AI phone receptionist for small businesses

The AI phone receptionist for plumbers and electricians

With your hands inside a boiler you cannot pick up, and a caller with a leak rings the second number on the list. The assistant answers and sorts out how urgent it is.

The AI phone receptionist for plumbers and electricians

A tradesman works in other people's homes, with the drill running and the phone left in the van. The calls arrive in a block, early in the morning and at seven in the evening. Rispondly's assistant answers in Italian, asks what has broken and where, books the visit in the right slot and sends everything to your WhatsApp.

What happens today

  • The drill drowns out the ringtone and you see the missed call two hours later.
  • Someone with a water leak leaves no message: they ring the next number.
  • You call back at the end of the day and half of them have already found someone else.
  • Real emergencies get lost among the requests for a quote.

What the assistant says on the phone

Natural voice, handles interruptions, one question at a time. It always says it is a virtual assistant, as the law requires. If the request is complicated, it transfers the call to you or takes a message.

What changes with Rispondly

Emergency or quote

Leaks, a tripped fuse box, a boiler that stopped: two questions and the assistant knows whether you leave now or an appointment is enough.

Fault and address in writing

Name, street, floor, what has broken: it all lands on WhatsApp, so you know what to load in the van before you move.

Evenings and weekends

At night and on Sundays the assistant keeps answering and only flags what cannot wait until Monday.

Call backs that happen

Callers are told when you will ring them. You find the list already in order, without listening to ten voicemails.

Frequently asked questions

How does it know a call is urgent?
By the rules you give us: which faults count as urgent, in which hours and for which area. Outside those rules it takes the details and books an ordinary appointment.
Can it quote a price for the job?
It gives the call-out fee, if you leave us the figure. The rest depends on the fault, and the assistant says so: the quote is yours to make on site.
Will it put a call through while I am driving?
Only if you want it to. You can send every call to the assistant, or only the ones you do not answer after twenty seconds, using your carrier code.
