Managed AI call coverage for local service businesses

Keep Estimate Requests Moving While You’re on the Job

For roofing, carpentry, landscaping, and other local trades, the next inquiry often arrives while your team is already working.

Your staff answer first. When they’re unavailable, our AI receptionist can collect the project details and book an estimate or service appointment using your scheduling rules.

  1. 1 Your team answers first.
  2. 2 AI answers when your team can’t.
  3. 3 Your team follows up when needed.

If a question needs your staff’s attention, the AI records the caller’s details and question for your team to call back.

Different Services Need Different Questions

We configure the conversation around your services and the information your team needs. Example questions could include:

  • Roofing — “Are you looking for a repair estimate or a replacement estimate?”
  • Carpentry — “Are you looking for a repair estimate, a remodel quote, or custom carpentry work?”
  • Landscaping — “What changes are you considering for the property?”

During setup, we agree on the questions to ask, the details to collect, and which appointments the AI can book.

From Project Inquiry to Estimate Appointment

Your team receives the appointment and the project details gathered during the call.

Fit the Way You Schedule Work

Some calls can go straight into an available appointment. Others need your team to review the request first.

We configure which services the AI can book, the information it should collect, and when it should record a question for staff follow-up.

FAQ

Common questions

Can it ask questions specific to our business?

Yes. We configure the information collected around your services, service area, and booking requirements.

Who answers our calls?

Your existing staff answer first. When they’re unavailable—or during the after-hours coverage you choose—our AI receptionist answers on your business’s behalf.

Can the AI book appointments?

Yes. The AI can check availability and book appointments through your connected scheduling system, following your booking rules. We confirm compatibility and configure the connection during setup.

Which scheduling systems do you support?

We support booking through Calendly, Cal.com, and GoHighLevel calendars. Google Calendar and Outlook can connect through a supported scheduling platform. Available booking actions depend on your setup, and Calendly requires a paid plan for booking.

We confirm compatibility and any additional integration work before getting started.

Can we keep our existing phone number?

Yes. Customers can continue calling your current business number. We can usually arrange coverage through call forwarding, so your number stays with your existing provider. We review your phone setup and configure when calls reach the AI.

What happens when a caller needs human help?

If the AI cannot resolve a question, it records the caller’s contact details and question for your staff to follow up.

We agree on how your team receives these requests and what callback expectations callers should be given.

What do you need to get started?

We’ll need your business hours, services, approved answers to common questions, booking rules, and callback instructions. For appointment booking, we’ll also need access to a supported scheduling system.

We handle configuration and testing. Your launch date depends on your phone setup and any additional integrations, and we confirm the timeline before going live.

What if our scheduling software is not listed?

We’ll review compatibility and any additional integration work before agreeing on the setup.
