AI for Trades & Contractors
You can't answer the phone with both hands in a furnace.
You're on the tools all day, underground, or up on a roof — and the phone keeps ringing. Every call that hits voicemail is a job that might go to the next shop, and the after-hours emergency you missed at 9pm is the one that pays the best. RevyTech AI builds you an AI receptionist that answers every call, texts you the urgent ones, and chases the quotes you don't have time to follow up — so the work stops slipping away.
Built for plumbers, HVAC, electrical, roofing, landscaping and the rest of the trades. Answers nights and weekends. Books straight into your calendar.
We know your day
The three ways the work leaks out.
Calls go to voicemail — and voicemail loses.
When you're mid-job you can't grab the phone, and most people who hit voicemail just call the next number. In a busy week that's real money walking out the door, and you never even knew it rang.
After-hours emergencies vanish.
The burst pipe at 10pm, the no-heat call on a Saturday — the highest-value, most urgent jobs come in exactly when there's no one to answer. By Monday, they've found someone else.
Quotes die unfollowed.
You send the quote, then you're back on the tools and it slips your mind. No follow-up, no nudge, no "still thinking about it?" — so it goes cold, and you're leaving signed jobs on the table because you were too busy doing the work.
None of this needs another office hire. It needs a system that never misses.
Built for the trades
Three pieces that stop the leak.
Most trades shops start with this bundle — the phone, the text-back, and the follow-up — fixed-quoted as one build, running under one Care Plan.
AI Receptionist.
Answers every call 24/7 in a friendly, natural voice. Handles the usual questions (hours, service area, rough pricing, "do you do X"), books the job into your calendar, and instantly texts you the moment something's a real emergency or needs a human. It tells callers it's an AI and always offers a person — no pretending.
Missed-call text-back.
If a call ever does slip through — you're on another line, it's the middle of a job — the caller gets an instant, friendly text: "Sorry we missed you — how can we help?" That one text keeps the lead warm and pulls it back before they dial your competitor.
Quote follow-up.
Every quote you send gets automatic, polite follow-ups — a nudge at 48 hours and again at a week — until the customer replies. The jobs that used to go cold from silence get a second and third chance to close, with zero effort from you.
Receptionist builds start at $3,500 and Workflow Automation (text-back + follow-up) from $2,500 — we fixed-quote the bundle to your setup after a free call. It runs on one Care Plan, from $299/mo (usually Growth, so the voice line stays well-tuned).
The math
What one recovered job a week is worth.
An illustrative example to show the shape of the return — not a guarantee, and not a promise about your business. Plug in your own numbers on the call; we'll show our assumptions the same way.
| Assumption (illustrative) | Value |
|---|---|
| Callable jobs currently lost to voicemail / after-hours | ~5 per week |
| The system books or saves just | 3 of them per week |
| Average job value | $400 |
| Recovered work per week (3 × $400) | $1,200 |
| Recovered work per month (~4.3 weeks) | ~$5,160 |
In this illustration, the recovered work in a single month roughly covers the entire first-year cost of the build and care. Even if the real number is half this, the phone paying for itself is the point. One missed emergency call is often worth more than a month of the care plan.
Honesty note: These are illustrative figures with our assumptions on the table — we don't quote missed-call "statistics" as fact. On your assessment call we'll estimate your recovered work using your numbers, and label it an estimate.
Why us
Local, plain-spoken, and we don't disappear.
We're the AI systems division of RevyTech, the Revelstoke IT company that's kept Kootenay businesses running since 2020 — so we already know how a trades shop actually operates. We build it around your calendar and your service area, we test it hard before it ever answers a customer, and then we keep it tuned every month so it doesn't drift. No offshore ticket queue, no set-and-forget app — a real BC-based human who built your system and answers when you call.
Questions
Straight answers for the trades.
I don't want a robot talking to my customers.
Fair — and here's the thing: it doesn't pretend to be a person, and it doesn't try to be you. It introduces itself as your AI assistant, handles the routine stuff (hours, booking, "are you open"), and the second a call needs a real human it texts you or transfers it. That means it frees you up for the calls that need your expertise, instead of you missing all of them because you were under a sink. You approve exactly how it sounds and what it's allowed to say before it goes live.
Can it tell a real emergency from a spam call?
Yes. We set the rules with you — what counts as urgent, what gets booked, what gets you texted immediately. It screens spam and robocalls, and for anything genuinely urgent it pings you (or the on-call person) right away with the caller's name, number and problem, and can transfer a live call. It won't leave you guessing, and it won't wake you up for a telemarketer.
I'm slammed all day — how much work is this for me to set up?
Almost none. We do the building. Your total time is about 2–3 hours across the whole project: a chat about your common questions and rules, a few test calls, and a sign-off. After go-live it runs itself, and the Care Plan handles the tuning. You stay on the tools; we handle the tech.
Does it really cover nights and weekends?
That's the biggest win. It answers around the clock — evenings, weekends, holidays, the 2am "are you open tomorrow." Those after-hours calls are usually your most valuable and most likely to be lost, and now they get answered, booked, or sent to you as a text. The work that used to walk to the next shop stays yours.
