Oshkosh calls,
answered through the winter.
For an Oshkosh business, Voxgard is an AI receptionist that picks up the 920 line in about 0.3 seconds, any hour of the day, and turns the call into a booked appointment. On the west shore of Lake Winnebago, winter is the season that fills a service company’s phone: furnaces that stop at 3 a.m., pipes that freeze in an outside wall, ice dams over the gutters. Summer has its own rush, with EAA AirVenture bringing crowds in late July. The AI answers from your scripts and price list, asks the caller’s ZIP and street to check your service area, and writes the visit into Google Calendar or Calendly. You get a recording, a transcript and a short summary of each call. It speaks 32 languages on calls, including Spanish. Keep your number by forwarding it or porting it. Plans start at $249 a month, and you can run a free five-day pilot on real calls without a credit card.

What Oshkosh means
for your phone line.
Lake Winnebago winters
Cold air off the lake and long stretches below freezing make heating and frozen pipe calls the steadiest work from November through March.
AirVenture week
The EAA fly-in each July fills Oshkosh with visitors, campers and pilots, and hotels, restaurants and repair shops near Wittman airport see their phones light up.
A manufacturing town
Oshkosh builds trucks and machinery, and a lot of callers work shifts. They call at 6 a.m. or after a late shift, when most offices are closed.
HVAC and plumbing
calls in Oshkosh.
HVAC calls in Oshkosh
A furnace that fails in January in Winnebago County cannot wait for Monday, and many calls come in overnight. Voxgard answers, takes the address and what the furnace is doing, marks the call urgent, and rings your on-call tech if the caller asks for a person. In spring it books the AC tune-ups your crew schedules ahead of summer. More for the trade.
Plumbing calls in Oshkosh
Frozen pipes in exterior walls and crawl spaces are a standard winter call, and older homes near downtown and the river add water heater and drain jobs year round. The AI checks the ZIP and street, books the visit, and texts the caller a confirmation from your number. More for the trade.

questions and answers.
Yes. Forward your 920 line or port it. The number on your truck and your listing stays the same.
If those towns fall inside the range you set from your base locations, it books them. If an address is outside the range, it says so and takes a message.
The AI answers, records the details and flags the call as urgent in the summary. If the caller asks for the on-call tech, it rings that person, and if nobody picks up, the team gets a text with the number, summary and recording link.
Standard answers up to three calls at the same moment, and Enterprise has no limit. Basic takes one call at a time.
Forward your number or port it; nothing to install. Every plan starts with a free five-day pilot on your real calls, no credit card. How the pilot works.
