AI receptionist for Toronto home services companies.
Every missed call answered by text in seconds — while you're still under the house.
Nobody has measured what happens when a Toronto home services companie misses a call after six, so we are not going to tell you. What we can show you is the figure below, its source, and the build that answers instead. Read the speed-to-lead playbook →
This describes the build, not the market. Missed-call figures circulate for the trades, but every one we traced led back to a company selling missed-call services, citing a study that reports a different metric. We would rather show you nothing than repeat it, and we have not run our own yet.
In Toronto
Toronto is not one market. A practice on Bay Street and one off Kingston Road take different calls at different hours, and the only thing they reliably share is the size of the alternative — somebody who cannot reach you has a dozen options within a subway ride. Intake here fails by volume rather than by neglect: the call arrives while you are already with someone.
A Toronto call-out is expensive to estimate blind: parking, permit, and whether the van can get near the property at all. Capturing the address, the building type and the access constraint on the first call is the difference between a quote that holds and a day priced wrong.
The first company to answer gets the furnace job.
You're in an attic, a crawl space, or on a roof. The phone rings out. In Toronto, that homeowner is calling the next three numbers on the results page, and the first one to pick up books the job.
Missed-call text-back fires the instant a call goes unanswered: the agent triages the urgency, quotes your service-call fee, and books the estimate into your calendar. Quotes that go out get followed up on day 2, 5, and 12 — in your voice, with a one-tap booking link — instead of when someone remembers.
How it runs
What it handles
Voice and SMS are built on Twilio and Vapi, in accounts opened in your name — we assemble and configure them rather than reselling a product of our own, and we will tell you the monthly carrier cost before you approve anything. We have not yet run one of these for a client, so you would be the first, and the scope and price say so plainly.
Missed-call rescue for an HVAC company
Any unanswered ring gets an instant text that triages, quotes the call-out fee, and books the estimate. Every quote then follows itself up three times.

Scope first, price second — you approve a fixed price with the written plan before anything is built. How pricing works →
Instant text-back on every unanswered call, urgency triage, and estimates booked into your calendar. Runs on the number you already have.
Intake, quote follow-up, seasonal campaigns, and reporting — built on the phone number and quoting software you already pay for.
Toronto questions.
No. It runs on the number already on your truck, your website, and your Google listing. Nothing changes for the customer calling you.
It quotes what you tell it to quote — typically the service-call fee and standard callouts — and books the estimate. Anything needing a real look becomes a booked visit rather than a number it made up.
No heat in February gets triaged differently from a maintenance request: the agent flags urgency, offers the soonest slot, and texts you directly so you can decide whether to reroute your day.
Yes — it can confirm whether a caller's postal code is inside your service area before booking, so you stop driving across the GTA for jobs you didn't want.
