Fall rush,
fully booked.
An AI receptionist for chimney sweeps is a virtual receptionist that answers calls about sweeping, inspections, chimney caps and leaks, and books each visit on your calendar. Most of the year is steady. Then the first cold week of fall arrives and everyone wants a sweep before they light the first fire. The assistant picks up in about 0.3 seconds, day and night, in 32 languages, and on Standard it takes three calls at once. It asks whether the caller burns wood or gas, how long since the last sweep, and whether water or animals are getting in. Water stains by the fireplace are noted in the summary, and callers can text photos. Returning customers are greeted by name with the gist of last year’s visit. From $249 a month, and the five-day pilot is free with no credit card.

Chimney Sweeps:
questions and answers.
It marks the call urgent and rings your on-call person when the caller asks. Your script can also tell callers to contact emergency services.
It gives a range from the prices you set and books a visit to measure the flue.
Yes. It takes the property address and the agent’s details and books the slot into your calendar.
It does not make outbound calls. On Standard it can send automated SMS follow-ups after calls with the wording you approve.
It does the job of both: it answers your business calls, takes messages and books appointments. A virtual receptionist is usually a person working remotely, and an answering service usually takes messages. Voxgard is AI: it picks up in about 0.3 seconds, day and night, and books straight into your calendar.
