Missed-call safety net for small trades
Your phone rings first. Riley only answers when you can't.
Riley is a missed-call safety net for small trades — your business phone rings first, and Riley only picks up the calls you don't answer. She captures what the caller needs and texts the job details straight to your cell, so the customer doesn't call the next contractor on Google.

























Not a dashboard. Not a replacement phone system.
People working with their hands don't want “AI software” or another login to check at 8 p.m. They want more jobs, fewer missed opportunities, and less time on a computer. With Riley, your phone always rings first. Only when you don't answer does conditional call forwarding (*71 on Verizon, **61* on AT&T/T-Mobile) send that missed call to Riley's behind-the-scenes number.
Riley answers in your business's name, gathers what the caller needs without guessing prices or availability, and sends you a short, fast text message in seconds. Reply CALL to call the customer right back, or reply YES [NAME] / NO [NAME] to approve or decline an appointment request. Everything is included for $149.99/month.
How it beats voicemail and per-minute answering services
First-time callers from Google rarely leave a voicemail—they hang up and call the next listing. And traditional call-center answering services charge by the minute, read from stiff scripts, and punish you when storm or weekend calls spike. Riley is one predictable price ($149.99/month), never guesses what she doesn't know, and offers a real human backup when available if a caller asks for a person.
