You're Losing Jobs Every Day.

Home service businesses lose thousands in revenue to missed calls and after-hours silence.

🔧

On the Job, Off the Phone

When your crew is on a roof or under a sink, no one's answering the phone. Every missed call is a job your competitor books instead.

🌙

After-Hours Blackout

Emergency calls come in at 9PM, on weekends, and on holidays. When your lines shut down, customers call the next company on Google.

💸

Wasted Ad Spend

You're paying for Google Ads and HomeStars leads, but when those calls go unanswered, you funded your competitor's next booking.

📋

Scheduling Chaos

Juggling callbacks, estimates, and dispatch between jobs leads to double bookings, missed follow-ups, and lost revenue.

"Before Linea, our phone lines shut down at 9 p.m., which meant we were turning away a lot of profitable emergency work. With Linea handling after-hours calls, we're effectively open 24/7 and can compete with the big national brands on emergency response without the massive overhead of night staff. The best part is our trucks now start every morning with a full schedule of jobs booked overnight." — Raphie K, Owner · Fleet of 5+ Trucks

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Linea's AI receptionist service.

About Linea

An AI receptionist is a voice-based artificial intelligence that answers phone calls for your business 24/7. It handles tasks like booking appointments, capturing lead information, routing calls to the right department, and answering common questions — just like a human receptionist, but without hold times, sick days, or overtime costs.

Linea connects to your existing business phone line and answers calls with a natural, human-like voice. It captures caller details, books appointments directly into your scheduling software (like JaneApp, Jobber, or Clio), sends you instant call summaries, and routes urgent calls to the right person. Setup takes less than 24 hours.

Linea can be fully set up and answering calls for your business within 24 hours. We custom-train the AI on your specific business, services, and scheduling workflows so it handles calls the way you want from day one.

AI vs. Human Receptionist

Hiring a full-time receptionist costs $35,000–$55,000/year in salary alone — before payroll taxes, benefits, vacation, sick days, and training time. Then there's turnover: the average receptionist stays 1–2 years, meaning you're constantly rehiring and retraining. Linea costs a fraction of that, is available 24/7, never calls in sick, never takes vacation, and handles every call the same way every time.

Beyond salary, in-house receptionists come with: onboarding and training (weeks of your time), health benefits, statutory holidays, performance management, coverage during absences, and inconsistent outcomes — a receptionist who's having a bad day may come across as cold or distracted to a caller. With Linea, every caller gets the same professional, friendly experience regardless of the time or day.

No. A human receptionist can handle one call at a time — if two calls come in simultaneously, one goes to voicemail. Linea handles 100+ simultaneous calls, so no lead ever slips through during a busy period, after hours, or on weekends.

AI vs. Outsourced Services

Outsourced receptionist services charge per-minute or per-call, and costs balloon quickly as your volume grows. Their agents juggle dozens of other businesses at the same time, have limited knowledge of your specific services, and deliver inconsistent experiences. Linea is trained specifically on your business, always available, and costs stay predictable — no per-minute surprises.

Some do, but most are still human-staffed services with a thin layer of AI routing. Linea is purpose-built AI from the ground up — it learns your business, your tone, and your workflows. It doesn't hand off to a human agent who may not know your business, and it doesn't charge you more when call volume spikes.

Getting Started

Immediately. Most clients have their personalized AI live and answering calls within 24 hours of onboarding. There's no long implementation timeline — we configure Linea to your business, connect it to your phone line and scheduling software, and you're live.

Linea is trained on your specific services and FAQs, so it handles the vast majority of calls without issue. For anything outside its scope, it can collect the caller's details and flag it for a callback from your team — no caller is ever left without a response.

Features & Commitment

Yes. Unlike a human receptionist who can only handle one call at a time, Linea can manage over 100 simultaneous calls. This means no caller ever gets a busy signal or is placed on hold, even during peak hours.

Linea supports over 20 languages, allowing it to communicate naturally with callers in their preferred language. This is especially valuable for businesses serving diverse communities across Canada and the United States.

Yes. Linea works with your existing business phone number — callers won't notice anything has changed. It also integrates directly with the scheduling and practice management tools you already use, including JaneApp, Jobber, Clio, QuickBooks, Calendly, and Google Calendar.

Linea is always on. Whether it's 11pm on a Sunday or a statutory holiday, Linea answers every call, books appointments, and captures leads — so you never miss business outside of office hours.

Yes. All call data is encrypted and handled with strict privacy protocols. Customer information is never stored improperly or shared outside your approved systems. Every call is managed with enterprise-grade security standards.

No long-term contracts. Linea is offered on a monthly subscription so you can scale up, down, or cancel as your business needs change. We're confident you'll see the value immediately — which is why we don't lock you in.
