BuildStack is the trained front desk for trades businesses. We text back missed calls, reply to inquiries, and answer DMs across SMS, email, and social — in your voice, with your prices, on your number. Voice agent comes online when your stack has earned it.
Most AI receptionists go live on day one and hope. We don't. BuildStack starts in text, learns your business from real customers across two to four weeks, then earns the right to pick up the phone. By the time the voice agent answers a call, it's already handled hundreds of conversations of yours.
Texts back every missed call. Learns your services, prices, service area, the way you talk to customers.
Replies to new inquiries. Warms a dedicated sending domain so messages actually land in the inbox, not in spam.
Answers Facebook and Instagram DMs. Closes the channel gaps where younger customers actually message you.
Picks up live on your business number. Only after the stack has proven it knows the job. You decide when it goes live.
Setup takes 2–4 weeks because we do it right. Competitors who promise 48-hour go-live are turning on a stock bot. That's not what your customers deserve.
We looked at 200 trades businesses that kept losing jobs they should have won. Great reviews. Fair prices. Quality work. The competitors beating them averaged 3.9 stars on Google. They just answered first.
You're under a sink. The phone rings. You can't answer right now.
BuildStack texts back in your voice.
“Hi — sorry I missed you. What's going on?”
Customer describes the issue. Quoted from your price book.
“Can someone come today?”
Job locked at 4:30 PM. You get a notification. The job is yours.
Each agent runs continuously on your number, in your voice, with your prices. They share one customer record across channels and never drop a thread.
Texts back every missed call in under 60 seconds. Qualifies the lead, answers the FAQ, books the appointment — all while you're under a sink.
Turns every after-hours inquiry into a booked job by morning. Replies to new leads, sends quotes, follows up so you don't have to.
Answers Facebook and Instagram DMs while you're on the job. Converts comments and DMs into booked appointments.
Live voice on your business number. Activates after your text and email agents have proven they know the job. Comes online at week four or later — you decide when.
One booked job a month covers the year. Anything beyond that is yours.
Three steps, weeks not minutes. Done properly, by people who understand trades businesses — not a self-serve form and a stock bot.
We get on a call. Learn your services, your pricing, your service area, how you actually talk to customers. We build a knowledge base — your business in BuildStack's hands.
Your SMS agent goes live first and starts learning from real customers. Email follows once your sending domain is warmed. Social comes next. Voice unlocks when the stack has earned it.
Every missed call gets a reply in your voice. Qualified leads land in your inbox ready to book. The jobs you used to lose to silence — those are yours now.
The phone he didn't hear“He lost a $4,000 emergency job not because his work was bad — but because he was under a sink when the phone rang. By the time he surfaced, the job was gone. That's the last time that should happen to anyone.”
“Had a water heater emergency come in at 9pm on a Tuesday. I was putting my kids to bed. BuildStack texted them back, got the address, and I had the job booked before I even saw the missed call.”
“I used to check my phone between every job. Now I just work. BuildStack handles the back-and-forth and I get a notification when someone's ready to book.”
“We were sending every call to voicemail after 5pm. Turns out that's when half our leads were coming in. First month with BuildStack we picked up 11 jobs we would've missed.”
“My wife was answering our business line on weekends. That was the real cost — not the money, the stress. BuildStack took that off her plate completely.”
“A customer told me they went with us because we were the only company that responded to their Facebook message the same day. That was BuildStack, not me. I didn't even see it until Monday.”
“I was skeptical about AI answering for my business. But the texts sound like me — they trained it on how I actually talk. Booked more jobs in two months than I did all last quarter.”
Real testimonials with photos and Google review links coming as customers go live.
A part-time receptionist costs over $36,000 a year and only works business hours. BuildStack works every hour of every day, across every channel, for a fraction of the price.
Make sure that's always you.
