For Electrical Contractors
You're On a Jobsite. Your Phone's in the Truck. Someone Needs an Electrician.
It's 11:26 in the morning.
You're in the middle of a job. Your crew needs a decision. The homeowner has a question. You're trying to keep the project moving.
Meanwhile, someone across town is calling because they need electrical work.
You can't answer every call while you're working. And you don't want to spend the evening chasing messages.


The call you didn't hear.
A homeowner has an outlet that stopped working. They want someone to come take a look.
They call. It rings out.
Some callers leave a message. Many don't. Either way, you find out hours later — if you find out at all.
Answered, even when you can't pick up.
An AI Receptionist gathers the service location, the nature of the request, and the caller's contact details.
It also asks about warning signs — because an outlet that stopped working is routine, but smoke or sparks are not.
Ordinary requests go to your scheduling process. Anything that sounds like an immediate hazard is handled differently, using rules you approve.
A better first conversation. A clearer next step.
AI Concierge: A conversational AI assistant configured around your business, your customers, and your approved processes.
A stopped outlet, with the safety questions asked first.
- CustomerAn outlet in my kitchen stopped working. The other outlets seem fine. Can someone check it?
- AI ConciergeI can help gather the request. I'm the contractor's AI Concierge. Before we discuss a visit, have you noticed smoke, sparks, a burning smell, heat, buzzing, or a shock?
- CustomerNo, none of those. The coffee maker just wouldn't turn on there this morning.
- AI ConciergeThanks. No warning signs are reported, but that doesn't confirm the outlet is safe or tell us the cause. Please leave it unused until a qualified electrician checks it. What city is the property in, and have you noticed other outlets affected or recent electrical work?
- CustomerSummerlin. Only this outlet, as far as I know. No recent work. I own the house and can be home Friday afternoon.
- AI ConciergeI'll include that it's one reported kitchen outlet, no recent work, and Friday afternoon is your preference. The team can review service coverage and visit options; I can't promise dispatch. What name should they use?
- CustomerCasey.
- AI ConciergeThanks, Casey. What's the best mobile number for someone from the office to text you about the outlet request?
- Customer(702) 555-0189.
- AI ConciergeIs it okay for the office to text you at that number about this request?
- CustomerYes, please.
- AI ConciergePerfect. I'll pass the request and your SMS permission to the office for review. A real person can follow up by text; you can close the website. I can't confirm response time or visit availability. If smoke, sparks or fire appear, move away and contact emergency services rather than wait for an appointment. Don't open the outlet or attempt a repair.
