AI RECEPTIONIST FOR PLUMBERS
The receptionist speaks naturally, but every business action runs through a narrow, logged and tenant-scoped tool.
Natural speech is only the caller-facing layer. The receptionist cannot freely browse company systems or write arbitrary data. It receives a published version of the business greeting, hours, services, ZIP coverage, FAQs, transfer destinations and emergency rules. Actions are limited to named tools with validated inputs.
READ
Hours, services, coverage and FAQs come from owner-verified records.
CHECK
ZIP, usage, recording and escalation checks do not rely only on model judgment.
WRITE
Lead, request and transfer tools are validated, logged and idempotent.
The model identifies conversational intent and extracts candidate facts. The application then verifies what can be verified. A ZIP tool returns eligible, ineligible or unknown. A service lookup returns the company’s actual approved offering. An emergency policy combines explicit hazard signals with the owner’s rules. A lead tool refuses malformed or cross-tenant data.
This separation matters. A confident sentence from a model is not evidence that a service is offered, a transfer connected or an appointment exists. The caller hears confirmation only after the responsible system returns success.
“Emergency” is not a marketing label. Reports involving gas, fire, electrical danger, immediate personal danger or severe flooding enter a restricted branch. The receptionist uses approved wording and the configured transfer or emergency-services response. It does not diagnose the source or tell the caller what to dismantle, disconnect or repair.
Published receptionist configurations are versioned. A call retains the exact version it used, so a later edit does not rewrite history. The business can review the intent, urgency, structured facts, transfer timeline, summary and the tools the AI called. Recording is separate, off by default until consent rules are approved, and governed by a retention date.
Dispatchers still resolve ambiguous scheduling, customer history, pricing exceptions and service judgment. Plumbers still diagnose and perform the work. Owners still approve business facts, emergency rules, transfers, hours, pricing and retention. The product removes repeated first-response work; it does not remove accountable human decisions.
AI QUESTIONS
The final disclosure wording is configured and reviewed before launch. The product must not misrepresent the system or use a fake personal identity.
No. Extracted or suggested facts require owner approval. The live receptionist reads from a published, versioned configuration and cannot edit its own knowledge.
It asks for clarification, captures a minimum callback message or follows the configured human fallback. It must not invent a ZIP result, transfer or booking.
Each call records its outcome, tools used, structured facts, transfer state, transcript policy and usage. Sensitive access and retention are role-controlled.
