Does a home services call have to wait until morning?
No, and most of them currently shouldn't have to. A burst pipe or a dead furnace doesn't happen on a schedule, but the phone answering it usually does — most inbound calls to HVAC, plumbing and electrical companies go unanswered outside business hours, right when the emergencies that pay the most tend to land. This covers answering that call the moment it arrives. It isn't dispatch, scheduling, invoicing, or any field-service-management integration — those stay with whatever tools you already run.
The burst pipe at 11 p.m.
The product's stated mission for a business you already have: "Find people asking for what you sell, and give them the best answer in the thread." For a home services company, that's the homeowner calling, texting, or filling out a form at the worst possible hour, asking a real question — can someone come tonight, what does this cost, who do I call — answered with something useful immediately instead of a voicemail greeting.
It never logs off, even when you do
One of the product's own features puts it plainly: "It never logs off." A contractor sleeps, takes a day off, finishes a job that runs long — the answering work doesn't stop with them. The caller at 2 a.m. gets the same real response as the caller at 2 p.m., which is usually the difference between booking the job and the caller moving to whoever picks up next.
See your own setup
The free team builder shows this without signing up for anything: pick your business type and a goal, and it names the actual agents that would run it for you — what each does this week, and the one number each owns. Three taps, no typing, no email required.
What it costs
- Starter, $50/month — standard usage, a steady pace.
- Turbo, $300/month — 6x the usage of Starter, for a faster result.
Only usage differs between the two plans. A refundable deposit — 20% of your first month ($10 on Starter, $60 on Turbo) — holds your waitlist spot, returned in full if you don't make it off. Real billing starts only after you're off the waitlist and your goal is confirmed.
If most of your calls come from people searching nearby rather than an emergency at odd hours, AI agents for local businesses covers the broader "near me" version of the same problem.
Questions
Does this dispatch a technician or schedule the job?
No. Dispatch, scheduling, invoicing, and field-service-management integration all stay with whatever tools you already use. This runs the first response to an inbound call or message — nothing past that.
Is this just an after-hours answering service?
It's closer to a team working your goal continuously, with answering inbound calls and messages as one part of it — not a single phone-answering line, and not limited to after hours.
How fast does a call actually get answered?
The product doesn't log off, so the goal is the same response speed day or night, weekday or holiday — not a faster voicemail, an actual answer when the call comes in.
What's the monthly cost?
$50/month on Starter or $300/month on Turbo, plus a one-time refundable deposit (20% of your first month) before you're off the waitlist.
