After-Hours Call Answering Built for Concrete Contractors

{"faqs":[{"answer":"The AI uses only your approved FAQ scripts — you provide the answers for mix designs, reinforcement, sealers, and timelines during setup. If a caller asks something outside your scripts, the AI captures the question and routes it to you via text or schedules a callback. No guesswork, no hallucinated specs.","question":"How does the AI handle technical concrete questions like PSI ratings or cure times?"},{"answer":"Yes. During setup you define qualification rules — minimum project value, service radius, job types you accept. The AI asks your qualifying questions (square footage, timeline, budget range) and scores each lead. High-value foundation leads can trigger immediate routing to your cell; smaller repairs book standard estimates.","question":"Can it distinguish between a $2,000 patio repair and a $50,000 foundation job?"},{"answer":"The AI answers immediately, captures the urgency and details, and follows your emergency protocol — which can include instant text to your on-call number, booking an emergency assessment slot, or both. Caller knows they're talking to AI but gets a clear next step within seconds, not voicemail.","question":"What happens when a homeowner calls about an emergency foundation crack at 2 AM?"},{"answer":"Typically 3-5 business days after the scoping call. We connect your Jobber calendar via integration, load your approved FAQs and qualification rules, and test the flow with you. No contract — if it's not working in week one, you cancel with no penalty.","question":"How fast can we go live if we already use Jobber for scheduling?"},{"answer":"Traditional services take messages — we qualify and book. A night dispatcher costs $3,500+/month plus benefits; our managed plan runs ~$149/mo + 14¢/min with zero overhead. We screen spam (never billed), integrate with your CRM, nurture leads automatically, and give you source-to-booking tracking so you can double down on marketing that works.","question":"How is this different from a traditional answering service or hiring a night dispatcher?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Connect Your Phone Line","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Forward your existing business number or get a new one.
