Twenty-two years of
answering the phone.

Hostcomm has built and run contact-centre technology since 2004. The platform trusted by BT, HomeServe and Scottish Power in the UK came to the US in 2024 as Hostcomm LLC — same engineers, same software, US-region infrastructure and a Miami office.

We are not a startup and we are not a reseller. We write the software, run the servers, answer the support line and sign month-to-month contracts — because after two decades we would rather be judged on this quarter's service than on a three-year lock-in.

Proven Technology

Not a beta product. The dialer, the visual-assistance tool and the AI layer have each been in production for years, across 500+ deployments.

A named person, not a queue

Every US customer and partner has a named contact who returns calls the same business day, with direct access to the engineers who built the product.

Our Journey

Every product on this timeline
is still running.

Twenty-two years, seven turning points, nothing retired. The dialer we shipped in 2008 is the ancestor of Connecta; the video tool from 2014 is OnSight; the analytics from 2019 became the Persona AI platform.

2004In service today

Founded in the UK

Hosted telephony

Hostcomm Ltd launched as one of the UK’s first hosted telephony providers — cloud voice before ‘cloud’ was a category. Some of that first generation of customers are still with us.

2008In service today

Predictive dialer

Now Connecta

Our own predictive dialer released to UK sales and collections teams operating under Ofcom’s abandoned-call rules — compliance engineered in from the first version, not added after a complaint.

2014In service today

Remote visual assistance

OnSight

Live video from a text link, with annotation and measurement, so an expert could resolve what would otherwise be a site visit. Deployed at BT, HomeServe and social-housing providers.

2019In service today

AI on every call

Now Persona analytics

Automated compliance, sentiment and behaviour scoring across recorded calls — the analytics layer that taught us where AI belongs in a contact centre and where it doesn’t.

2023In service today

Autonomous AI agents

Persona AI platform

Voice, chat, email and SMS agents with adjustable autonomy per channel, long-term memory and warm handoff to a human — built on the analytics layer, not bolted onto a demo.

2024In service today

US expansion

Hostcomm LLC, Miami

Hostcomm LLC established in Miami on US-region AWS: the same platform and the same engineering team, with local support and a US regulatory model — TCPA controls and STIR/SHAKEN attestation via our US carrier.

One vendor, five products

Connecta · Persona · OnSight · Smart Websites · Communify UC

The portfolio brought under one contract and one partner programme, with a named partner manager — the one-stop shop for the businesses and partners we serve.

How we work

A safe pair of hands
is a set of habits.

We write the software

Dialer, AI platform, visual assistance, websites, UC — built by our own engineers. When something needs changing there is no vendor to escalate to; the person who can fix it works here.

We run it ourselves

A dedicated AWS instance per customer, in the region your data belongs in, operated by the team that built it. 300+ servers under our own management.

We sign short contracts

Month-to-month, same-day setup, and a free proof of concept on your own data first. We would rather earn the renewal every month than negotiate a lock-in once.

We answer the phone

A named contact in the US who returns calls the same business day, 24/7 support across both offices, and a partner manager whose direct line is on the website.

Our Approach

Legacy to AI,
without the chaos

We understand that transformation doesn't happen overnight. Our approach is pragmatic, proven, and designed to deliver ROI from day one.

Crawl, Walk, Run

We help customers transition from legacy systems to AI automation without causing chaos. Start with AI analytics on existing calls, add AI-assisted routing, then graduate to fully autonomous agents — at your pace.

Reduce Operating Costs

AI agents take the routine interactions — order status, appointment booking, after-hours calls — so the people you pay for judgement spend their time on the calls that need it. We measure the effect on your own call mix in a free proof of concept before you commit.

Fill Resource Gaps

Downsizing doesn’t have to mean degraded service. AI agents fill the gaps left by reduced headcount — handling after-hours, peak overflow, and routine queries while human agents focus on complex, high-value interactions.

Increase Sales with Innovation

Predictive dialing, AI-powered lead scoring, personalised outreach at scale, and real-time conversation analytics give sales teams the edge — turning data into revenue with every interaction.

US Compliance

Built for the
US regulatory landscape

The controls US operators need are in the platform, with the audit trail to prove what it did. Whether a campaign is compliant depends on your consent and policies; the tooling and the evidence are ours to provide.

DNC scrubbing, calling windows, consent records and audit log built into the dialer
