The math on missed calls

Every call you miss is a job your competitor books

Your techs are on job sites. Your office closes at five. But your customers' pipes burst at midnight and their AC dies on Saturday. When nobody picks up, 78% of callers don't leave a voicemail — they call the next name on the list.

How it works

Your calls, answered — without hiring anyone

  1. 1

    Your phone rings

    Day, night, weekend, holiday — every call gets answered in seconds.

  2. 2

    The job gets booked

    The receptionist qualifies the caller and puts the appointment straight on your schedule.

  3. 3

    You stay in control

    Warm leads and emergencies go to a real person — you, your office, or your on-call tech.

Solutions

Voice, chat, or both — your customers just get answered

Both — Voice + Chat

Voice and chat working together so no lead slips through — on the phone or on your site.

Why shops trust it

An AI receptionist your customers won't hate

No phone trees, no pretending, no black box. Here's the deal we make with every shop we set up.

A real human gets every warm lead

The AI answers, qualifies, and books. The moment a caller needs a person, it hands off — with the full conversation attached, not a cold voicemail.

Emergencies get escalated, not scheduled

Gas smell, burst pipe, no heat in January — the receptionist recognizes an emergency, alerts your on-call person immediately, and directs callers to 911 or the utility line when that's the right move.

It never pretends to be human

Callers are told they're talking to your automated receptionist. No tricks — that honesty is why customers trust it, and it's the law in a growing number of states.

Books straight into your software

Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or a plain calendar — appointments land where your crew already looks, not in a separate inbox you have to check.
