Layer 04 — Intelligence

AI staff for the front office. Every call answered.

Not a chatbot bolted to your website. AI staff that can see your schedule and book the job.

The problem

The phone rings at 6:40 on a Tuesday night and nobody answers. That caller dials the next contractor on the list. It happens during lunch, during every busy Monday, and all weekend. Most businesses hire an answering service that takes a message nobody reads until morning. By then, the job is gone.

What we do

AI receptionist

Answers after hours and on overflow in a natural voice, gets the caller’s name, address and problem, and writes a summary straight into your CRM.

AI booking

Checks real technician availability, service area and job type, then books a slot and sends the confirmation. It follows your rules — who gets booked first, what jobs need a callback.

After-hours dispatch

You decide what counts as an emergency. No heat in January wakes up the on-call tech. A noisy fan in May gets booked for Thursday.

Web and text assistant

The same AI answers website chat and text messages, with the same rules and the same access to your schedule.

What you get

  • An AI receptionist trained on your services, prices policy and service area
  • Booking rules written with you and tested against real call recordings
  • Emergency routing to your on-call phone with a text summary
  • Every call recorded, transcribed and attached to the customer record
  • A weekly report: calls answered, booked, escalated, and missed

Questions owners ask

Will customers know they’re talking to AI?

We recommend it says so up front. Callers care that someone answered and got them booked, and honesty prevents the rare bad experience. You choose the name and greeting.

What if the AI doesn’t know the answer?

It takes a message, tells the caller exactly when they’ll get a callback, and texts your team the summary. It doesn’t guess at prices or diagnoses.

Can it book directly into my field-service software?

Yes, when the systems are connected. That’s why we build Connection before Intelligence — an AI that can’t see your schedule can only take messages.

Does it replace my office staff?

No. It covers the hours and overflow they can’t. Most owners find their office gets calmer, not smaller.

What does it cost to run each month?

It’s included in your plan: Starter $497/mo with 500 AI minutes, Growth $897/mo with 1,000 and Housecall Pro booking, Pro $1,497/mo with 2,500. Extra minutes are $0.20 each and texts $0.03. No long contract.
