Use cases
What Sara captures, by trade.
Different verticals, same shape: a structured handoff your team can act on the moment the call ends.
How it works
You hand it over. We build the rest.
Most AI receptionists hand you a dashboard to set up yourself. We do the whole build, you hand over what you already have, and you are taking real calls in about three weeks.
01
Plug Sara into your existing stack.
You do not change how the phone rings. We integrate with your existing number, calendar, and CRM. No IT, no porting, no new tool to learn.
Existing number, forwarded.
Conditional forwarding by default. Calls land on Sara only when no one picks up. Reversible from your handset.
Kickoff call within 48 hours.
One hour, recorded. We schedule it the moment you sign up.
02
Train Sara on your shop.
Sara learns your pricing, service area, FAQs, and the way your crew answers the phone. The kickoff call is recorded; Sara captures every question and answer in real time. Every objection your shop hears, she now hears too.
Tone matched to your crew.
Sara picks up your phrasing from the recording. Sounds like the shop, not a SaaS bot.
Edits go live the same day.
Find a question Sara handled wrong? We update the answer in minutes, no redeploy.
03
Sara goes live.
Week three starts in overflow mode. Sara answers only the calls you would otherwise miss. After you have heard her work, you expand: hybrid, full primary, after-hours only. You watch the jobs come in from one dashboard.
Booked jobs in real time.
Every appointment lands in your calendar the moment Sara confirms it.
Owner alert on urgent calls.
Water leaks, no heat in winter, anything you flagged at kickoff. Sara texts you, then transfers.
By the numbers
Speed wins the job. Period.
Two stats from independent research (peer-reviewed and industry) that explain why the phone is the most expensive part of a contractor's day.
The first-answer race.
You don't win the job because you're cheapest. You win because you picked up. 78% of emergency service jobs go to whoever answers first, not whoever quotes lowest.

Speed compounds.

“I run Voice AI on my own line. The first call I missed was the one that pushed me to build this.”
How we think about this
Safe for your callers, always under your control.
I built this so you never lose control of a call. It stays grounded in what you tell it, so it won't make up a price or a promise. It always offers your caller a human, nobody gets trapped with a bot. And we take only what we need, your customers' data never trains a model. We run it on our own line first.
