An AI receptionist for local services
An AI receptionist for plumbers, electricians, cleaners, repair shops and auto services that answers calls on the job, collects quote requests with photos and captures every lead.
When you are on a roof or under a car you cannot answer the phone, and a missed call is a job that goes to a competitor. OctaDezx answers calls and messages, explains your services and areas, collects quote requests with photos in web chat and captures every lead for you to call back.
The everyday problem
Local service businesses lose work to missed calls and slow replies, and paying for a receptionist is hard to justify.
How OctaDezx helps
Give the agent a phone number, your services, areas and pricing guidance, and connect WhatsApp and your website. It answers, collects details and hands you ready-to-quote jobs.
Never miss a job
- Calls answered on the job. The voice agent answers in real time, takes details and transfers or takes voicemail when needed.
- Quote and job requests. Collects job details, address and preferred time and files the request.
- Photos of the problem. In web chat customers can upload a photo of the leak, damage or part.
- Service areas and pricing guidance. Answers whether you cover an area and explains your call-out and pricing guidance.
- Leads and follow-ups. Every enquiry becomes a lead with your follow-up playbook.
- WhatsApp and social. Messages on WhatsApp, Messenger and Instagram answered in the same thread.
A burst pipe call
Illustrative flow, not a customer transcript.
- 1. Call. A homeowner calls about a leak while you are on another job. The voice agent answers.
- 2. Details. It collects the address, urgency and a callback number.
- 3. Photo. The customer later sends a photo through the web chat link.
- 4. Callback. You see a complete job request and call back with a quote.
Service business limits
- The agent does not give binding quotes unless you supply fixed prices.
- Field service and dispatch software is not integrated.
- Photo reading works in web chat and the shareable link, not for photos sent in social DMs.
