⚡ AI receptionist for electricians

A burning smell at the panel shouldn't reach an answering machine.

Electrical calls split hard between genuine hazards and price shoppers, and they all sound the same on voicemail. GoodLine answers every one, asks the questions that separate them, and gets the real work on your calendar.

GoodLineThanks for calling *Business Name*. What can I help you with?

CallerHalf my house just lost power and there's a smell like burning plastic near the breaker box.

GoodLineThat one I'm treating as urgent. Don't reset the breaker — can you keep people away from the panel? I'm paging the on-call electrician now.

CallerOkay. We're at 88 Harrison Ave, upstairs unit.

URGENT — possible panel fault. Burning plastic smell, half the house dead, 88 Harrison Ave upstairs. Told them not to reset. Paged you at 7:32 PM.

Why electricians lose calls

Three reasons your phone rings out

You can't answer with your hands in a panel

Live work demands both hands and full attention. Every call that comes in while you're in a panel goes unanswered, and electrical customers don't wait.

Hazard calls and tyre-kickers sound identical

"Can you come look at something" could be a scorched breaker or someone collecting a third quote on a ceiling fan. You can't tell from a missed-call notification.

Quote requests eat the whole day

Panel upgrades, EV chargers, whole-home rewires — all worth real money, all needing twenty minutes of questions before they're worth a site visit.

The script

What it asks before anything gets booked

Built from how a electrical contractor actually triages a call — not a generic "name and number" form. You approve every question and every rule before it goes live.

Qualifying questions

Is there any smoke, heat, or burning smell?
Is it one circuit, half the house, or everything?
Has a breaker tripped, and does it reset?
Is this a panel, a circuit, or a new install?
Residential or commercial, and what's the age of the panel?

Rings your cell immediately

Exposed or arcing conductors within reach
Total power loss to a medical device or commercial freezer

How it works

Three steps. You keep your number.

Forward the calls you miss

One short code dialled on your phone sends busy, no-answer, and unreachable calls to GoodLine instead of voicemail. Your number and caller ID don't change.

About 2 minutes

We build your script

A 20-minute call covers your service area, hours, pricing rules, what counts as an emergency, and where jobs get booked. You listen to test calls and tell us what to change.

Done for you

It answers around the clock

Every missed call gets picked up, triaged, and booked — with a text summary, recording, and transcript sent to you, and emergencies escalated to your cell.

Questions

What electricians ask us

Will it tell someone to reset a breaker?

Not unless you want it to. By default it gives no diagnostic or safety instructions beyond the ones you write into the script — the example above tells the caller to leave the panel alone, because that's what most electricians want said. Anything you'd rather it never say, we put on a do-not-say list.

How does it handle quote requests?

It asks your qualifying questions — panel size and age, service amperage, whether permits are involved, timeline, whether they've had other quotes — and hands you a written summary. You decide whether it's worth a site visit before you spend a drive on it.

Can it screen out the third-quote shoppers?

It can ask directly and record the answer, and it can apply rules you set — a minimum job size, a service area, a diagnostic fee that filters people out. It won't be rude about it; it just stops those calls from landing on your cell at dinner.

What about EV charger and solar enquiries?

Those are usually your best leads and your longest calls, so it collects what you'd otherwise spend ten minutes gathering: panel capacity, meter location, vehicle or system, parking arrangement, and whether they own the property.

More general questions — pricing, setup, contracts — are answered on the main FAQ.
