a platform designed to tackle this problem head-on, by automatically answering calls for restaurants, retailers, and other businesses. It is capable of delivering accurate responses which enhance customer service - ultimately boosting revenue - while also streamlining operations.
Emerging from stealth mode in 2023, Slang landed early funding which gave it some great momentum. It has worked to integrate its product with reservation management platforms while unveiling a host of advanced functionalities. A further injection of funding in 2026 supports the broadening of its service capacity as it aims to help more businesses eliminate missed calls.
