Trades · Voice Answering & Missed Call SMSLive

Someone always picks up.

We're the receptionist on your number. You choose when we answer, what callers hear in your business's name, and where the details go. If you'd rather answer your own calls, we catch the ones you miss instead.

I built this after years of calling around for my own house and going with whoever got back to me first. One saved job pays for it for months.

Here's a real call to our trades demo line, and the text that landed on the owner's phone seconds later. Or call 831-276-0035 and try it yourself. It answers as Demo Plumbing and Heating.

1. The caller hears

“Thanks for calling, this is Front desk Demo Plumbing and Heating. This call is recorded. May I have your name and reason for calling?”

2. The caller leaves a message

“Hi. This is Mike, and my water heater is broken in the garage. There’s water all over the floor. Please call me back at this number. Thanks.”

3. The owner gets this text

A real call to our trades demo line, recorded November 2026. Demo Plumbing and Heating is a sample name, not a real company. The caller is our founder playing a customer. The text is shown exactly as it arrived, with the caller's number hidden.

Built for the trades.

Your phone is never unanswered.

We pick up in your business’s name on every call you don’t take, day or night. If a call drops before they finish, they still get a text so the lead isn’t lost.

They wait for you, not the next guy.

Someone answers, takes their details, and tells them you’ll call back. That’s all it takes for them to hold on instead of dialing down the list.

You call back knowing everything.

Their name, their number, and what they said land straight in your pocket. You can read it or hear it in their own voice before you dial.

For plumbers, electricians, HVAC, general contractors, and other project-based trades.

How it works.

1

Your phone rings first

You decide how long. Answer right away, or let it ring a couple times so you get first shot at it. Nothing about your number changes and your customers dial the same line they always have.

2

If you don’t grab it, we answer

We pick up in your business’s name, let them know we’re taking a message, and ask who’s calling and what they need. Every hour of the day, including nights and weekends.

3

The message lands in your pocket

You get their number, what they said written out, and a link to hear it in their own voice. By text or email, whichever you pick. If the call drops before they finish, we text them so the lead isn’t lost.

Rather answer your own calls? Missed Call Text-Back does the same job without us picking up. When a call goes unanswered, the caller gets an immediate text asking what they need, and their details come straight to you.

Best part? There's nothing to do but sign up. No software, no downloads, nothing touching how you already run things. Sign up, dial three codes on your phone, and you're set. That simple.

Why I built this.

I built this from my own experience. Any time I needed work done on my house, I'd call around until someone finally answered, and I'd go with whoever got back to me first. If just one of those businesses had picked up, or even texted me back, I never would have called the next one. The whole thing would have started with them.

It's the same reason people wait at a restaurant once they're on the list, or sit in a waiting room without leaving. When someone feels seen and knows they're next, they wait. That's all this does for your callers, whether we answer the phone for you or catch the ones you miss.

One saved job pays for it for months.

Pick the service that fits how you work, tell us a little about your business, and we'll get your line ready. No software, no downloads.

Pick your service

This is the name callers will hear when we answer.

Up to two lines. Cell or landline both work. You keep your number and it does not change.

When should we pick up?

You choose how long your phone rings before we answer.

Verizon and a few other carriers set the ring time themselves and do not let you change it. If yours is one of them, we'll tell you in your setup instructions.

We answer every call you do not pick up, day or night. If a call drops or someone hangs up without leaving a message, they still get a text so the lead is not lost.

Callers hear a short notice that the call is recorded before they leave a message. We keep recordings for 30 days, then delete them automatically. Full detail is on our voice consent page.

A mobile number for text alerts, or an email address if you would rather not receive texts. Text alerts require your consent below. Email alerts do not.

We send you the exact codes to dial for your carrier once you are set up.

When do you take calls?

We answer around the clock. Outside these hours, callers hear that you will get back to them first thing.

Days you take calls. Tap any day to turn it off.

This is where your receipt and setup instructions go.

Text message alerts (optional)

Most owners want leads by text. You're on a job site, not at a desk.

You'll enter payment on the next step. Cancel anytime. Try it for 30 days. If it doesn't pay for itself, we refund your first month. Agreeing to text alerts is optional and is never a condition of purchase.

Go over your call limit and extra calls are 35¢ each, billed with your next month. No surprise rate hikes, no per-minute charges.

Someone always picks up.
