AI Receptionist for Appliance Repair Shops
A freezer thawing in a heatwave is an emergency. Your AI Receptionist answers, captures the appliance make and model, and books the service window — without putting anyone on hold.
// THE PROBLEM
The appliance repair phone problem
Appliance repair lives on call volume — and the phone never stops. Techs in the field can't answer; the office can't keep up; calls drop or roll to voicemail and customers move on.
- Emergencies (freezer thawing, fridge dead) can't wait for a callback.
- Customers don't know the model number; intake takes time the office doesn't have.
- Out-of-warranty vs. in-warranty routing gets handled wrong by overwhelmed staff.
- Quote-only callers tie up the line.
