Never miss another job.
An AI receptionist that picks up every call — after hours, on a roof, hands full. It takes the job details like a real receptionist and texts you the summary before you have put your tools down. Nights, weekends and holidays included, because that is when the calls you lose actually come in.
$1,299 setup · $699/month · compare it to what a receptionist costs, not to your software
The right thing to compare it to
Wages, not software
Ask what it would cost to have someone answering that phone.
Not a full-time hire — just somebody covering five in the evening to eight in the morning, and Saturdays. Work out the hourly rate you would actually have to pay for that, times those hours, every month. That is the number this replaces. Put it next to your other software and of course it looks expensive; put it next to a wage and it does not.
It does not call in sick, and it does not only work Tuesdays.
A part-timer covers the hours you pay for. This covers all of them, including the statutory holiday when someone's furnace dies and they ring the first three numbers on Google. You are not buying a cheaper receptionist — you are buying the hours nobody was ever covering.
One recovered job usually covers the month.
Work out your own average job value and ask how many you would need to save. For most trades businesses the answer is one, sometimes two. We are not going to invent a percentage for you — use your own number, because you know it better than we do.
Why calls slip away
The 4pm problem
The call you miss is the job you lose.
Most people who reach voicemail do not leave one. They dial the next number on the list. The call is not delayed, it is gone — and you never find out it happened.
It asks the questions you would ask.
Name, address, what is wrong, how urgent. Configured around your trade, so the answers are actually useful and you can price the job without a follow-up call.
A text lands the moment the call ends.
Full summary, caller number, and a tap-to-call-back link. Read it between jobs and ring back while you are still the first one who responded.
