Electrical
can't wait for you to climb down.
Greg is an AI receptionist built for electricians: it answers every call 24/7, flags genuine electrical hazards for immediate escalation, and books service calls and estimate visits against your real calendar. No voicemail, no lost after-hours emergencies, no panel-upgrade lead going cold while you're in an attic.

Never call back after one unanswered call
A hot panel doesn't wait for business hours
The Problem
Electrical work makes you unreachable exactly when the phone rings.
Service businesses miss 35–45% of inbound calls during working hours — and electrical has a structural version of the problem: you physically can't take a call with your hands in a live panel, and the calls you're missing are disproportionately safety-driven. A homeowner who thinks their house might catch fire doesn't leave a voicemail. They call the next name on Google.
A sparking outlet is a drop-everything call
A burning smell from a panel, half the house dead, a breaker that won't reset — the homeowner treats it as a fire risk, not a maintenance ticket. They call down the Google results until a human (or something that sounds like one) picks up.
You can't answer with both hands in a panel
Live work means gloves on, phone in the truck. A residential service electrician is unreachable for most of the working day by design — and that's exactly when the next week of work is calling in.
Two very different calls, one phone line
A dead outlet is a same-day service call. A panel upgrade, EV charger, or rewire is an estimate-first job with a site visit. When one line catches both, messages get mangled: emergencies wait behind quote requests, and big-ticket estimates get booked like $150 service calls.
What Greg Does For Electricians
on every single call.
Answers every call, on the ladder or off
Attic runs, panel swaps, weekends — Greg picks up in seconds and sounds like a real front desk, so a no-power call never lands in voicemail.
Flags genuine electrical hazards
Burning smell, buzzing panel, sparking outlet, exposed wiring — Greg recognizes hazard language, tells the caller the immediate safety step, and pushes an urgent alert to you or your on-call electrician.
Routes service calls and estimates differently
A tripped GFCI gets booked as a same-day service call. An EV charger install or panel upgrade gets captured with the details you need and queued as a site-visit estimate — not squeezed into a service slot.
Texts back every missed call instantly
If a call ever slips through, the caller gets a text within seconds — before they've dialed the next electrician in the search results.
Logs the job before you roll a truck
Address, panel or breaker details, what's dead and since when, urgency, callback number — all in your CRM in real time, readable from your phone.
Chases the estimates that go quiet
Quoted a panel upgrade and the homeowner disappeared? Greg sends the follow-up so a four-figure job doesn't die in a text thread.
Not Just Another Answering Service
An answering service takes a message. Electrical intake needs a decision.
The difference matters most in this trade: every inbound call needs to be sorted — hazard, service call, or estimate visit — and each of the three gets handled differently. A generic AI answering tool writes all three down the same way and leaves the sorting to you at 6pm. Greg makes the call in the moment: escalate the hot panel now, book the dead outlet for tomorrow morning, and capture the EV charger lead with enough detail to quote the site visit properly.
And because it's one system from first ring to booked job, the rest comes with it — missed-call text-back in seconds, every job logged to your CRM before you roll a truck, and automatic follow-up on the panel-upgrade quotes that would otherwise go quiet.
