Stop calling every lead. Let AI do the initial qualifying via text. Your AI agent asks the right questions, captures job details, flags hot prospects, and hands you only the leads worth your time. You spend less time qualifying, more time closing.

Full Text Conversation Job Details Captured Hot Leads Flagged Zero Manual Screening

The Qualifying Problem

Every inbound lead looks hot until you call them. Then you spend 10 minutes on the phone only to find out they got three quotes already, their budget is half what you charge, or they're shopping for a different service entirely. You didn't learn anything useful until you were halfway through the conversation. By then, your time is spent.

Meanwhile, the lead who would have booked today is waiting. Your time is finite. Your margins depend on calling the right leads first, not every lead.

How AI Text Screening Works

When a lead comes in (from your website, a call, or any source), our AI starts a text conversation with them. Not a chatbot — a real conversational AI that asks natural questions and understands the answers. It asks: What's the job? When do you need it done? Have you gotten other quotes? What's your budget ballpark?

The lead texts back naturally, like texting a friend. The AI listens, learns, and escalates as needed. If the job is urgent or the lead is hot, the AI flags it immediately and notifies you in real-time. If it's a tire-kicker, you find out via text before you dial.

What You Get

For every lead, you get: their job type, urgency level, budget range, timeline, and any special notes. You also get an AI assessment: is this a hot lead, warm, or long-term? You look at your dashboard, see which leads are flagged hot, and call those first. The leads that are warm can wait. The cold ones you can pass on.

Speed & Conversion

The AI screens leads while you're on jobs. By the time you finish your current call, the next three leads are already screened and ranked. You call the hottest one first. Higher close rate. Less wasted qualifying time. Leads feel heard (someone engaged them within minutes), so they wait for your callback instead of shopping competitors.

Job Detail Capture

The AI captures structured data: square footage, service type, location, timeline, and budget. All of it goes into your CRM. When you call, you already know what they need. The conversation moves straight to "let's schedule" instead of "tell me more."

⚠ Signs You Need This

You spend 30+ minutes a day qualifying bad leads on the phone
Most calls you make are just fact-gathering with tire-kickers
You don't know which leads are urgent until you call them
Your close rate suffers because you're calling everyone equally
You have no way to prioritize leads by urgency or quality
Leads call back someone else because you took too long to call

Data Structure

Every lead gets tagged with job type, urgency, budget range, and timeline. You can sort by any of these in your dashboard. Call urgent jobs first. Work through warm leads as time allows. Archive cold ones for follow-up later.

AI Text Screening FAQ

Does the AI ever misunderstand or ask the wrong questions?
Modern AI is remarkably accurate at understanding context from text. It asks follow-up questions if an answer is unclear, just like a human would. If the AI gets stuck, it escalates to you with a transcript. Over time, the AI learns your specific business and asks smarter questions.
Do customers find it annoying to text with an AI?
Most don't. A customer who just submitted a form or called your business is already in "answer questions" mode. Texting is fast and informal. They text back while doing other things. Many prefer it to a phone call. Your conversion depends on whether the AI qualifies them well, not on whether they like texting.
Can I customize the AI's questions?
Yes. We train the AI on your specific needs before deployment. You tell us what qualifies a hot lead in your industry — what questions matter and what answers flag urgency. The AI adapts to your scoring criteria.
What if a lead prefers to call?
The AI text message includes your callback number. If they prefer calling, they can call you directly. Most will text back, but the option is always there. This gives leads choice, which builds trust.
How fast does the AI respond?
Within seconds. Leads see the AI's next message almost instantly. Conversations feel natural and real-time. The AI doesn't go silent or delay, which keeps leads engaged and waiting for your callback instead of calling competitors.
Does this integrate with my CRM?
We currently integrate with Google Sheets. All qualification data, assessments, and transcripts flow there automatically. Other CRM integrations are possible on a case-by-case basis, but we'll need to discuss your system during a consultation to confirm compatibility.
