Whether it’s a broken furnace at 2am or a routine inquiry during lunch, your AI receptionist picks up on the first ring — every time, every day, including holidays.
Takes Detailed Messages
Captures the caller’s name, phone number, and reason for calling. Messages are delivered to your inbox or phone instantly — nothing slips through the cracks.
Routes Urgent Calls
Emergencies are detected and transferred to on-call staff immediately. Routine calls are handled by the AI so your team can focus on the work that matters.
AI Agent for HVAC Companies
More than a receptionist — your AI agent actively helps homeowners by booking appointments, answering detailed business questions, and connecting to your existing tools.

Connects directly to your calendar and books, reschedules, or cancels appointments in real time. Homeowners get confirmed times without any back-and-forth.
Handles Chat & WhatsApp
Your AI agent manages web chat and WhatsApp messages with the same intelligence as phone calls. Homeowners choose the channel they prefer.
Connects to Your Tools
Integrates with your CRM, scheduling software, and 40+ business tools. Information flows automatically — no manual data entry required.
The Missed Call Problem in HVAC
When a homeowner's AC breaks at 2am or their furnace dies on a Saturday, they call the first company they find. If you don't answer, they call the next one.
How Dash handles it — without pretending to be your firm
Dash doesn't pretend to be in your line of work. There is no industry script baked in — no "plumber mode," no "architect mode." That's the point.
You spend ~10 minutes in the onboarding wizard telling Dash about your business: what you offer, what you charge for a consult, what makes you different, what you do not take on, and — most importantly — the questions you want asked on every call.
Then Dash answers the phone, asks your questions, captures your intake fields, books on your calendar, and texts the caller a confirmation with your business details.
Why the intake questions matter more than the script
Every firm qualifies leads differently.
A home-services business needs to know the property address, urgency, and whether it's a repeat customer. A professional services firm needs to know project scope, timeline, and budget posture. A retail business needs to know what the caller wants and whether they need delivery or pickup.
Most AI receptionists hardcode a generic intake questionnaire ("name, number, reason for calling"). Dash asks the questions you write. If you change them next week, Dash asks the new ones starting on the next call — no retraining, no support ticket.
The differentiator isn't "we have AI." The differentiator is whose questions the AI asks.
What you set up in the wizard (about 10 minutes)
Bounded by what the onboarding wizard actually captures. No flowcharts, no decision trees, no developer.
-
1
Your firm's identity
Company name, the name your AI answers to, your industry, your service area, and your timezone.
-
2
Your services and hours
List what you actually do, one per line, and when you're open. Dash never books outside those hours.
-
3
Your pricing posture
Pick one of four: quote exact prices, give general ranges, say it varies and offer a follow-up, or don't discuss pricing. If you pick exact or ranges, you fill in the numbers.
-
4
Your FAQs
The questions every caller asks you, with the answers you'd want a receptionist to give. Add as many as you want.
-
5
Your qualifying questions
The intake list Dash asks on every new-lead call. Project type, budget posture, timeline, scope, whatever you need to triage. Edit anytime; live on the next call.
-
6
Your tone
Pick from formal, friendly, casual, fun, witty, or professional. Plus a free-text "agent role / purpose" line to describe what Dash is there to do.
-
7
Your never-promise list
Things Dash must not commit to on a call. Six preset rules (price, callback time, discounts, availability, etc.) plus any custom rules you write.
-
8
Your complaint posture
When a caller is upset, pick take a detailed message, transfer to a manager, or try to resolve directly. Plus an optional "what can we offer them?" line.
-
9
Your key responsibilities
Multi-select which call behaviors Dash is allowed to do: book appointments, take messages, transfer calls, send follow-up texts, qualify leads, handle after-hours calls, answer questions, provide quotes. Turn one off and Dash won't attempt it on a call.
Edit anytime — changes apply on the next call.
Live Agent Takeover
Your AI handles every conversation until you're ready to step in. Take over any chat or WhatsApp thread in real time from the FONE app.
Web Chat Takeover
A homeowner asks about pricing for a full system replacement on your website. Your AI collects the details, but when they want to negotiate or discuss financing, you step in with one tap.
WhatsApp Takeover
A property manager messages about multiple units needing service. Your AI handles the intake, but when the job scope gets complex, you jump in to coordinate directly.
Seamless Handoff
When you're done, release the conversation and your AI picks up right where you left off. Get your client the right information at the right time.
AI when you're away. You when it matters.
Your AI handles routine scheduling and inquiries. But when a commercial client needs a custom quote or a homeowner wants to discuss a major installation, you're one tap away.
WhatsApp Built In
Homeowners message about broken AC, furnace issues, and emergency repairs on WhatsApp — and your AI responds instantly with answers, appointment booking, and dispatch coordination.
Live transfers, right inside WhatsApp. When a customer asks to speak with someone specific — Sales, Support, or a team member by name — the AI transfers the conversation instantly. The customer stays in the same WhatsApp thread while the new team member's AI assistant picks up. No links, no new chats, no friction.
Meet your customers where they already are. One WhatsApp number for Reception, Sales, Support, and every team member.
