Construction & Contractor Answering Service That's Also Your Phone System

CallAfter-hours emergencyAIAI answered
“Pipe burst, there's water everywhere.”
Walks the caller to the shutoff, flags it a true emergency by your rules, and rings your on-call tech, then texts the customer an ETA. It only wakes you if your rules say a human must.

What's different from forwarding calls to an AI receptionist?
Most AI receptionists just forward the calls you miss to their AI, so they only ever see those. Fast Response is the business line itself, so every call lands in one place.

Contractors, in depth
How much does a missed call cost you?
Why do contractors miss calls, and what does it cost?
The phone rings while you're under a sink, and a customer with a job doesn't leave a voicemail; they call the next name on the list. You never hear about the work you didn't get. Fast Response rings your crew first, and if nobody's free the AI answers, asks what the job is and where, quotes from your price ranges, and books the estimate. You get a text with name, address and job while you're still on the roof.
A missed call from a homeowner planning a remodel is a job you never hear about. They don't leave a voicemail; they call the next contractor.
What happens when a call comes in while you're on a job?
The call rings your team for as long as you set, then the AI picks up. It answers the usual questions (“Are you licensed?” “Do you service my area?”), books the visit, or flags an emergency to whoever is on call. Every call, yours or the AI's, is recorded and summarized in the app, so the office sees what was promised. On Pro, an automation can text the caller a follow-up based on what they said.
How much does a contractor answering service cost?
Human services: $200-500 a month, per call or per minute. Fast Response: $29 a month for the line, AI and texting; $79 for team accounts, automations and a shared number for the trucks; $249 for outbound review requests and seasonal reminders. No contract.
Fast Response starts at $29/mo, and $79/mo covers your whole crew with no per-seat fees and no contract, far below the $200–$500/mo a traditional call center runs. You only pay more if you pass your monthly allowances. See full pricing →
Yes. AI asks your qualifying questions, scores the lead, and routes the good ones to you — so you spend callback time only on real jobs.
The call rings your crew first, then the AI answers and books the work, so the job doesn't go to the next contractor. Customers who text your business number instead get an instant AI reply from the same number, in the same inbox.
Yes. The AI answers 24/7, triages by rules you set, and rings your on-call number for true emergencies while booking routine work into your next open slot.
Yes. Junk and telemarketing calls are screened out, so you're not dropping a tool for a warranty scam.
Yes. Estimates and site visits are booked directly onto your connected calendar, with a confirmation text to the customer.
Yes. You can port your existing number over to Fast Response, or keep it where it is and forward missed calls to your AI assistant. In our mobile app, your personal calls and Fast Response calls are clearly labeled on the call screen, so you always know which is which.
Yes. On any plan you can place calls and send single texts from the web or mobile app, and the AI can send one-to-one follow-up texts on your behalf. Mass outbound calling and texting — importing a list and launching campaigns — is on the Scale plan and requires A2P registration (approval usually takes 2–3 weeks). You're always in control of what goes out.
The AI answers calls in up to 40 languages and switches to the caller's language automatically. Transcripts are accurate in 10 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian and Dutch.
All data is encrypted in transit and stored on U.S.-based servers. Your recordings, transcripts, and summaries stay private unless you choose to share them, and we never sell your data.
