AI booking agent for general contractor

General Contractor booking
agent. Meet Maria.

Not an answering service. Maria answers your general contractor line while you’re walking a job site — subs not showing up or falling behind schedule, permit and inspection delays holding up the job, or the build that’s that's a six-figure job — in your company’s name, 24/7, and books it.

General Contractor answering — the index

Does Maria understand general contractor calls?

She knows RFI, punch list, change order, a Track saw and table saw, and what DeWalt means — the right questions for a whole-house renovation, not a caller re-explaining their own job.

An after-hours build?

Subs not showing up or falling behind schedule can’t wait. She answers 24/7 as your company, books or messages it, and warm-transfers a real emergency to your cell.

How do I hear about the calls?

Email — summary and full transcript — the second it ends. Calendar booking is included, she texts your customers their appointment confirmations and reminders automatically, and the ones who didn’t book, she calls back herself.

Never miss another general contractor call.

Add extra lines to track your marketing: $10/mo per number

Put a different local number on each ad, flyer, or truck and you’ll know exactly which one is ringing. We break out the calls, bookings and upsells per number, and keep detailed call records (a summary and the full transcript of every call) for each line you have, the same detail as your main line. Each extra number is just $10/month.

Maria on your website: included

Why not turn your website into a lead-generating sales machine? Drop Maria onto your own site and every visitor can talk to her right there. She greets them, answers questions, and books the job while they’re still on the page. No more forms nobody fills out. She does everything on your site that she does on the phone: same Maria, same abilities. It is included, at no extra charge.

Short calls cost you almost nothing

You pay for talk time, not for calls. We add up the actual seconds Maria is on the phone across the month. Nothing rounds up to a full minute, and nothing bills as a whole “call.” A wrong number, a pocket dial, a thirty-second “are you open Saturday?” costs you pennies.

The spam and sales calls Maria screens are free. Screened calls never touch your minutes: not your allowance, not your overage, ever. Services that meter you per call, or per “interaction,” charge full freight for that same thirty seconds.

The fine print: no surprises

Keep your existing number. Go over your minutes and Maria never stops answering. It’s $0.49 a minute, and we text you first. No surprises, ever.

Texting works the day you start. Pick her voice and name your receptionist. Satisfaction guaranteed.

In good company

Plays nicely with the tools you already run.

Maria books into your calendar and pushes every call into your CRM. No rip-and-replace.
