Built for the trades

Your phone, answered.Built for pest control.

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.

$39

a month to start, 200 minutes, about 55 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

  • A termite swarm and an ant trail are not the same urgency. It sorts them before it looks at your schedule.
  • It asks whether anyone in the home is pregnant, whether there are children, and whether there are pets, because that changes what you are willing to treat with.
  • Bed bug calls get their own questions. Room count and whether they have already used a store product decides how long the visit runs.
  • A wasp nest by a door with somebody in the house allergic to stings is not a Thursday appointment. It flags it and rings you.
  • It will not quote a termite treatment over the phone. Linear footage and foundation type decide that number.
  • It knows a real-estate inspection letter has a closing date attached, and it asks for the date.
  • Quarterly plan calls and one-time treatment calls go on different tracks, and it keeps them apart.

02

The work

The jobs it books without asking you.

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.

  • General pest control
  • Termite treatment
  • Termite inspection
  • Rodent control
  • Emergency infestation
  • Ant treatment
  • Roach treatment
  • Bed bug treatment

Anything it has not been told about, it says it does not know and sends you the question by text. It does not guess.

03

The call it has to get right

What happens when someone says the wrong thing.

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 texts you the summary.

This is an example of how the system is configured to respond. Exact behavior reflects your setup.

04

The question set

What it asks before anyone drives anywhere.

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.

  1. What are you seeing: insects, droppings, damage, or bites?
  2. Where in the home are you seeing it?
  3. How long has it been going on?
  4. Have you already treated it with anything yourself?
  5. Is anyone in the home pregnant, and are there children or pets?
  6. Is this for a home sale or a closing?

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

When it earns its keep

The first warm week and termite swarm season. That is when the phone triples and every missed call is a job that went to the next shop on the list. This does not go up in your busy months. The bill in your busiest week is the bill in January.

The next call is the one you are about to miss.

Set it up in about twenty minutes, once. We read your website, you correct what we got wrong, and you forward your number when you are happy with it. Not before.
