How it works

1

Customer calls your number

Your dedicated business line answers every call — even when you're on the job, driving, or after hours.

2

Every lead is captured

The receptionist asks the right questions — name, callback number, what the job is, how urgent — and gets it all down.

3

It books the job — or sends the lead

For jobs you want on the calendar, it offers a time and books the appointment on the call. Either way, you get a clean summary by text and email the moment it ends.

Built for the way contractors work

Answers as your company

Callers hear your company name. It sounds like your business answered — not a generic service.

Books the job, not just a message

When a caller wants to schedule, it checks your availability, offers a time, and books the appointment right there on the call.

Every lead, fully structured

Name, number, service type, urgency, job description — saved automatically so nothing falls through the cracks.

Appointments on your calendar

Every booking lands on your calendar with a confirmation sent to the customer. See your week at a glance and assign jobs to your team.

Instant text + email alerts

The moment a call ends, you get a summary. Know exactly what the customer needs before you call back.

Dashboard to track everything

See every lead and call in one place. Mark jobs as booked, filter by urgency, and review transcripts.
