How it works

From ring to booked in 90 seconds.

No app for callers to install. No menu to navigate. Just a real conversation that ends with a confirmed job on your calendar.

1

Caller dials your number

Use your existing business line (we forward it) or the Twilio number we provision in onboarding. Pick up speed: under 1 second.

2

AI answers and qualifies

It greets the caller in your voice, asks the right questions for your trade, and handles urgent / non-urgent triage. Spanish callers auto-detected.

3

Books the job

Slots are pulled from your availability. The AI confirms the address, callback number, and time window before booking.

4

Texts you the details

Within 30 seconds you get an SMS with the caller's name, address, issue, and time slot. Full transcript appears in your dashboard.

Sample call · plumbing emergency
C
Hi, my water heater just burst, water everywhere.
AI
Got it — sorry to hear that. First, do you know where the main shutoff is? I can walk you through it while I dispatch a tech.
C
Garage, I think.
AI
Perfect. Look for a yellow handle on the incoming pipe — turn it 90 degrees. Address and best callback number?
C
412 Oak Street, 78704. 512-555-0144.
AI
Tech will be there within the hour. You'll get a confirmation text in about 30 seconds. Anything else I can help with?

That entire conversation was handled by AI. The owner got a text with the address before hanging up.
