For Service Businesses: An AI receptionist built and run for you
The AI Receptionist That Answers, Books and Dispatches. Around the Clock.

The Problem
Your Phone Is Your Front Door. Most Businesses Leave It Locked After 5.
Customers with an urgent problem don't leave voicemails. They call the next business on Google until someone picks up, and whoever answers first gets the job.
Service businesses miss calls for the same four reasons:
Hands Full
Your crew can't answer from a job site, and the office can only take one call at a time. Missed calls forward to your receptionist. Your team still rings first.
Busy Mornings
When calls stack up, everyone after the first caller hears voicemail and moves on. Your receptionist answers 10 or more callers at once.
Slow Callbacks
By the time a message gets returned, the customer has already booked someone else. Jobs get booked on the first call, with a text summary sent to you.
An answering service takes a message. A voicemail box takes nothing. Your AI receptionist answers, books and dispatches, on every call.
We build it around your services, your prices, your service area and your rules, then keep it tuned as your business changes.

Questions
Questions Owners Ask Before They Book
Don't see yours? Ask us on your free strategy call.
What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist is a voice agent that answers your business phone, talks with callers naturally, and takes action: capturing the job details, booking appointments, answering common questions, and transferring urgent calls to your team.
Will callers know they are talking to an AI?
It speaks naturally and answers from your real services and prices instead of a phone menu. If a caller asks for a person, it transfers them to your team.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your number. There are multiple custom solutions that we have for our clients. Calls can immediately forward to your AI Receptionist. Your phone can ring first and then forward. You can send nights and weekends straight to it. We work around how you work.
How much does an AI receptionist cost?
Plans start at $199/month, plus a one-time custom build-out scoped to what you need it to do. We map it out with you on a free strategy call.
What software does it connect to?
ServiceTitan, Jobber, Housecall Pro, FieldEdge, GoHighLevel, Google Calendar and Outlook, plus any other tool with an API.
Will it replace my office staff?
It frees your staff up so they don't have to worry about answering or missing calls. A lot of our clients have taken the staff who were tied up on the phones and moved them to sales, business development, collections and other revenue-generating and growth responsibilities.
