AI Receptionist for Electricians
Every missed call is either an urgent fault call or a quote worth several thousand.
Electrical work splits your phone into two very different calls. One is someone with a dead circuit or a burning smell who needs an answer now. The other is a homeowner planning a rewire or a panel upgrade, comparing three sparkies before deciding.
You lose both the same way — the phone rings while you are up a ladder with your hands full.
How it handles each
For the urgent call it takes the details immediately and flags what is happening, so you can triage from the message rather than ringing back blind to ask what is wrong.
For the quote call it does the patient work you rarely have time for: what the job is, the property type, the rough timeline, and a slot in your calendar to come and look.
The safety line
It does not advise on whether something is safe. Anything that sounds like burning, sparking, shock or water near electrics becomes an urgent message to a human, and the caller is told to treat it as an emergency rather than wait for a callback.
Questions electricians ask
Can it tell a dangerous fault from a routine job?
It asks the safety questions you brief it with - burning smell, sparking, whether the power is off at the board, whether anyone has had a shock - and flags the call urgent. Think of it as a triage sheet that answers at 3am, not as an electrician.
Will it give electrical advice to a caller?
No, and that is deliberate. It takes the details and says what you briefed it to say. It will not talk anyone through opening a consumer unit, because the liability on a wrong answer is worth more than any single call.
Can it handle both domestic and commercial enquiries?
Yes. Brief it to ask different questions depending on whether the caller is a homeowner or a site contact, so commercial enquiries arrive with the site address and the person actually on site rather than just a mobile number.
What about calls for work I do not take on?
Brief it on what you do not do and it will say so politely and still take a message. A caller told no in thirty seconds thinks better of you than one who waits two days for a callback that says the same thing.
Does it work when I am on a job with no signal?
Yes. It answers on our line, not on your handset, so your own signal makes no difference. The transcript is waiting when you are back in range.
