How It Works
From missed call to booked job in seconds
No apps for your crew to learn. It runs on the number you already advertise.
The call comes in
A homeowner calls about ac repair & install. Your AI receptionist picks up on the first ring - no hold music, no voicemail.
It qualifies the lead
Natural conversation that pulls job type, address, urgency, and budget - then scores it automatically so you know who to prioritize.
The slot gets booked
It reads your real Google Calendar availability and books the appointment on the spot. No double-bookings, instant confirmation.
You get the details
Name, number, job details, qualification score, and booked appointment time hit your phone. Show up and close.
Why ClientRelay
A full front desk, for less than one shift of wages.
All-in-one: phone and video
AI phone answering and a video-avatar receptionist in one platform. Every channel lands in a single dashboard - no juggling multiple tools.
Flat pricing, no per-minute meter
Ruby charges $235-$1,640/mo with per-minute billing. Smith.ai starts near $975/mo. ClientRelay starts at $99 - busy months don't punish you.
A fraction of a receptionist
A full-time hire runs $35,000-$50,000 a year and works 40 hours a week. ClientRelay handles unlimited concurrent calls and never takes a sick day.
Books straight into your calendar
Live Google Calendar availability, instant confirmations, and no back-and-forth scheduling. The appointment exists before the call ends.
Qualified leads, not messages
Traditional answering services hand you a name and a number. You get budget, authority, need, and timeline - so you know which lead to chase first.
Live in 5 minutes, not 5 days
Connect your business profile, link Google Calendar, forward your number. Your receptionist starts answering on the same call you set it up.
Trusted by service businesses
“I was skeptical about AI answering our phones, but callers can't tell the difference. It's like having a full-time receptionist for a fraction of the cost.”

Get Started
See it answer a call from your HVAC business
A 15-minute personalized demo. We configure it around your trade, your calendar, and the calls you're actually missing.
Common questions
Yes. You configure emergency keywords like 'no heat,' 'gas smell,' or 'carbon monoxide.' When the AI detects these, it flags the call as urgent, takes the caller's details immediately, and texts you an alert - all within seconds.
During setup, you tell the AI your service area, the types of jobs you take, your pricing ranges, and your availability. It uses this to qualify callers and only books appointments you can actually serve.
The AI is trained on your business knowledge base - FAQs, service descriptions, and common questions. If a question truly goes beyond what it knows, it takes a detailed message with the caller's info and flags it for your team to follow up.
A full-time receptionist costs $35,000-$50,000/year, works 40 hours a week, and still misses after-hours calls. ClientRelay.AI starts at $99/month, works 24/7/365, and never calls in sick. Most HVAC companies see ROI within the first week.
