Field notes

The live sample is set in The Crooked Lantern, labeled a neighborhood bar with a few secrets; visitors choose an option to hear who picks up. The page describes adding greetings, branching responses, voices, and rarer messages, with previews available during the build. Its browser demo uses the visitor’s device voice and states that it places no call. A phone number is a separate step, currently handled with the team’s help.
