Your phone rings.
Somebody answers. Every time.
The after-hours calls, the calls that ring out while you’re on a job, the web forms that sit until somebody’s back at a desk — answered in seconds, booked into your calendar, and escalated to you the moment it’s real.
Built for HVAC, plumbing, roofing, and electrical shops in Katy / Houston.
Or hear it answer for yourself — call (281) 661-8159 and the AI receptionist picks up live, any hour.
Please don’t share patient names or health details on that line — if that’s what you’re reaching out about, we’ll set up a protected channel first.
Where your jobs go today.
The evening caller hears a greeting, hangs up, and dials the next shop on the list.
You’re on a roof or under a house, the ring times out, and the lead books with whoever picks up.
The inquiry sits in an inbox until somebody gets to a desk — long after the homeowner has chosen someone else.
We don’t quote industry averages at you. In the Diagnostic, we count your misses — and you do the math with your ticket size.
What Front Desk Reclaim does.
Every call answered in under 60 seconds — or escalated to you — 24/7. AI voice and text, built on your prices, your service area, your calendar.
Missed-call text-back that converses. It qualifies the job, quotes your service-call fee, and books the slot — not a canned “sorry we missed you.”
Web form answered inside a minute. The inquiry gets a real reply while the homeowner is still on your website.
After-hours and weekend routing on your rules. Who gets woken up, for what, and when — you decide once, it holds every night.
A daily owner digest. Every call, every lead, every booking — in one note, every day.
The part nobody else puts in writing.
“I smell gas” is not a sales call.
When we build your Front Desk Reclaim, these emergency keywords are hard-coded into your agent to ring a human immediately — you or your on-call. Its only job on those calls is to connect a human fast and say: “if anyone’s in danger, hang up and call 911.”
It doesn’t troubleshoot, doesn’t quote, doesn’t chat. This ships as part of every build we deliver — it isn’t a feature of the demo number above, which only shows the conversational experience.
If the system ever goes down.
Carrier-level forwarding sends calls straight to your cell. No app, no server, no AI in the path.
The failover is dumb on purpose — it can’t crash.
The Diagnostic — paid, and credited in full against your build.
You already know you miss calls. The Diagnostic buys you your own numbers — the inside data you never look at — and a written fix you keep either way.
Two-week call & lead audit
Your own carrier call history, Google Business Profile call log, voicemail box, and form inbox — every miss counted, categorized, and timestamped.
Review & web-presence scan
Your rating, review count, and response gaps, measured against three named local competitors.
ROI worksheet — every number is yours
Your misses × your ticket × your close rate, filled in live at the table. Printed on the sheet: “No industry averages on this page — every number above is yours.”
A written Fix-Spec you keep either way
Routing rules, missed-call text-back setup, a voicemail greeting with an emergency path — yours whether you hire us or not.
The Diagnostic starts at $500 for solo operations — paid once and credited in full against your build.
No guessing with your money.
“I don’t offer revenue guarantees — anybody who guarantees revenue is guessing with your money.”
What you get instead
- Your own audit numbers, before you spend a dollar on the build.
- A demo that calls your own cell — you hear it work before you buy it.
- Month-to-month. You can end it anytime.
- A log of every captured call, so you count the recovered jobs yourself.
- It can’t invent prices or make promises — those powers are locked in code, not left to an AI’s mood.
- Every change is battle-tested before it ever talks to your customers. See the Doctrine.
Builds run from $7K–$9K one-time, scope-dependent — minus your Diagnostic credit.
How it lands.

On duty — with two weeks of tuning included.
I’m one guy and I do one build at a time — that’s capacity, not a countdown timer.
Count your misses. Then decide.
Book the Diagnostic, get your own numbers, and keep the Fix-Spec either way. Or watch it work first — the demo runs live in your browser.
