Mobile mechanic: an AI receptionist on your business phone
The short version
- It answers the calls you do not pick up, says it is an AI assistant, and asks what the job is.
- It names prices from your price list and no others. The list is built from the jobs below: you choose the ones you do and set the prices.
- $0.25 a minute of answered call and $5 a month per number.
What happens when somebody calls?
The assistant answers with your greeting, says it is an AI assistant, and asks what the job is. If the job has a price on your list, it says that price. It offers two times from your calendar and books the one the caller picks.
A job that is not on your list gets no price: the assistant offers a visit to look at it and give a price on site.
The job reaches you by email when the call ends: one call, one email. A call that ends without a booking still reaches you as a lead.
It speaks English, Spanish and Russian and switches between them inside a single call. You choose which of the three it switches into and which one it greets in.
