What if I already have an answering service?
Most contractors who come to us already have one. The difference is what happens after the call is answered — a live answering service still has to relay a message back to you, and you still have to call the lead back. The AI system engages, qualifies, and books the appointment directly, without another handoff. Many clients run both side by side during the transition.
How long does setup actually take?
Most deployments are live within 5–10 business days from your systems briefing, depending on how much CRM integration is needed. If you're not currently using a CRM, we can set up a simple one as part of the build.
Can I cancel the monthly service?
Yes. The $2,500 setup fee is one-time and non-refundable once the build starts, since it covers real integration work. The monthly infrastructure fee is billed month-to-month with no long-term contract — see our Terms of Service for full details.
Does this replace my office staff or dispatcher?
No — it catches what falls through the cracks. Most contractors don't have full-time phone coverage in the first place, especially outside business hours and on weekends. The system handles the calls nobody was going to answer anyway, and hands off cleanly to your team for anything that needs a human.
Will this work with my existing CRM?
In most cases, yes. We integrate with common CRMs used in the trades, and if yours isn't a standard fit, we'll tell you plainly during the systems briefing rather than after you've signed up.
Do homeowners know they're texting with an AI?
Yes. The system identifies itself and follows applicable consent and disclosure requirements for automated texting. We don't build systems designed to impersonate a human — it's unnecessary, and it's a legal risk we're not interested in taking on your behalf.
What happens to the leads if I want to stop the service?
All lead and call data collected during your subscription remains exportable to you — it's your pipeline, not ours. See our Privacy Policy for details on data handling and retention.
Is my territory really exclusive?
Yes — we work with one contractor per trade, per service area. We'll confirm availability for your specific area on the systems briefing call before anything moves forward.
