Your industry

Start where it matters most

The right AI opportunity looks different in every business. Calls are one strong use case, and the free audit helps you find the system that belongs first.

Roofers

Storm season means 80 calls a day, and most go to voicemail and straight to your competitor.

We answer every call, qualify the job, and book the estimate while your crew is on the roof.

See how it works for Roofers

HVAC

Emergency calls at 2am decide whether a customer stays loyal or finds someone else on Google.

We answer nights and weekends, triage the issue, and dispatch or schedule, without waking you up.

See how it works for HVAC

Plumbing

Plumbing leads don't wait. They call the next number on the list if they hit voicemail.

We answer in under 3 rings, qualify urgency, and get them booked before they hang up.

See how it works for Plumbing

Pest Control

Seasonal surges overwhelm your front desk, and leads fall through when the phone is too busy.

We handle call overflow automatically so every spike in volume becomes booked revenue, not lost calls.

See how it works for Pest Control

Med Spa

High-intent leads who call after hours convert at half the rate of same-day responses.

We follow up with every inquiry within 60 seconds, answer common questions, and book the consult.

See how it works for Med Spa

Dental

New patient calls that go to voicemail rarely call back. They book the practice that answered.

We capture new patient inquiries 24/7, qualify insurance and service type, and book the first appointment.

We build on proven infrastructure, not stitched-together experiments.

Proof before launch

We test before we promise

Every system goes through a gauntlet before it goes live in your business.

Step 1

50 Real Scenarios

We build a test set from the requests you actually get: booking requests, pricing questions, urgent issues, unhappy customers, and edge cases specific to your industry.

Step 2

Classification Audit

Every scenario is run through the agent and scored. We check: Did it answer correctly? Did it route right? Did it know when to escalate? We don't go live until accuracy hits threshold.

Step 3

Edge Case Review

We flag every scenario where the agent hesitated, gave a partial answer, or escalated unnecessarily. We fix those before your first real caller hears a word.

We share the eval report with you before launch. You see exactly what the agent can and can't handle. No surprises.

The control room

You always know what happened

Every action logged. Every decision visible. Every handoff documented.

Activity Logs

A visit, a form, a booking, a call: whatever the system touches is recorded with a timestamp and an outcome. Nothing disappears.

Approval Flows

Anything that requires a judgment call comes to you first, with context. You approve or redirect; the system handles the rest.

Handoff Records

When the system escalates to your team, it sends the full context: who it was, what they wanted, what was said, what was promised. No “who is this?” moments.
