About Zero Person

Swiss–UK engineering for operational phone automation

Zero Person began in the Oxford University Innovation Incubator (OUI) — Oxford University Innovation’s programme for founders building ventures outside University-owned IP — just before the COVID pandemic. There, the first voice-automation prototypes were shaped alongside operators who could not afford another missed call. Today the platform is engineered in Switzerland and the United Kingdom, combining Swiss precision in systems design with deep familiarity with UK regulatory and operational reality.

We build human-fluent voice systems for operators who cannot afford dropped calls, margin leakage, or compliance gaps — integrated with your EPOS, garage management, and pharmacy workflows, not generic chat widgets.

The fully automated company

In the most automated scenario we build towards, you are the CEO of a company made up of AI agents — reception, triage, scheduling, and follow-up — each governed by your policies. You set strategy and exceptions; agents run the volume. Humans step in only where judgement, empathy, or regulation demands it.

Pain-point precision for UK operators — built to scale globally

Each vertical uses operational language your teams recognise on day one. Click a live voice demo to hear the agent in action.

Sector 1 · Food establishments & QSR

Direct Order Capture & Aggregator Margin Protection

Stop losing 20–30% of your margins to delivery platforms because your phone lines are jammed during the Friday night rush.

For high-volume UK takeaways, restaurants, and dark kitchens, phone lines are a direct line to profitability—but peak weekend rushes mean abandoned calls and lost revenue. Our Voice AI answers infinite concurrent lines instantly, cutting out background kitchen noise to process complex menu modifications flawlessly.

Crucially, it protects your independent margins by capturing direct orders over the phone, steering customers away from high-commission aggregator apps (Just Eat, Deliveroo, Uber Eats). Engineered with absolute compliance for local regulations, the agent actively prompts for and logs strict allergen declarations required under UK law (Natasha’s Law), passing clean, structured order tickets directly into your local or cloud-based EPOS system.

Sector 2 · Automotive workshops & MOT garages

Autonomous Workshop Diary Management & Uninterrupted Throughput

Mechanics shouldn’t have to drop their tools, wipe grease off their hands, and lose billable hours just to book an MOT.

In a busy independent garage or multi-site autocentre network, every minute a technician spends at the front desk is a loss in workshop efficiency. Zero Person acts as your dedicated virtual service advisor. It operates 24/7 to capture the chaotic morning drop-off call volume (8 AM – 9 AM) that typically ends up in missed voicemails.

The AI understands complex automotive phrasing, captures vehicle registrations, and integrates directly with your Garage Management System (GMS) to schedule MOT tests, diagnostics, and routine servicing. It respects strict DVSA slot timing allocations and calendar constraints, cross-checks bay availability, and automatically sends instant SMS confirmations to the motorist—ensuring your ramps stay full and your technicians stay under the cars.

Sector 3 · Life sciences & community pharmacies

Compliant Patient Triage & Repeat Prescription Automation

Relieve the compounding clinical strain of endless “Is my prescription ready?” calls so your pharmacists can practice at the top of their license.

Community pharmacies across the UK are facing unprecedented operational and funding pressures. Staff hours are eaten up by repetitive administrative calls that clog up phone lines, blocking patients who require urgent clinical care. Our Voice AI securely automates the frontline. It safely captures and structures repeat prescription requests, handles queries regarding opening hours or stock availability, and relieves intense pressure on the dispensary team.

By utilizing deterministic triage rules aligned with GPhC governance standards, the AI handles low-risk requests autonomously. The moment a query requires professional human oversight or clinical intervention, the agent securely routes the call and patient context directly to the pharmacist. This frees your team to focus on high-value, revenue-generating clinical consults (such as Pharmacy First initiatives) while maintaining flawless cross-border data protection compliance.

Infrastructure

Swiss & UK Engineering. Elastic Global Telephony.

Zero Person is designed and built by engineers in Switzerland and the United Kingdom, with origins in the Oxford University Innovation Incubator (OUI) just before COVID. Our teams understand strict compliance frameworks (GDPR, GPhC, and DVSA standards) and build for borderless deployment. Operating on a hyper-low latency telecom backbone, our acoustic models handle diverse regional UK accents, Swiss and European inflections, and international speech with ease. Whether you are an independent operator in the Midlands or a multi-national group scaling across Europe and North America, our system delivers instant human fluency without a single dropped packet.

How it works

From operational blueprint to live lines in three steps

  1. 01

    Operational blueprint

    We map your call flows, compliance gates, integrations (EPOS, GMS, PMR), and escalation rules — tuned for UK regulation and your global rollout plan.

  2. 02

    Agent deployment

    Industry-tuned voice models go live on your numbers with deterministic triage, allergen prompts, DVSA diary logic, or GPhC routing as required.

  3. 03

    Measured outcomes

    Structured tickets, transcripts, and analytics flow to your stack — margin protected, bays filled, pharmacists freed for clinical work.

Platform

Enterprise-ready without enterprise friction

Compliance first

GDPR, GPhC, and DVSA-aware workflows with retention policies, access controls, and exportable audit logs.

Human handoff

Warm transfer to a pharmacist, service advisor, or duty manager when clinical or policy thresholds are met.

Your stack

EPOS, GMS, PMR, CRM, and SMS confirmations — structured payloads, not raw audio alone.

Analytics

Intent tagging, margin recovery metrics, bay utilisation signals, and triage dashboards for ops leads.

FAQ

Common questions

Where was Zero Person founded and built?

The company’s roots are in the Oxford University Innovation Incubator (OUI), run by Oxford University Innovation, just before the COVID pandemic. The platform is now engineered in Switzerland and the United Kingdom, with a UK operating base at Oxford Science Park.

Is this built for UK compliance frameworks?

Yes — Natasha’s Law allergen capture, GPhC triage routing, DVSA diary constraints, and GDPR data handling are design requirements, not afterthoughts. We support multi-region deployment for global groups.

Can it integrate with our EPOS or garage management system?

Structured order tickets, bay bookings, and prescription requests are passed to your existing systems via API or agreed integration patterns during onboarding.

How do live voice demos work?
