You work. We answer.
AnswerWorks is an AI front desk for local service businesses. It answers your shop's phone in your name, books your customers, and lets your contractors, suppliers, and family ring straight through to you. Your demo is already built — hear it answer as your shop.
We built demos for 700+ shops before ever calling them. Type your shop's name — your code shows up as you type. No forms, no waiting.
Don't take our word for it. Call it.
It answers as your business, with your services, your hours, your service area — because we loaded your info before we ever called you.
Book a test appointment like you're a customer who needs an estimate, hang up, and we'll send you the exact lead it captured — name, number, job, the works. That's what lands in your lap every time a customer calls after hours.
Start with a free week
No paying for promises. The front desk works your real phone line for seven days first — real calls, real leads.
Sign up — $0 today
Put a card on file and we connect the front desk to your real shop number. Your number never changes.
7 days free
A full week live on your line. Watch the calls get answered and the leads land in your lap.
Day 8: $750
Only if you keep it. That's the setup and your first month, covered. Cancel any time during the free week and you pay nothing, ever.
Then your monthly rate
Your tier price starts after the first month. Flat bill, cancel anytime — no per-minute meters, no per-call charges.
One flat price. Founding rate for everyone.
While we're building, every shop that signs up gets the founding rate. Same bill in a January cold snap as in a slow July week.

How it fits your world
No new systems to learn, nothing to rip out. AnswerWorks slots into the way your shop already runs.
Paying
Billing runs through Stripe — any major card. You manage it yourself in your own billing portal: update your card, see your invoices, cancel — no phone call, no games. Manage billing
Your leads
The moment a call ends, the lead lands in your email — name, number, what they need. Nothing waits on us.
Your job apps
AnswerWorks runs alongside the apps you already run your jobs on — Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, and the rest. Every lead lands in your inbox with the details those apps ask for — name, number, address, the job, when they want it — ready to drop straight in.
Booking
On Chat + Booking and Full Front Desk, appointments go on the calendar you already use. No second calendar to babysit.
Your number
Your number stays yours. We answer behind it — and your contractors, suppliers, and family ring straight through to you like always.
Two ways it pays you back
Refer a shop — get a free month
Know a shop drowning in phone calls? Send them our way. Your referral counts when they finish their free week and their first payment lands — and you get one free month. Every signed referral earns it. No counting to three, no fine print.
Say it in your words — $100 off
If the front desk is earning its keep and you'll say so in a testimonial we can publish — with your permission — we take $100 off your next invoice. It applies once you're a paying customer past your own day 8.
Your phone, your rules
You pick how the phone behaves — and you can flip it any time with one carrier code or one text to us.
Full Cover
Every customer call goes to the front desk, all day, so you can stay heads-down on the work.
Owner-First
Calls ring you live first. Anything you don't answer rolls to the front desk — nothing gets missed.
After-Hours Only
You answer during the day. The front desk owns nights, weekends, and holidays.
The ring-through list: name the numbers that matter — your contractors, your suppliers, your family — and those calls skip the front desk and ring straight through to your cell. Customers get the front desk. Your people get you.
