TEXT-BACK ACTIVE
Illustrative data · Example conversation. Not a real customer.
Nothing goes live untested
Messages, escalation rules, and stop conditions are all verified with you before launch.
You stay in control
Diagnosis, discounts, and emergency calls stay with your team, never the system.
Your data stays yours
We never sell customer data, and you keep it if you ever leave.
Launch guarantee
If we delay the agreed launch date, your first management month is credited.
Installed and monitored for you
We set it up, test it, and keep watching after launch.
No long-term contract
Month-to-month management. Cancel with notice.
The system
From missed call to tracked outcome: pilot walkthrough.
The missed-call stages show the controlled pilot path. Starter quote follow-up and Growth outcomes run only for entitled organizations linked to the workspace.
See how it works →Example workflow (illustrative, not a live client feed)
Call captured
Missed and after-hours calls trigger an immediate bilingual text, before the customer dials anyone else.
Details collected
Name, address, service needed, urgency and photos, gathered in the customer's own language.
Technician alerted
The right technician, dispatcher or owner gets a complete job card on their phone.
Lead tracked
The request is logged in the founder/ops pilot path. An entitled organization can also use its linked, organization-scoped workspace; access is not self-serve.
Quote followed up · Starter pilot
Linked Starter pilots run day 1 / 3 / 7 / 14 follow-ups that stop on reply, opt-out, won/lost status, or human takeover.
Result measured
Marketing figures are illustrative. Entitled, linked Growth pilots can record pipeline outcomes and attributed revenue when a real value is supplied.
The problem
Three places contracts leak out.
None of it ever shows up as a lost sale. It shows up as a quiet drop in booked jobs that nobody can trace back to a cause.
The call nobody answers
Your crew is up a ladder. The phone rings out. Twenty seconds later that homeowner is calling the next company on Google, and they answer.
The quote that goes quiet
You send a $9,000 estimate, get busy, and never chase it. Three weeks later they signed with the contractor who sent one polite text.
The admin nobody bills for
Someone in your office spends half their day re-typing addresses, forwarding voicemails, chasing statuses and reminding customers. None of it is billable.
