Use Cases in Practice
Integrating Runbear’s smart AI agents with your Rinkel setup turns your business phone system into a dynamic, AI-powered teammate. Instead of combing through voicemails, scattered call logs, or juggling between the Rinkel dashboard and Slack, your team interacts with the AI agent for anything related to Rinkel—requesting call summaries, searching transcripts, right from their team chat. For example, after a busy sales day, the AI agent can automatically post a summary of all answered and missed calls in Slack each evening. Or, when a voicemail is left, the agent instantly summarizes its content for the whole support team, ensuring nothing gets missed or delayed. Need metrics for a weekly team review? Just ask: 'What were our top call times this week?' and get a chart in seconds. And when searching past conversations, the agent understands questions like, 'Who called last Tuesday about the new contract?' and surfaces the relevant transcript.

Rinkel vs Rinkel + AI Agent: Key Differences
Runbear transforms Rinkel from a standalone phone system into a smart, collaborative team platform powered by AI agents. Instead of relying on manual reporting, scattered call records, and delayed task hand-offs, teams gain instant access to Rinkel data, automated summaries, and real-time collaboration inside Slack, Teams, or Discord. This shift eliminates context-switching and manual work, letting teams focus on meaningful conversations and better customer follow-up.
Implementation Considerations
Rolling out Rinkel with Runbear integration requires careful planning and clear expectations. Teams must ensure that relevant Rinkel accounts are linked, with permissions properly granted for the AI agent to access transcripts and analytics data. Initial setup is streamlined, but some onboarding may be needed so team members know how to interact with the AI agent for daily tasks. Change management is key: teams should designate usage guidelines, clarify which info gets shared in team channels, and train on best practices for privacy and data governance. It’s also important to review the cost-benefit tradeoff—automated reporting and faster decision-making often outweigh the upfront investment in AI agent deployment, especially as teams grow. Finally, make sure everyone is comfortable letting the AI agent handle routine info retrieval, freeing people for higher-value work.
