About Us | Linea

Our Story

Linea was born from a simple observation: service businesses are losing customers every day — not because of bad work, but because no one picks up the phone.

Plumbers on job sites. Clinic staff juggling check-ins. Law firms in back-to-back consultations. The pattern was the same everywhere: great businesses losing great customers to missed calls, voicemail, and hold times.

We built Linea to fix that. An AI receptionist that answers every call with the professionalism your business demands, books appointments directly into your systems, and never takes a day off — so you can focus on the work that matters.

What We Believe

Every Call Deserves an Answer

Behind every ring is a real person with a real need. Whether it's a midnight plumbing emergency or a patient booking their first appointment, no call should go unanswered.

Small Businesses Deserve Big Tools

Enterprise-grade reception shouldn't require enterprise budgets. Linea gives independent operators and growing firms the same always-on availability as national brands.

AI That Works Alongside People

We don't replace your team — we give them superpowers. Linea handles the overflow, the after-hours, and the routine so your people can focus on high-value work.

Founded By

Hafiz Kanji

Founder & CEO Connect on LinkedIn

Hafiz is a seasoned Go-to-Market and Business Development leader with a deep specialization in artificial intelligence and data automation. Prior to founding Linea AI, he served as the VP of Data & AI at enterprise leaders including Nasdaq and DealMaker, where he led strategies for complex, large-scale data solutions.

Despite his enterprise background, the inspiration for Linea came from the local community. As an active member of the Richmond Hill Board of Trade, Hafiz saw firsthand the everyday operational challenges that small and mid-sized service businesses face. He recognized that missed calls and the inability to provide 24/7 customer service were directly resulting in lost revenue and growth bottlenecks. Driven by this clear market need, Hafiz decided to leverage his enterprise AI expertise to solve this crucial problem, creating an accessible, cutting-edge AI receptionist tailored specifically for service industries.
