Solo operators and small service crews lose customers because they cannot answer incoming phone calls while working in the field, and existing solutions like voicemail or answering services are unreliable or cost-prohibitive.

Voicemail leads to lost calls; automated text-back setups feel gimmicky; answering services are expensive and prone to errors in capturing details.
