The Problem

Mid-Job, Mid-Cut,
Mid-Losing the Lead

Contractors physically cannot stop to respond to an inquiry on a job site. That's not a failure — it's the nature of the work. But a slow response can cost you real work.

🔇
Without BOOJEE
2:14pm — Homeowner asks about a kitchen remodel
You're in the middle of a tile installation. A web-form inquiry or text comes in, and you can't get to it for hours. By the time you do, the homeowner has already lined up other estimates. Yours isn't one of them — they went with whoever responded first.
✅
With BOOJEE AI Front Desk
2:14pm — Homeowner asks about a kitchen remodel
Your AI front desk replies instantly over web chat or text. "Thanks for reaching out to [Your Company]. What kind of work are you looking to get done?" Kitchen remodel, mid-September timeline, full gut on a 200 sq ft space. Estimate request captured. You get a text with the full project brief while you keep laying tile.
Speed wins the job — homeowners go with whoever responds first

Speed is your single biggest competitive advantage. Your AI front desk makes sure you respond first — even when you're 40 feet up on scaffolding.

How It Works

Trained on How
Contractors Actually Work

Not a generic chatbot. An AI built around real contractor conversations — project types, timelines, budgets, and the difference between a serious project and a tire-kicker.

1
Every web-chat and text answered instantly
A chat widget on your site and an SMS lead line route inquiries to the BOOJEE AI front desk. No app to install for you. The AI replies right away — while you're on the job, driving between sites, or at the lumber yard. Homeowners get an instant response instead of silence.
Web chat + SMS
2
AI asks: "What kind of work are you looking to get done?"
Open-ended first question that gets the homeowner talking. Kitchen, bathroom, deck, basement, addition, repair — the AI reads the project type and adapts the conversation. Emergency repair inquiries are immediately flagged and handled with urgency. Routine estimate requests are qualified methodically.
Trained on your trade specialties
3
Captures project scope, timeline, and budget signal
The AI collects project address, rough scope, desired timeline, and a budget-qualifying question phrased naturally — filtering out prospects who can't afford your work without alienating the ones who can. Every detail lands in your lead notification so you walk into the estimate conversation already prepared.
Budget qualifier included
4
Captures the estimate request and scheduling details
The AI gathers the homeowner's preferred timing for an estimate and their contact details, then hands them off to you to confirm. On the Pro and Done-For-You tiers we can wire in your scheduling tool so estimate requests flow into your calendar. No chasing callbacks.
Scheduling integration on Pro
5
Full lead brief hits your phone instantly
The moment the conversation ends, you receive a formatted text: name, phone, project address, project type, scope notes, timeline, and requested estimate time. Show up to that estimate already knowing their project. Close at a higher rate because you came prepared.
Instant lead notification

Built for Contractors

Every Feature Your
Business Actually Needs

Built around the real challenges contractors face — job site noise, emergency calls, seasonal surges, and tire-kicker calls that waste your time.

🚨
Emergency Inquiry Handling
Burst pipe. Broken window. Roof damage after a storm. The AI identifies emergency language immediately, escalates the conversation with urgency, and sends you an urgent priority alert so you can call back right away.
🔨
Trade-Specific Qualification
You don't do every kind of job. The AI is trained on your specific trade specialties during setup — kitchen, bathroom, decks, additions, handyman repairs, HVAC. It captures the right details for your type of work and filters out project types you don't handle.
💰
Tire-Kicker Filter
The AI includes a natural budget-qualifying step that filters callers who can't afford your minimum project size — without sounding transactional or off-putting. You get estimate calls with qualified prospects, not a parade of $200 repair requests on a $5,000 minimum book.
📍
Service Area Gating
Your AI knows your territory. Out-of-area callers get a polite decline and referral. In-area leads get the full qualification and booking flow. Stop wasting estimate trips 60 miles outside your zone for jobs you'd never take anyway.
📋
Detailed Project Briefing
Every lead notification includes the project address, scope, materials mentioned, timeline expectations, and any special circumstances the prospect mentioned. You walk into every estimate already knowing more than the contractor who didn't capture the lead first.
📞
Priority Callback Routing
For urgent or high-value inquiries, the AI captures everything and routes it to you as a priority callback with full context, so the most important leads jump the queue. Live voice answering can be added on request as part of a Done-For-You build.

Emergency Handling

When a Homeowner Has an Emergency,
They Want to Reach Someone. Now.

Emergency repair inquiries are high-urgency and high-value. A homeowner with a burst pipe or broken window is ready to hire immediately — no estimate needed, no budget conversation. They need someone now. Make sure that's you.

Emergency Inquiry Protocol
Your AI Identifies Emergency Language Instantly
Words like "burst," "flooding," "broken," "emergency," "can't wait" trigger an immediate escalation mode. The AI shortens the qualification flow, gets the address and best contact number, and sends you an urgent priority alert that jumps the queue ahead of normal leads.
Burst Pipe / Water Damage
AI identifies urgency, gets the address, sends you an immediate priority text. You call back right away — on an emergency lead a competitor may never have heard about.
Broken Window / Storm Damage
Post-storm surges bring a wave of high-urgency repair inquiries. The AI handles many chat and text conversations at once with no added overhead, routing every emergency to you with full context.
HVAC Emergency
Heater out in January. AC out in July. Emergency flag triggers immediate escalation so you're calling back quickly instead of finding out at 6pm that you missed it.
Roof Leak
Rain in the forecast, ceiling dripping. Homeowner needs someone today. Your AI captures the urgency, gathers their preferred timing for a walk-through, and texts you everything you need to show up ready.

Seasonal Surge Coverage

Peak Season Calls. Zero Extra Overhead.

Your busiest seasons are also the hardest to answer phones. The AI handles volume spikes without adding a single dollar in staffing cost.

🌸
Spring Remodel Rush
Tax refunds land, weather breaks, and every homeowner's renovation wish list comes alive. Spring is your biggest lead surge. Don't miss it.
☀️
Summer Outdoor Build Season
Decks, patios, additions, exterior work. Inquiries come in while you're sweating on a site. The AI replies while you keep building.
🍂
Fall Winterization
Insulation, windows, weatherproofing, furnace checks. Homeowners scramble to button up before winter. Be the first one they reach.
⛈️
Post-Storm Surge
One storm can generate a flood of inquiries in a day. The AI handles many chat and text conversations at once. You get the leads while competitors let messages pile up unanswered.

Common Question

"My clients want to talk to
a real contractor, not a robot."

Understood — and they will, at the estimate. What they want right now, in the moment they reach out, is a fast reply that starts solving their problem. The AI delivers exactly that over web chat and text. Here's what actually matters to a homeowner contacting a contractor:

  • Someone responded. The alternative is a message that sits unanswered for hours. Homeowners move on to the next contractor on the list.
  • Their project was understood. The AI knows your trade and asks the right questions, so the homeowner feels heard and their project is captured accurately.
  • An estimate was requested. The conversation accomplished the thing that matters — getting you in front of the homeowner to close the job.
  • Complex situations are escalated. If a prospect has something beyond the AI's scope, it captures the details and routes it to you as a priority callback. Nothing gets dropped.

Questions

Everything You Want
to Know First

Does it handle emergency repair inquiries?
Yes — and this is one of its highest-value use cases. Emergency language ("burst pipe," "flooding," "broken," "emergency," "can't wait") triggers immediate escalation. The AI shortens qualification, gets the address and contact info, and sends you an urgent priority alert so you can call the homeowner back right away.
Can it filter tire-kicker calls?
Yes. The AI includes a natural budget-qualifying step in the conversation. You set your minimum project size during setup, and the AI is trained to politely gather budget signals from callers. Leads that clearly don't match your minimum are noted as such in your alert, so you can triage your callbacks accordingly.
What project types can it handle?
The AI is configured around your specific trade during setup. Kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, deck builds, basement finishing, HVAC, plumbing repairs, handyman work — you define your scope. The AI captures the right project details for your trade type and skips the questions that don't apply to your work.
What about the spring remodel rush and post-storm surges?
That's exactly what the AI is built for. During high-volume periods, it handles many chat and text conversations at the same time. No missed opportunities, no overwhelmed office staff. Every surge inquiry becomes a captured lead — regardless of how many come in at once.
Does it work with my existing phone number and website?
Yes. You keep your existing business number, and we add a dedicated SMS lead line plus a chat widget on your website. Inquiries route to the AI, which qualifies them and texts you the lead. Live voice answering can be added on request as part of a Done-For-You build. Nothing changes on your customers' end.
What CRMs and tools does it connect to?
Out of the box we connect to GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Google Sheets, Calendly, Acuity, ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, and Zapier. If you have a CRM not on the list, ask us — if it has a webhook or API, we can likely connect it.
