How It Works

Three steps. Start with missed calls; expand only if it earns trust.

STEP 1
Forward missed or after-hours calls

Keep your existing business number. Route only the calls you do not answer, or cover nights and weekends first.

STEP 2
Answring asks the job questions

It captures the caller's name, callback number, service address, job type, urgency, and the details your tech needs before calling back.

STEP 3
You get the summary

Review the transcript and call summary, then call back the jobs worth taking. On Business, urgent calls can transfer live.
