Trades path

Lead capture, not legal advice
The AI captures requests and routes edge cases to you.

Example results are not guarantees. Revenue recovered depends on your call volume, local demand, service area, response time, and close rate. VoiceDepot answers calls and captures leads; you remain responsible for licensing, pricing, dispatch, and customer follow-up.

The math

Plumbers lose $125,000/year to missed calls.

Average ticket on a residential call: $350–$500. Average missed-call rate when you're on a job: 5 calls a day. That's $1,750–$2,500 walking out the door every single day.

Your AI receptionist picks up before the third ring. Books the job. Texts you the customer. Pays for itself with the first captured lead.

How it works

Setup in 5 minutes. From your phone. No app to install.

1.
Drop your business phone
No email yet. Just type your number. We need 30 seconds.
2.
Call your AI number
The AI asks 4 quick questions: your business name, your custom greeting, your hours, and whether to text leads to you or promise a callback. Takes about 4 minutes.
3.
Test it, then forward
We text you a new AI number. Call it first — hear Tony answer with your greeting. Once it sounds right, forward your business line with one command: *72 → your AI number.
4.
Get leads by text instantly
Customer calls. Tony answers. You get a text: 'Sarah — burst pipe, basement, 303-555-1234. She's expecting a callback.' That's it.

Common questions

Smart questions tradesmen ask.

Will it sound like a robot?+

No. Tony uses a natural human-sounding voice — confident, direct, contractor-tier. Most customers never know they're talking to AI. If you want, you can choose to disclose it ('This is an AI assistant for [Business]'). We've found most tradesmen don't bother.

How does Tony learn my business?+

During the 5-minute setup call, Tony asks you 4 quick questions: your confirmed business name, how you want callers greeted, your hours, and whether you want leads texted to you or a callback promised. Then we load your website so Tony can answer questions about your services. That's it — no scripts, no recording, no CRM.

What happens when a customer calls?+

Tony answers, uses your greeting, and handles the call. If the caller wants to book: Tony captures their name, number, and what they need — then texts you immediately so you can call them back. Or Tony can tell them 'I'll have [your name] call you right back to schedule.' You set the preference during setup.

Do I need to keep my old phone number?+

Yes. We don't replace your number — we give you a NEW AI number. You forward your business calls to it when you're on a job. Your number on the truck, the website, Google Business — all stays exactly the same.

What if Tony can't answer something?+

Tony texts you immediately with the caller's name, number, and question. You call them back when you're free. Tony also tells the caller you'll be in touch shortly. No one hangs up empty-handed.

How much does it cost?+

$99/month. 14-day free trial, no credit card. Just forward your calls. Lead texts and call answering included. High-volume plans available. Cancel anytime, 30-day money-back after trial.

How long does setup take?+

About 5 minutes. Submit your phone number, get a local AI number by text, call it to test the greeting, then forward your line when it sounds right.

How do I turn it off?+

Dial *73 from your business phone. Forwarding stops. Your regular line works as normal. To turn it back on: dial *72 → your AI number → hang up when Tony answers.

What if I'm not technical at all?+

That's the point. There's no app to install. No CRM to connect. No 'integration workflow.' Phone forwards. Tony answers. You get a text. If you get stuck, reply HELP to any of our SMS messages — or book a free 5-minute call and we'll do it with you live.

Stop missing jobs. Start capturing them.
