Your phone never goes to voicemail again.
An AI receptionist that answers every call, qualifies the lead, books the appointment on your calendar, and drops a transcript in your inbox — before the caller hangs up.
Before any of this matters, the question is what missed calls are actually costing you. Most service-business owners don't know — they see a busy day, not the seven calls that rang out while they were on a roof. The number is bigger than you think, and unlike payroll or rent it doesn't show up on a P&L. It just isn't there.
Phones are the loudest leak in a service business. The four numbers below say why — and why most owners underestimate the bleed by an order of magnitude.
The phone is the loudest leak. Plug it first.
So how much is the leak in your specific business? Drop your average ticket and your weekly call volume below. The number it spits out is the conservative case — what you're losing right now, not what you'd save if every captured call closed. Use it to decide whether $447 is a price or a discount.
Move the sliders. The calculator uses the industry-standard 27% miss rate plus your inputs to estimate what's walking out the door — and what you'd net after LEAP's $447/mo Voice plan.
Conservative. Uses the industry-average 27% miss rate, the 60% reach factor (bots / wrong numbers / already-booked-elsewhere account for the rest), and a $50/hr loaded labor cost on the time slider. Most businesses we audit are higher on miss rate and lower on reach quality — meaning your real number is usually bigger than what's on screen. Numbers are illustrative, not a guarantee.
Six capabilities that turn your phone line from a liability into a 24/7 lead-generation machine.
Most of this isn't unique to LEAP — it's the bar. What separates a real AI receptionist from a phone tree, an off-the-shelf bot, or a $300/mo answering service is who's responsible when a call goes wrong. Here's how the four common ways stack up.
Four ways businesses try to solve the missed-calls problem. Three of them have well-known limits. We built LEAP Receptionist to skip them.
Four steps, fully automated. You stay focused on the work — LEAP Receptionist handles the phone.
That's the engine. The shape of the conversation — the urgency cues it listens for, the qualifying questions it asks, the appointment types it knows are bookable — that's tuned to the work you actually do. Pick your industry below to see what that sounds like in practice.
The AI's voice, vocabulary, and qualifying questions are tailored to the work you actually do. Pick your industry to see what that looks like in practice.
Cooling-out emergencies don't wait for office hours. The AI prioritizes urgency cues ("no heat", "baby in the house"), pulls service area + unit type, and routes after-hours calls to your on-call tech if it's an emergency.
Knows your service zip codes, brand specialization, and whether you charge a diagnostic fee — so the caller hears the same answer your office manager would give.
Leaks and clogs are calls you can't lose. The AI asks the right urgency questions ("is the water shut off?"), captures the address, and routes the active emergency to your on-call number while non-emergencies book a normal slot.
Trained on your service mix — residential vs commercial, drain cleaning vs repipe — so the AI quotes the diagnostic fee or service-call rate the way you'd want it quoted.
Listing inquiries are time-sensitive. The AI confirms whether the property is still available, qualifies whether the caller is a buyer / seller / renter, and books a showing or pulls them into your buyer pipeline before they call the next agent.
Knows your active listings, agent availability, and how you handle FSBO vs MLS inquiries — without a bot vibe that scares off serious buyers.
For electricians, painters, roofers, landscapers, cleaners — the AI handles project-scope intake (room count, sq ft, square footage of roof, etc.), screens for ZIP code, and books either a free estimate or paid diagnostic depending on your model.
One AI configuration per trade, tuned to your service catalog and your "we don't do that" list — so the AI never quotes a job you'd turn down.
The phone rings while you're under a hood. The AI handles vehicle intake (year / make / model), captures the symptom, and books the diagnostic without pulling you off a job. Drop-off vs in-and-out is asked up front so the appointment lands in the right slot.
Knows whether you handle European, domestic, diesel, or all of the above — and turns away the calls you don't want before they hit your desk.
New-patient calls are time-sensitive and the front desk is constantly mid-checkout. The AI handles the new-patient intake (insurance, reason for visit, last cleaning), screens for what your practice treats, and books the right appointment type without putting the caller on hold.
Knows your provider list, accepted insurance, and which procedures need a consult vs. a same-day booking — so a Botox inquiry doesn't get scheduled into a hygiene chair.
The dinner rush hits and the host has three families in the doorway. The AI handles reservation calls, takeout orders, and the "are you open on Christmas Eve" questions without pulling anyone off the floor. Big-party requests get flagged before they hit your inbox so you can confirm the layout.
Knows your hours, menu specials, dietary capabilities, and which nights take walk-ins vs reservations — so the AI never books two parties of eight into the same room.
Both plans include full setup, managed optimization, and CRM integration. Pick the channel coverage that fits your business.
The questions every owner asks before they sign. The voice. The hand-off. The lock-in. The 10DLC thing nobody warned them about. Asked and answered before you have to email us.
Every unanswered call is a customer choosing someone else. LEAP Receptionist makes sure that never happens again.
AI-powered phone answering + managed service.
