Can it tell a real emergency from a 'kinda urgent'?

Yes. It asks two plain questions — 'is water actively coming out right now?' and 'is the main shutoff turned off?' — and routes accordingly. Real emergencies SMS you immediately with EMERGENCY in the subject line. Quotes get scheduled into your calendar without ringing your phone.

What if I only want it to pick up after 5 PM?

That's the most common setup for a one-truck Hamilton plumber. We forward your existing line on a schedule — your shop number rings you 8 to 5, then forwards to the AI for evenings, weekends, and statutory holidays. Or run the AI as your only line if you'd rather never field a Google call again.

Will it book onto my calendar or do I have to manually book?

Onto your calendar. It writes a Google Calendar event with the address, customer name, scope, and any quoted price-range, then SMS-confirms with the homeowner separately. Most Hamilton plumbing shops have it write to their existing Google or iCloud calendar — no new dashboard.

What does it do with permits or anything that needs a Master Plumber's input?

It transcribes what the customer said and SMS-flags the conversation to you with 'NEEDS PLUMBER REVIEW' so you call back. It doesn't pretend to know code. For a backflow preventer install or a permit pull, the AI books an estimate visit, not a service call.

What if a competitor is the one calling?

Happens. The AI doesn't share customer addresses or pricing on inbound. If the caller starts asking about your service area or rates 'just curious,' it stays generic and offers a callback from the owner.

Sunday 11 PM in Stoney Creek.

Sunday, 11:14 PM, Stoney Creek. A homeowner's basement is two inches deep and rising — laundry tub backed up, washing machine still pumping. Your phone rings. You're asleep. By the time you check the missed call Monday morning, the homeowner has already paid Mr. Rooter $640 to come out at 1 AM. volttus picks up on the second ring, asks where the water is, books the emergency call-out, and texts you "EMERGENCY — basement flood, Cherrywood Ave" before a callback would have hit your phone.

That's not a missed call. That's a paid Google Ad you bought, then handed to your competitor.

We built a voice agent for Hamilton plumbers. It picks up.

How it works

Three things you do. The agent does the rest.

01
You forward your line.

Same number you’ve been giving to customers for ten years. We just answer the calls you can’t.
02
We teach it your shop.

Your services. Your pricing rules. Your service area — Stoney Creek, Ancaster, the Mountain, wherever you actually drive. Your overflow rules. Your dispatcher’s number.
03
It works the phone.

Picks up in under two seconds. Books the job into your calendar. Texts you the address while you’re still on the ladder. Transfers the emergencies.

Built in Hamilton

It knows the difference between Stinson and Stoney Creek. Toronto's agents don't.

Service area, neighbourhood pricing, dispatch zones, the way Hamilton trades actually quote — all tuned for the 905, 289, and 365. Real calls. Real books. Real Hamilton.

Stoney Creek Saturday, 6 AM

"My basement is filling up." Agent dispatches the on-call number, texts you the address, books a 7 AM slot.
Ancaster Tuesday, 2 PM

"Quote for a kitchen reno." Agent qualifies it, books a site visit Thursday, asks for square footage and access notes.
The Mountain Wednesday, 11 PM

"AC died, my mom is 84." Agent flags emergency, transfers the call to your phone with the address already on screen.
Dundas Friday, 4:55 PM

"How much for a panel upgrade?" Agent quotes your stock answer, books a free estimate for Monday morning.

What it does

It does six things. It does them well. That's the trade.

01
Picks up in under two seconds.

No "press 1 for service." No hold music. The phone rings, it answers, the customer talks.
02
Books straight into your calendar.

Google Calendar or Cal.com — the job is on your phone before the customer hangs up. No new dashboard. No CRM you have to learn.
03
Filters the tire-kickers.

Asks the qualifying questions you’d ask if you weren’t holding a wrench. Sorts a $5,000 reno from a "just curious."
04
Texts you what you actually need.

Name, address, scope, urgency, estimated value. Not a transcript. Not an email. A one-screen text.
05
Hands you the calls that need a human.

Big jobs, emergencies, repeat customers — it transfers them to you with the context already loaded. No re-asking.
06
Doesn’t pretend to be a person.

It tells callers it’s an AI. Hamilton trades respect that. Most callers do too.

How the AI agent earns the truck

Five promises the AI agent keeps — so it shows up like a good hire.

Most AI voice agents are sold by people who would lie to your customers. We won't. Here's what the AI agent does — and what it never does — to earn its place on your shop's phone.

It doesn’t pretend to be human.

No fake name. No fake voice quirks. We won’t call her "Sarah" or "Maya" or any of the names other vendors use to lie to your customers.
It doesn’t lock you in.

No annual contract. No setup fee. Cancel by text. We charge by the month because we have to earn it every month.
It doesn’t bill you per minute.

Flat monthly. Overages are ¢ per call, not ¢ per minute. You shouldn’t pay more because a customer wants to chat.
It isn’t built in Toronto.

We’re in Hamilton. We answer email from Hamilton. The agent learns your service area in Hamilton terms — Stoney Creek, Ancaster, the Mountain, Dundas — not "GTA West."
It doesn’t sell your data.

Calls are encrypted, PIPEDA-compliant, hosted in Canada. Transcripts are yours. We don’t train on your customers’ phone calls. The number on your truck is yours; the leads on it are yours.

Pricing, on the page

Two plans. No setup fee. No contract.

Flat monthly. Cancel by text. Thirty days, money back, no questions. Hamilton-only price lock for the first 50 trades. Before you buy, phone the AI agent — that's the demo.
