How Your Schedule Gets Updated
There is no field-service platform you can connect today. That sounds like a bigger limitation than it is — most crews we work with start without one, and the assistant still answers every call.
Two ways to run it:
- Google Calendar. Connect Google Calendar and your assistant checks your availability and puts the job straight on the calendar. If your schedule already lives in a calendar, this is the closest thing to full automation available now.
- No integration at all. The assistant answers, collects the address, the problem and a callback number, and logs it in your call log and Call Backs queue, with an email alert (or a text with the SMS add-on). You schedule the job. This is how most small crews start, and it still means you stop losing calls while you are on a roof or under a sink.
Tell us what you run on — contact support — and we'll add it to the list we prioritise.
