The Problem

One missed call is
eight thousand dollars gone.

The average HVAC company misses one in three calls. Seventy-eight percent of customers call the next business on the list. Your voicemail is costing you jobs that never existed in your pipeline.

30%

of your calls never reach a human today.

What We Built

So we built VOX.

An AI voice agent trained on your business. It answers the phone in your voice. Asks the right questions for your trade. Books the job directly into your calendar. At 2pm or at 2am. While you're on another call or asleep.

Caller

"Hi — I think my furnace is out. It's like 40 degrees in here."

VOX

Oh no, that's no good. I can get someone out to you. Can you confirm your address and a phone number we can text the technician?

Caller

"Yeah, 1420 Maple Street, and the number's five-five-five two zero one seven."

VOX

Got it. I have a technician available at 3:15 today or 9:00 tomorrow morning. Which works better?

Caller

"Today, please — 3:15."

VOX

Done. You're booked for 3:15. I've texted the technician your address and let our owner know. Anything else?

The Promise

You handle the pipes.
We handle the AI.

You won't log into a dashboard. You won't watch a webinar. You won't be trained. You'll answer a few questions about your business, and a week later your phone will be answered by something that sounds like you and books jobs better than your receptionist.

The Builders

Two people.
Not a department.

No account managers. No ticket queues. When you call, you get Jarod. When something needs building, Carl builds it. You text us at 7pm? We'll text back.

Your phone
should be ringing.

If it is — VOX is answering it. If it isn't, twenty minutes with Jarod will tell you why and what to do about it. No pitch deck.
