BILINGUAL ON EVERY CALL

Your phone is your business.

Every missed call is a missed job, and your competitors are one search result away. But staffing 24/7 in-house is expensive, voicemail loses jobs, and your old answering service still feels like dial-up.

Swiftlee gives home service operators a real receptionist for less than the cost of voicemail.

How we handle your calls

Built for the way your phone actually rings.

We learn the difference between an emergency and a quote request. We follow your on-call rotation. We speak your customers' language — literally.

🚨

Emergency vs. routine triage

Burst pipe at midnight? We dispatch on-call immediately. Quote request? We book it for the morning. You decide what counts as urgent — we follow it perfectly.

📞

Real on-call dispatch

We follow your on-call rotation. If the first tech doesn't pick up in 5 minutes, we try the next one. Customers never wait.

🌐

Bilingual answering

Your Spanish-speaking customers stop hanging up on voicemail. Same warmth, same script, same outcome — in either language.

📅

Direct scheduling integration

Books straight into Jobber, ServiceTitan, or HousecallPro. No more re-keying. Webhook delivery for everything else.

FAQ

Home Services answering, answered.

Can Swiftlee handle after-hours emergency calls for my home services business?

Yes. Swiftlee answers 24/7, including nights, weekends, and holidays. You set the rules for what counts as an emergency — for example, a water leak after hours — and we triage the call, capture the address and severity, and dispatch your on-call tech per your escalation list. Routine calls are logged for the morning.

Will the receptionist answer in both English and Spanish?

Yes. Every Swiftlee receptionist — AI and live — is bilingual. Calls start in English and switch to Spanish the moment a caller prefers it, so Spanish-speaking customers get the same professional answer.

Can you book jobs and send appointment details to my team?

Yes. We follow your intake script to capture the job details, book into your calendar where connected, and deliver a message by email and SMS in real time. A recording, transcript, and structured summary land in your portal.

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. You forward your existing business line to the Swiftlee number we provision — it takes about two minutes with any carrier. You can also get a new local or toll-free number if you prefer.
