CallAnswer is the AI answering service built for contractors — plumbers, HVAC techs, electricians, roofers, landscapers, and more. When you can't get to the phone, CallAnswer instantly texts the caller back, has a natural conversation to understand what they need, answers common questions, and books the appointment on your schedule. This app puts it all in your pocket. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See every recovered lead the moment a missed call comes in • Read the full AI-to-customer text conversation for any lead • Track lead status from new to booked • View upcoming appointments the AI has scheduled • Get push notifications for new leads and new bookings • Check your recovered-revenue stats at a glance WHY CONTRACTORS USE CALLANSWER 67% of callers hang up on voicemail and never call back. CallAnswer answers every missed call 24/7, for a fraction of what a traditional answering service costs — and unlike a human service that just takes a message, it actually books the job. A CallAnswer account is required to use this app. Accounts are created on the web at callanswer.net.
