Built for the trades
An AI receptionist that knows pest control: what to ask before the truck moves, what not to quote over the phone, and what is an emergency versus a service call.
First warm week in April the phone starts and does not stop. Ants across a kitchen counter is not something a homeowner leaves a message about.
Termites are worse. Somebody who just watched swarmers come out of a door frame wants an inspector today, and their closing is in eleven days.
Whoever picks up gets the inspection, and the inspection is the job.
The wasp-nest call ends with a treatment slot on a morning you had open, not a callback you make from the truck.
$99
a month to start, 350 minutes, about 100 calls
A live answering service runs $180 to $600 a month and takes a message. This books the job. All three plans
Takes about a minute. We read your site and build an agent from what we find. No email. No card.
01 / What it knows about pest control
02
The work
These come pre-selected when you set it up, because they are what pest control shops actually run. You uncheck what you do not do and add what is missing, once.
Anything it has not been told about, it says it does not know and writes the question on the call for you. It does not guess.
03
The call it has to get right
Most calls book a job. One kind of call requires something else. Here is what it does when that call comes in.
Example trigger
Caller says someone was stung and is having trouble breathing
What it does (example)
It stops the booking flow. It tells the caller to call 9-1-1 right now and to use an epinephrine auto-injector if there is one in the house. It does not schedule a treatment ahead of that call. It writes down what was said, marked an emergency in your call list.
This is an example of how the system is configured to respond. Exact behavior reflects your setup.
04
The question set
These are the intake questions built for pest control. The same questions you would ask. They get asked on every call, in order, before anything is scheduled or priced.
What it will not quote
Termite treatment
Termite price is driven by linear footage, foundation type, and how far the colony has already gone. There is no honest number before an inspection, so it books the inspection instead.
It offers a free estimate visit. It does not attempt to price the job over the phone.
05
What it costs
In swarm season a two-tech shop loses the inspections that ring while both techs are under a house. Our One Truck plan is $99 a month and it takes every one of them.
