Does Miss Callaway work with Grasshopper?

Miss Callaway does not have a direct native integration with Grasshopper, but the two can work together through call forwarding. Grasshopper is a virtual phone system that lets you set up business numbers and extensions, but it doesn't include a live answering or AI receptionist feature on its own. The practical workaround is straightforward: you configure your Grasshopper number to forward unanswered calls to Miss Callaway's provided number, so when no one picks up, the AI receptionist handles the call instead of sending it to voicemail.

This setup works reasonably well for basic call coverage, but it does come with some limitations worth understanding. Because the calls are forwarded rather than natively routed, you may lose some context about which number the caller originally dialed, depending on how Grasshopper passes along caller ID information. For businesses with multiple extensions or departments set up inside Grasshopper, the forwarding setup can also get more complicated, since you'd need to decide which extensions forward out to Miss Callaway and which stay internal.

If your business runs primarily on Grasshopper and you're looking for AI receptionist coverage, this kind of call-forwarding arrangement is a common approach across the industry. It's not unique to Grasshopper — most virtual phone systems that lack built-in AI answering rely on the same method. The key is testing your forwarding rules carefully to make sure calls aren't dropping or going to voicemail before they reach the AI receptionist. A brief test call during setup goes a long way toward catching any configuration issues early.
