Overview

Live AI call answering for HVAC companies, from first ring to booked appointment.

This AI agent picks up your business line and holds a real conversation with the caller, the same way a trained CSR would. It asks a few qualifying questions about the system and the issue, checks technician availability, and books the visit directly on the calendar before the call ends. Every call is transcribed and logged, so the office has full context even for jobs the agent booked on its own.

Example

Example workflow

A realistic use case with concrete timing and output.

Scenario: A homeowner calls at 6:45 PM saying their AC "just stopped working." The agent asks two follow-up questions, determines it's likely a capacitor issue rather than an emergency, offers the next available slot at 9 AM the following day, confirms the address, and books it — all inside a 90-second call, with zero involvement from the office.

FAQ

FAQ

Common questions about using the AI agent in workflows.

Yes. The agent picks up the line, holds a natural conversation, asks qualifying questions about the job, and books the visit — the caller doesn't need to know they're talking to an AI unless you want them to.

Yes, as long as it's connected to a live calendar. The agent checks real technician availability and confirms the booking during the same call, without anyone in the office touching it.

You can configure urgency rules so genuine emergencies get flagged for immediate human or on-call-tech follow-up, rather than being routed into the standard next-available slot.

It runs on natural, conversational voice models and can be tuned to your business's tone. Most callers respond to it the same way they would a live CSR.

Yes. If a caller asks for a person, or the conversation goes somewhere the agent isn't confident handling, it can transfer the call or take a message for a callback.
