How it works

From first ring to 5-star review

Here is the exact path every call takes. Scroll through it step by step — the phone shows what the customer sees at each stage.

The whole job, start to finish

Nine steps. Two taps from you.

Everything below runs itself once a call comes in. You only speak the price and tap when the job is done.

Homeowner

  • Taps the link from the text — no app, no account, no password
  • Drops in photos or video of the problem
  • Reads the itemised quote, signs with a fingertip, picks a 2-hour window
  • Pays from the same chat, then leaves the review

Susan

  • Answers in two rings, nights and weekends included
  • Asks for name, the fault and whether it's an emergency
  • Opens a private job chat and sends the link the second the call ends
  • Turns your spoken price into a quote and does every total on the server
  • Chases the signature, the booking, the invoice and the review

You

  • Say the price out loud: “quote Sarah $200 labour and $85 for a new disposal”
  • Tap Mark job complete when the work is done
  • Nothing else — the invoice, payment link and review request follow themselves
Step 01 / 09

Call answered 24/7

Susan answers every call in two rings — nights, weekends, holidays, even while you're under a sink.

  • Greets callers as your business and takes the name and the exact problem
  • Asks smart follow-ups: water on? sparks? gas smell? — nothing important is missed
  • Flags true emergencies instantly so you decide who to help first

Link texted instantly

The caller gets a text seconds after hanging up with their own private job chat.

  • One tap opens the chat — no app to download, no account, no password
  • Everything about the job lives in one thread: messages, photos, quotes, payment
  • Every job gets a number, so “job 402” is always findable later

Quote by voice

Just talk: “Quote $200 labor and $85 for a new disposal.” Susan turns it into a clean quote.

  • Speak or type the price — line items, quantities and totals build themselves
  • All the math is computed exactly on the server, never guessed by AI
  • The itemized quote card lands in the customer's chat in seconds

Signed on the phone

The customer signs with a fingertip, right inside the chat. Legally binding.

  • Clear consent checkbox explains exactly what they're agreeing to
  • No paper, no PDFs, no “I'll sign it tonight and text you”

Books a 2-hour window

Open 2-hour slots appear in the thread right after signing. One tap books it.

  • Real availability from your working hours — not a calendar you babysit
  • Two-hour windows your customers can actually plan their day around
  • Double-booking is impossible: every slot is checked against your live schedule
