An Oakland answering service
that speaks both languages.
A taquería on International Blvd, a shop in Temescal, a boutique on College Ave, a plumber working deep East Oakland — they all lose the same thing when a call goes to voicemail. Kaizen builds you an AI receptionist that answers every call 24/7, in English and Spanish, books the job, and texts you the details.
Or call the live demo line right now: (510) 800-8974 — a 510 number, because Oakland is home turf.
Bilingual by default
Along International Blvd and through Fruitvale, a huge share of daily business happens in Spanish. Your receptionist greets every caller in English, answers in whichever language they use, and switches mid-call if the caller does.
Local, not a call center
Kaizen is a founder-run East Bay company — the people who build your agent are the ones who pick up when you call. Even our demo line is a 510 number, the same area code your Oakland customers dial from.
Live in 48 hours
One discovery call, then we build and train your agent on your services, hours, and pricing, and dry-run it before it takes a real Oakland call. If it isn’t live in 72 hours, setup is free.
From International Blvd to College Ave.
Fruitvale’s International Blvd corridor is one of the East Bay’s busiest small-business districts — as of mid-2026, local coverage still describes its storefronts as nearly always full, with much of the day-to-day commerce done in Spanish. Meanwhile Temescal, Rockridge, and Jack London Square run on appointments, reservations, and quotes. Two very different phone problems — one receptionist that handles both.
Whatever you run, it answers like it works there.
