The whole front desk

Everything your AI front desk does for plumbers

From a blocked drain to a 2am burst pipe, here's everything your AI front desk handles the moment a plumbing job lands.

Every channel, answered 24/7

Phone, SMS and website chat — however the customer reaches out, the AI answers and books instantly. Nights, weekends and public holidays included. No missed calls, no bounced texts.

Checks your calendar, books the job

It reads your live ServiceM8 calendar, offers only times you’re actually free, and locks the job in — client, job type and suburb attached. No double-bookings, ever.

Three booking tiers, your call

Choose how hands-off you go: Tier 1 captures the lead, Tier 2 books with a one-tap yes, Tier 3 adds emergency handling. You set the rules the AI plays by.

Reschedules & cancellations handled

Customers move or cancel without calling you. The AI offers new times, updates the diary, and only pings you when it’s last-minute. Freed slots reopen automatically.

Emergency escalation

Safety-critical jobs skip the queue — the call transfers straight to you with an instant SMS. The big after-hours work lands in your diary instead of someone else’s.

ServiceM8 sync & auto-invoicing

Every booking drops into ServiceM8 the moment it’s confirmed, and the invoice sends automatically on job completion. One system, zero double entry.

Plumbers FAQ

Common questions

How does the AI handle a 2am burst-pipe emergency?
It identifies the job as a genuine plumbing emergency, collects the address and details, transfers the call straight to you and sends an SMS instantly — so the high-value after-hours work lands with you even if you miss the transfer.
Can it book renovations and quotes, not just emergencies?
Yes. For bathroom and kitchen renos it collects the full scope upfront and books a measure-up, while routine jobs like tap and toilet repairs are auto-confirmed — the whole mix is handled.
Do my customers need an app to reach the AI?
No. They text or ring your number exactly like they always have — plain SMS works on any phone, so even the older customers who only text never slip through.
Your trade. Your rules.

Never miss a burst-pipe call again.
