How does the Better Business Bureau rating system work?

Ratings range from A+ to F, based on factors like customer complaints, transparency, and responsiveness. Customer reviews do not impact the BBB rating. BBB also seeks and uses information directly from businesses and public data sources. Please find more information about our rating system.

BBB ratings reflect how a business is likely to interact with customers. Ratings update automatically as new information is received. In some cases, a business's grade may be lowered if the BBB does not have sufficient information about the business despite requests for the information.

Alert

In July 2024, BBB investigated Air AI's business practices. This investigation was prompted by the nature of the complaints received by BBB. Consumers allege that the business fails to provide the software as advertised; fails to issue a refund when requested and fails to respond to written and phone inquiries.

On July 11, 2024, BBB sent the company a Business Practice Inquiry through email, to request the following information:
-The current quality assurance process in place, to ensure the software is functional before the sale;
-The solutions offered to consumers to resolve the software issues they may have;
-A copy of the current refund policy and process in place to ensure refunds are issued to consumers when requested;
-Please update your contact information on your website so that consumers make contact with the business and that there is no confusion regarding where your company is physically located; 

As of July 31, 2024, the business has not responded to BBB's request.

Consumers with outstanding concerns are still encouraged to file a complaint for BBB records, but may also wish to file a complaint with the Attorney General’s Office and/or the Federal Trade Commission.

On July 11, 2024, BBB requested Air AI to modify, substantiate, or discontinue claims made on their website (https://www.air.ai/) that read, “...100,000 sales and customer service reps at the tap of a button.”, ”...the world's first ever AI that can have full on 10-40 minute long phone calls that sound like a REAL human…”, ”...infinite memory, perfect recall, and can autonomously take actions across 5,000 plus applications…”, ”...It can do the entire job of a full time agent…”, ”...It just works 24/7/365.”, and ”...And Join 70,000+ Businesses”. Additionally, on the company's LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/joinair) it read, “The world's most advanced conversational AI.”, ”...the world's first ever AI that can have full on 10-40 minute long phone calls that sound like a REAL human…”, ”...infinite memory, perfect recall, and can autonomously take actions across 5,000 plus applications…”, ”...It can do the entire job of a full time agent…”, and ”...It just works 24/7/365.” Advertisers must be prepared to substantiate such claims per BBB's Code of Advertising.

Advertisers should be prepared to substantiate any objective claims or offers made before publication or broadcast. Upon request, they should present such substantiation promptly to the advertising medium or BBB. 1.2 Advertisements which are untrue, misleading, deceptive, fraudulent, falsely disparaging of competitors, or insincere offers to sell, shall not be used.
