AI receptionist · Plumbing, HVAC, electrical, roofing, cleaning
An AI receptionist for home-service companies that books the job while you're under the sink.
When you're on a job, the phone rings, and you can't answer, that customer calls the next company on Google. Kinetiq's AI receptionist answers every call, books the job into Jobber, Housecall Pro, or ServiceTitan, quotes your service-call fee, and gets an emergency to your on-call tech. Any call that does slip through gets a text back within seconds.
What it does on a typical call
- "My water heater is leaking, can someone come today?" It checks your schedule, offers the next window, collects the address and gate code, quotes the service-call fee, and books it. Your tech gets the job on their phone.
- "How much to replace an AC unit?" It gives your range or explains that you quote on site, and books the estimate.
- "There's water coming through the ceiling." Emergency rules: it transfers to the on-call tech immediately; if no answer, it books the first emergency slot and alerts you by text.
- "Are you licensed and insured?" Yes, with your license number, plus how long you've been in business and your service area.
- "Do you service Norco?" It knows your zip codes and declines politely outside them.
- Missed-call text-back. If a call does ring out, the caller gets a text in seconds with a booking link. This one automation alone usually pays for the whole service.
Built for the trades
- Books into your dispatch software. Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, FieldPulse, Workiz, and Google Calendar for smaller crews. Real availability, not a separate calendar.
- Knows your pricing rules. Service-call fee, after-hours rate, free estimates for replacements but not repairs, whatever your rules are.
- Handles the "is he coming?" calls. It can see the schedule and tell the customer the tech's window, and text an on-the-way update when the tech marks it.
- Review requests. Two hours after a job closes, the customer gets a text asking for a Google review. More reviews, higher map ranking, more calls.
- Seasonal pause. Pause for up to 90 days a year if your busy season is short.
What owners tell us they were losing
A one-truck plumber who misses six calls a day and converts a third of them is leaving roughly two jobs a day on the table. At an average ticket of a few hundred dollars, that is real money every week, and the after-hours calls are usually the emergencies with the biggest tickets. The receptionist and text-back exist to catch exactly those.
Pricing
One-time setup plus a flat monthly fee. No per-minute billing, so a long "let me describe the noise it's making" call costs the same as a short one. We quote on the 15-minute call. We are based in Corona, in the Inland Empire, and work with home-service companies across the United States.

Questions we get about this
- Does it work with Housecall Pro or Jobber?
- Yes. It books real jobs into Housecall Pro, Jobber, ServiceTitan, FieldPulse, and Workiz, and into Google Calendar for smaller crews.
- Can it dispatch an emergency to my on-call tech?
- Yes. You define the emergency rules and the on-call number. It transfers live and, if there's no answer, books the first emergency slot and texts you.
- What if I only want it after hours?
- That's the most common setup. Forward after-hours and overflow only, and keep answering during the day yourself.
- Does it text back missed calls?
- Yes. Any call that rings out gets a text within seconds with a booking link, and the reply lands with the receptionist.
