Tyler Fikowski and ATP AI, Sales and Marketing build customer-facing AI chatbots for businesses across Canada, headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, with 76 bots built so far and counting. A resort in Mexico, Calgary's largest locksmith, a hotel in Banff National Park, a travel agency, a contractor who cannot answer the phone from a job site. Here is what we built, what each one does, and how yours gets built.
Most pages about AI chatbots for Canadian businesses are written by people who have never put one on a live phone line. This one is different.
Meet Kaylee. She is our receptionist. She is an AI, she answers her own line around the clock, and you can call her right now and ask her anything about what we do.
Call Kaylee, our AI receptionist
Ask her what ATP does. Ask her to book you a call. Try to trip her up.
Here's the thing I tell every owner on the first call: the chatbot is not the hard part.
Anyone can spin up a bot that says hello. The hard part is the handoff. What happens at 9:40pm when a caller wants a price you have not published? What happens when the bot does not know? What happens when a real person needs to take over mid-conversation? Every build on this page was shaped around those three questions, because that is where cheap chatbots fall apart and where a proper customer-facing AI earns its keep.
In one paragraph: ATP AI, Sales and Marketing builds customer-facing AI chatbots for Canadian businesses on an AI chatbot software that will cost you $100 a month, trained on your prices, hours, services and calendar. They answer the phone, the website chat and text messages when your team cannot, book the next step, and hand off to a human when a human is needed. We have built 76 so far. Calgary is home base, the work runs across Canada and around the world.
I was the first salesperson through the door at a startup and scaled it to nine cities, 136 internal reps and over 70 contractors across six countries. The lesson that survived all of it: a lead that does not get answered is a lead you paid for and gave away. That is the problem every build below exists to fix.
Every card is a real business with a real build. Some clients are named. Others are described by industry and outcome instead. All of them are described the same way, in plain words, with no numbers we cannot stand behind.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Answers guest questions when the front desk is busy or closed and hands real booking enquiries to a person, so a family planning a trip at midnight gets an answer instead of voicemail.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Calgary's largest locksmith. An after-hours AI agent answers the calls that used to hit voicemail when the shop was closed, and hands anything that needs a person to the team.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Answers inbound questions and routes each enquiry to the right person on the team instead of leaving it in a shared inbox until somebody notices.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Takes quote requests while the crews are on site and books the estimate, so the owner is not returning calls from the truck at the end of the day.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Handles the questions the front desk hears all day, check-in times, parking, what is nearby, day or night, and passes anything that needs a person to the desk.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Captures trip enquiries, asks the questions an agent would ask first, and hands qualified travellers to a human agent with the details already written down.
AI chatbot / receptionist
Answers after-hours calls and books the site visit. The crew is on site all day. The phone still gets picked up.
AI development
Not every build is a chatbot. We also do custom AI development for Canada's oldest ALE firm, and built a recruiting funnel for Niagara Clearview Lighting. That work lives on the AI integration page.
Notice what is not on those cards: no percentages, no invented lead counts, no invented savings. Each client knows their own numbers. What we will tell you is what the build does and the problem it removed, and we are happy to talk through any of them on a call.
Kaylee is on the line right now
Or open the chat bubble in the corner of this page and type to her. Same Kaylee, same knowledge base, different channel.
Kaylee is our own AI receptionist, live on her own line. She knows our services, our hours and our calendar, she talks like a person rather than a script, and when she does not know something she says so and gets a human. Every build on this page follows the same pattern as Kaylee, trained on somebody else's business.
That last part matters. You are not buying a generic bot with your logo on it. We sit down with you, learn how you talk to customers, load the knowledge base with your real answers, wire her into the phone, the website chat, text messaging and the calendar you already use, and set the handoff rules. Then we test her with real conversations before she meets a customer.
Want to see the full list of jobs she handles, from customer support to recruiting to following up old leads? The Kaylee page has all of it.
Three steps. The same three for a Calgary locksmith and a resort in Mexico. What changes is the scope inside each one.
We meet over video call with AI transcription and interview you and whoever answers the phone today. We map the conversations that actually happen, the ones that book money and the ones that waste time. We agree what the AI answers, what it books, where it hands off, and what done looks like. Written down, fixed scope.
We build on an AI chatbot software that will cost you $100 a month, against your real data, not a demo. Knowledge base, calendar, phone, chat and text, the handoff rules, the after-hours path. Your first bot is up and taking a phone call within five business days. Then we run real conversations through it and fix what breaks before a customer ever finds it.
We refine it with you for a few weeks and it is rolled out to your customers in under a month. Your team gets trained on the thing that now exists, with documentation written for the people who have to live with it.
AI does not fail because the technology is wrong. It fails because the people around it were never brought along. That is why handover is a phase and not an email, and why training your team on AI is a separate offer when you want it done properly.
Straight answer: $100 a month to run.
The software you need is $100 a month. On top of that, you can build the bot yourself, or we build it for you starting at $3,000 CAD. After that the only fees are the SMS, email or call fees, which pass through Twilio at their rates.
Here is the pricing, plainly:
What moves the scope inside a build is simple to name: how many channels, how many humans in the handoff, what the AI has to read from and write to, and how much your business knows that is not written down anywhere yet. Getting it out of your head is often the biggest part of the job. If the honest answer is that you do not need a build yet, you will hear that too. Book the scoping call and bring the mess. We will find the scope together.
ATP AI, Sales and Marketing is headquartered in Calgary, Alberta, which is why so many of the builds above are Alberta businesses. It is not a limit. We do business all over the world and have built chatbots all over the world, and a bot that lives on the phone and the website does not care what country the owner sleeps in.
The process is the same wherever you are. We meet over video call with AI transcription and take you through it step by step. You will have your first bot up for a phone call within five business days, we refine it together for a few weeks, and it is rolled out to your customers in under a month.
If you are an owner reading this and the phone is the bottleneck, start with AI for your customers. If the bottleneck is you, and the chatbot is one piece of a bigger problem, AI for owners is the page that maps the whole business first.
A chatbot answers typed messages, usually on a website or by text. An AI receptionist does that and also answers the phone with a voice, books appointments, takes messages and transfers calls. Most of the builds on this page do both, because the same knowledge base runs every channel. Kaylee is the example: call her or chat with her above and it is the same bot either way.
$100 a month to run. That is the software. A general build is $5,000 CAD, and the first hundred customers get it for $3,000 CAD. We have built 76 so far. After the build, the only other fees are SMS, email and call usage through Twilio.
Yes. The software is $100 a month whether we build the bot or you do. If you have the time and want to learn it, build it yourself. If you want it done and taking calls within five business days, we build it for you.
An AI chatbot software that will cost you $100 a month, which we run in production for our own businesses. It handles the phone, chat, text, calendar and CRM in one place, so the AI has one set of data to work from. When a client needs something the platform does not do, such as the custom AI development we do for Canada's oldest ALE firm, we build it custom and connect it.
Yes. Calgary is home base, and the builds above include Vancouver, Banff and a resort in Mexico. We do business all over the world and have built chatbots all over the world. A chatbot is built and managed remotely over video call, so location changes nothing about how the build runs.
It is built not to. The AI answers from a knowledge base we build with you, checks its answers against it, and when a question falls outside what it knows it says so and hands the conversation to a person. No invented prices, no wrong hours, no guessing. Try it on Kaylee before you buy anything.
Your first bot is up and taking a phone call within five business days. We refine it with you for a few weeks, and it is rolled out to your customers in under a month. The thing that stretches a timeline is how quickly your team can answer the knowledge questions, so come to the first call with whoever answers the phone today.
Start with the offer page to see what customer-facing AI does for your business, or skip ahead and book the scoping call. Either way, bring the messy version. That is the one we can help with.
