Water heater leaking in the garage.
My water heater is leaking everywhere.
Sorry to hear that. I can get a tech to you tomorrow 8 to 10. Does that work?
Yes, perfect.
The AI office for the trades
Answer. Book. Grow.
We give plumbers, HVAC techs, electricians and roofers an AI receptionist that picks up every call they can't, books the job and texts them the details, so no more work goes to voicemail.
Every call picked up
Nights, weekends and every time you're under a sink. Callers get a friendly voice instead of voicemail, so they don't hang up and call the next name on Google.
Booked, not just answered
It takes the name, address and problem, then books a slot you actually have free. You get a text the moment the call ends.
A person when it matters
Emergencies ring straight through to your cell, and anyone who asks for a human gets a callback. Nobody gets stuck in a loop.

About
