For HVAC, plumbing, roofing & detail shops
Every call you miss gets a text back in seconds. An AI receptionist answers, books the job on your calendar, and texts you the details. Emergencies ring straight through to your cell.
What missed calls cost you
Walking to your competitors each month
Our Receptionist plan is $349 a month. If it saves one job a month, it has paid for itself.
How it works
You keep your number. Calls you don't pick up roll over to us, with one setting on your phone line.
The caller gets a text in seconds, or the AI receptionist picks up, answers questions and books from your real openings.
A short summary hits your phone: who, what, where, when. Every call is recorded and written out so nothing gets lost.
Built for trades, not call centers
You pick the trigger words. When a caller says one, the call goes straight to your cell or you get an alert text.
Winter no-heat calls go to the top of the list.
Frozen-pipe nights don't wait for voicemail.
Book estimates while you're up on a job.
Holiday gift-card and booking questions answered 24/7.
Prices on the page. No sales call needed to find them.

Questions owners ask
Yes. It tells them up front, then gets to the point. Most callers just want a time slot, and they get one faster than voicemail.
No. You keep your number and forward only the calls you don't answer. Turn it off anytime.
It only books from openings you approve and only quotes prices you give it. Anything it isn't sure about gets flagged to you for a callback. Every call is recorded and written out.
The AI starts answering your missed calls within 48 hours. Texting (text-back, job alerts to your phone, review requests) switches on once the phone carriers approve your business number, usually 2 to 3 weeks. That approval is required for every business that sends automated texts. Until then, job details come to you by email.
No. Month to month. Cancel with a text.
