Frequently asked questions

How much does an AI chatbot cost for a small business?

DIY chatbot software costs $49–$99/month, but you build and configure it yourself. A done-for-you AI website assistant like ours is a flat $297/month — build, training, installation, and ongoing management included, with no per-chat or per-minute fees.

How much does an AI answering service cost per month?

Human answering services typically cost $200–$600+/month billed per call or per minute. Our AI answering service is a flat $297/month for one website ($997/month for up to five), with free setup and no usage meter.

Can AI answer my business phone calls after hours?

Yes. Our AI answers your business calls and website chats 24/7 — nights, weekends, and holidays — trained on your services, pricing, and booking rules. True emergencies are routed to your on-call line instantly.

What is the best AI chatbot for contractors?

The best chatbot for a contractor is trained on the trade: emergency triage (burst pipes, no-heat calls, outages), your services and pricing, and your booking process — and managed for you so it stays accurate. We build exactly that for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and roofing companies.

How do I stop missing calls when I'm on a job site?

Stop trying to answer everything yourself. A 24/7 AI receptionist picks up every call and website chat, qualifies the job by urgency, and texts you what's ready to book — so time on the tools never costs you the next job.

AI receptionist vs human answering service — which is better for a small business?

Human services take messages; you still do the callback. An AI receptionist resolves: it answers questions from your business info, books appointments, and captures qualified leads on the spot — 24/7, for a flat rate instead of per-call billing.

Can an AI chatbot book appointments on my website?

Yes. Ours books by your rules — cleanings, estimates, service calls, campus tours — confirms details with the visitor on the spot, and alerts you with the full booking profile.

How does an AI website assistant capture leads?

It greets visitors, answers their questions, and naturally collects name, contact info, and job details during the conversation — then routes hot leads to you instantly by text or email, 24/7.

Will an AI chatbot work with my existing website?

Yes. It's one small snippet pasted into your site — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, or custom builds all work. We handle the installation free as part of setup.

Do I need to train the AI myself, or is it done for me?

Done for you. We interview you, map your services, pricing, policies, and booking rules, build the assistant, and keep managing it as your business changes. You never touch a dashboard unless you want to.

Can AI qualify leads before sending them to me?

Yes. It qualifies by urgency, service need, budget signals, service area, and contact completeness — so you get ready-to-book jobs, not tire-kickers, texted to you in real time.

What happens when the AI can't answer a question?

It says so honestly, captures the visitor's contact info and question, and routes it to you immediately — then we review the gap and train it to handle that question next time.

Is a $297/month AI assistant cheaper than hiring a receptionist?

Dramatically. A receptionist costs $3,000–$4,500/month for 40 hours a week. Our assistant is $297/month and works 24/7 — nights, weekends, holidays — with no payroll taxes, sick days, or turnover.

How fast should a business answer website inquiries to win the job?

Within 5 minutes — after that, your chance of reaching the lead drops fast, and most callers who hit voicemail just call the next business. Our AI answers in seconds, 24/7.

Can one AI assistant handle multiple business locations or websites?

Yes — our Business tier ($997/month) covers up to five websites and assistants, built for multi-location owners, franchises, and multi-brand businesses.

Does an AI chatbot work for emergency service businesses?

It's built for them. Plumbing, HVAC, and electrical assistants run your emergency triage rules: burst pipes, no-heat calls, gas smells, and outages get flagged instantly and paged to your on-call line while routine work gets booked normally.

How do I add an AI chat widget to my WordPress/Wix/Squarespace site?

You paste one snippet we give you — or we do it for you free during setup. No plugins to configure, no code to write.

Will customers know they're talking to an AI?

It introduces itself as your business's assistant and focuses on being genuinely helpful. Most visitors just notice they got an instant, accurate answer — even at 11pm.

Can an AI assistant answer questions in Spanish?

Yes — multilingual support is available. Tell us which languages your customers speak during setup and we'll configure it.

What is the difference between a chatbot and an AI receptionist?

A chatbot is usually a scripted website widget that answers FAQs. An AI receptionist is a trained assistant that holds real conversations — across calls and website chat — qualifies leads, books appointments, and routes emergencies. Ours is the second one.
