Why this matters

Most missed calls never come back.

Springs snap on cold mornings. Cars get trapped. Doors won't close and the house sits wide open. AnswersDesk AI catches those calls, triages the problem, and sends you the details fast — even when your team is up a ladder, closed, or off the clock.

Answer every call

Every call answered on the first ring — including "loud bang, door won't budge" at 9 PM. No more lost jobs while you're closed.

Every lead, fully triaged

Before the call ends, your agent knows their name, contact info, and what broke — spring, opener, or off-track — so your tech shows up with the right parts, and the customer gets it all confirmed by text.

Book the appointment

A trapped car or a wide-open house gets flagged as an emergency and booked straight onto your calendar — synced live with Google or Outlook, no callback needed.

You're notified in 30 seconds — every time

The moment a call ends, you get a text: who called, what broke, and whether it's booked. No checking apps. No missing jobs while you're torquing a spring.

The Problem

Three ways garage door companies lose jobs every day

None of them have anything to do with the quality of your work.

Calls go unanswered

Home-services businesses miss roughly 27% of inbound calls — and fewer than 3% of those callers leave a voicemail. Every missed ring is a spring or install job gone quiet.

Speed decides who gets the job

A homeowner with a trapped car or a wide-open house calls until someone picks up. Whoever answers first usually wins the job.

Callbacks come too late

MIT research found leads are 100x more likely to be reached, and 21x more likely to qualify, when contacted within 5 minutes vs. 30. By the time you call back, they've booked someone else.

How It Works

Your agent triages the call. You get a text.

No app to check. No portal to log into. Just results in your pocket.

1

Customer calls your number

Your AI agent picks up on the first ring — nights, weekends, holidays, mid-storm. No voicemail. No hold music.

2

Agent triages the problem

Spring, opener, off-track, or entrapment — asks the right questions and flags true emergencies instantly. Sounds professional — not robotic.

3

Job books to your calendar

Emergency or standard, it lands on your Google or Outlook calendar, reminder sent, customer texted — all without you lifting a finger.

4

You get a text summary

Within 30 seconds of the call ending: who called, what broke, and what was booked.

This isn't AI-only. On any urgent call, your agent can transfer live to you or a team member immediately — no cold transfers, no dead air, no waiting on a callback.

Real appointments, confirmed in real time — including same-day emergency slots. Customer gets a text confirmation immediately.

Syncs live with Google Calendar or Outlook — no double-booking, no manual entry

Every job tracked from call to closed sale

See every customer — what broke, what it quoted at, whether it got booked, and whether it closed.

Customer
Hi, my garage door won't close all the way — it stops halfway and reverses. Do you service my area?
Your Agent
Yes, we've got you covered. That sounds like a misaligned safety sensor — I can get someone out today. Can I get your name?
Customer
It's Mike. New customer — the house is left open at night when this happens.
Your Agent
Got it, Mike — I'll flag that as priority. I have an opening today at 3 PM, does that work?
Priority Job Booked — 3:00 PM Today Mike — Safety sensor issue, house left open. Confirmation sent to customer.

Not Just Another Chatbot

Why this costs more than a $39/mo chatbot app — and pays for itself anyway

Self-serve AI chatbots are cheap because you do all the work yourself. Here's exactly what the difference buys you.

$39/mo Chatbot App
  • You build the flows, scripts, and FAQs yourself
  • Generic responses — doesn't know a spring from an opener
  • Chat widget only — no live phone answering
  • You're the support team when something breaks

A $39/mo chatbot is cheap because it hands the work back to you. Recover starts at $495/mo and includes the setup, training, and ongoing management most agencies charge $1,500+ upfront for. Read the full comparison →

FAQ

Questions we get every time

How does the free trial work?
You get 14 days with no card required. The trial runs a basic version of the agent — answering calls, triaging the essentials, and booking straight to your calendar — so you can hear it work before committing. When you activate a paid plan, we build out the full version: your complete service catalog, custom dispatch rules, SMS compliance, and (on Recover Plus) automated follow-up and reporting.
Can I use my current phone number?
Yes. We set up a dedicated line that your existing number forwards to — so your published number stays the same. Customers call the same number they always have. The AI answers. You get the alert.
Does it know the difference between a spring, an opener, and an off-track door?
Yes. It's configured on your service catalog and asks the same diagnostic questions a trained dispatcher would — loud bang and won't lift usually means a broken spring; stops and reverses usually means a sensor or opener issue. It captures the symptom so your tech shows up with the right parts. Call (720) 548-2551 right now and hear it yourself.
What happens on a car-trapped-inside or house-left-open call?
Those are flagged as emergencies automatically. The agent calms the caller, gets their name, address, and situation, and escalates immediately to you or your on-call tech — it doesn't sit in a normal booking queue.
How long does setup take?
Most shops are live within 3–5 days. We handle everything — agent configuration, calendar sync, CRM setup, and SMS compliance. You answer a few questions about your services and we build it. No technical work on your end.
What if the AI says something wrong to my customer?
It only works from the script and information you approve — your services, your service area, and your booking rules. It doesn't improvise pricing or make promises it shouldn't. If a caller asks something outside what it's been given, it takes their details and hands the conversation to you instead of guessing. You review and refine exactly how it talks during setup.
Can it handle angry or difficult callers?
Yes. It stays calm and professional no matter the tone, acknowledges the customer's frustration, and focuses on getting them scheduled or routed to you fast. For genuinely sensitive situations it captures the details and alerts you immediately so you can step in. Call (720) 548-2551 and try to rattle it — that's the best way to see for yourself.
Does it quote prices for spring or opener repairs?
Only if you want it to. By default it captures the details and books the appointment, leaving pricing to you directly. If you have standard rates or service fees, we can configure it to share those exact numbers — and nothing else.
Home-services shops miss about 1 in 4 calls (Invoca). At a $300–$450 average ticket, that's real spring and install jobs walking to the next number in the search results.
