AI receptionist for contractors
Contractors miss calls on the roof, under a sink or behind the wheel. An AI receptionist can capture the job details, book an estimate and text you a summary before the lead calls the next company.
What to look for
Lead capture first
Name, address, job type and photos by text matter more than fancy features. Every receptionist here sends call summaries.
