Why calls matter for solar installers
Solar leads are expensive and short-lived. A homeowner who fills in a quote form or calls from an ad is usually comparing several installers that week, and the consultant who could answer is on a roof or in someone's kitchen. Existing customers call the same number about a monitoring alert or an inspection date.
An AI receptionist answers every call, asks the questions that decide whether a home is a fit, books the site assessment on your consultant's calendar, and sends service calls from existing customers to the right team with the system details.

What a call sounds like
An illustrative example of a typical call. Your receptionist follows your own rules, services, and wording.
What the AI receptionist asks
Urgent calls go straight to a person
A burning smell, smoke, or scorch marks at the inverter, panels, or battery
The caller is told to keep away from the equipment and to call 911 if there is smoke or fire. Your service lead is alerted immediately.
A roof leak around the mounting points
Logged as an urgent service ticket with photos and sent to your service team the same day.
Storm or tree damage to panels or wiring
The caller is told not to touch damaged panels or cables, and the job goes to the service team as a priority.
A system that has stopped producing
Booked as a service call with the monitoring details. It is not treated as an emergency unless there is a safety sign.

FAQs
Can an AI receptionist qualify solar leads?
Yes. It asks about ownership, the roof, shading, the electric bill, and the utility, then books qualified homes and records the rest for follow-up.
Can it call back leads from web forms and ads?
Yes, when the lead has given the consent the TCPA requires. It calls within minutes, qualifies the home, and books the assessment.
Does it work with Salesforce, HubSpot, or GoHighLevel?
We connect through the vendor's API or a workflow tool, depending on your plan and the vendor's API access. We confirm what is possible before quoting.
Will it quote prices or savings?
It gives only the wording you approve, such as a starting price range, and books an assessment for an exact figure. It does not estimate savings.
Can it handle service calls from existing customers?
Yes. It records the monitoring details and the problem, opens a service ticket, and escalates anything that looks like a safety issue.
Can it answer in Spanish?
Yes. Bilingual English and Spanish call flows are available.
