How it works

1

Forward your missed calls

Keep your number. Unanswered or after-hours calls divert to your AI receptionist. We set it up with you.

2

It triages like a pro

Burst pipe, gas smell, no hot water, blocked drain, aircon down. It gives safety steps first (000 or the gas emergency line where needed), then captures the name, suburb, address, phone and the problem.

3

You get an email in seconds

A tidy email summary with the urgency flag. Real emergencies after hours can be transferred to your on-call tech (we set this up with you).

4

No made-up promises

It never quotes job prices or invents arrival times. It logs a booking request and your team confirms it.

FAQ

Will customers know it's an AI?

Yes, it says so up front. In the Upfirst 2026 survey, 80% of consumers said they want to be told when they're talking to AI.

Does it replace my office staff?

No. It picks up the calls they can't: when the line's busy, on smoko, or after hours.

What happens with a gas leak or emergency?

It gives basic safety steps, tells the caller to ring 000 or the gas distributor's emergency line, and flags it to you immediately. It never gives DIY repair advice.

Will it quote prices or book jobs on its own?

It will only read out the call-out fee you give it. It never quotes job prices, and it logs booking requests for your team to confirm unless you connect a live calendar.

Do I need a new phone number?

No. Set your existing number to divert unanswered or after-hours calls. We'll walk you through it for your carrier.

Is there a contract?

No lock-in. Month-to-month, cancel anytime. Start with the 14-day pilot if you want to see it working first.

Do you work in New Zealand?

Yes. Email us for NZ$ pricing.
