What contractors ask before handing over the phone.

AINORA identifies emergency keywords (burst pipe, gas smell, no heat, flooding, sewer backup) and immediately collects critical details: address, nature of emergency, safety status, and system details. It routes to the on-call technician via phone, SMS, or app notification. Response time from call to dispatch is under 60 seconds.
Yes. AINORA understands the difference between job types - furnace repair vs AC installation vs drain cleaning vs water heater replacement. It matches the right specialist to each job, checks their availability and service area, and books the appointment with all relevant details.
Yes. AINORA is configured with your specific services, whether you handle HVAC only, plumbing only, or both. The AI understands equipment types, common issues, and the terminology for each trade. It can also handle electrical, drain, and general mechanical services.
Yes. AINORA can explain your maintenance plan options to callers, highlight the benefits (priority service, discounted repairs, extended equipment life), and enroll them on the spot. For existing plan members, AI tracks their schedule and proactively books seasonal tune-ups.
The AI gathers all relevant details from the caller - system type and age, scope of work, home size, current issues, timeline, and access requirements. This information is packaged and sent to your estimator so they can prepare an accurate quote, often before the site visit. This eliminates the back-and-forth phone tag that delays quoting.
The same records a CSR creates by hand: the customer, the service location, the job with its type and priority, the appointment against a technician and a time window, and the call notes carrying the symptom description in the caller’s own words. Where your platform exposes an API and your plan includes access, that write happens live while the caller is still on the phone. Where it does not, the job lands in front of a dispatcher who accepts it in one click and the customer still gets the SMS immediately. We establish which of the two applies to your account in the first week, against your actual install rather than a feature list, and we tell you before you commit.
That is the most common reason contractors start. The difference is what the caller has at the end of the conversation. An answering service takes a message and a human decides in the morning whether it was urgent, which means a no-heat call at 02:00 in January is triaged six hours late. The agent triages on the call using the questions you wrote, wakes the on-call technician only for what meets your threshold, and books everything else into the first real slot. The nights nobody wants to staff are exactly where the difference shows.
Only if your own threshold says it should, and that threshold is written by you, not by us. Gas smell, no heat in freezing conditions, active flooding and sewer backup are typical wake conditions. A dripping tap at midnight is not, and the agent books it for the morning instead. This is the setting contractors tune most in the first fortnight, because the cost of a false alarm at 03:00 is real and so is the cost of a missed one. Every wake decision is in the transcript, so you can see what triggered it and tighten the rule rather than guess.
