An open duplicate job book and a ballpoint pen on the dashboard of a work van

You write the docket in the van. Handled writes it while you are under a sink.

Four things it does that a phone receptionist cannot

Hot lead alert

It asks the urgency, the service, the location and the budget, then scores the enquiry Hot, Warm or Cold.

A Hot one emails you straight away: call back within 5 minutes.

Instant quote

It takes the details, then emails a quote in your name, priced from your own list.

The customer taps Accept, picks a slot, and the job lands in your diary.

Review Engine

Mark a job done and your customer gets your Google review link, with one follow-up after 3 days.

Reactivation

It remembers every job and its service interval, then emails the customer 12 months later.

The AI receptionists answer the phone. The texts go unanswered.

A growing share of trade enquiries arrives as text, at 10pm, from someone who is messaging the next three companies on Google as well. One line pasted into your site puts your front desk in front of them.

One enquiry is one customer conversation, handled end to end, however many messages it takes.

Packs never expire. Top up when the balance runs low.

Nothing is wasted: a sales pitch, a bot or a wrong number is put straight back on your balance. Your first 10 enquiries are free, and there is no card to start.

Questions worth asking before you hand over your messages

What happens if a job is not on my price list?Open

The front desk never invents a figure. It says that one is confirmed on the day, then takes the job, the urgency and the contact anyway. An urgent one emails you within seconds, and every one of them is waiting on your dashboard for you to price yourself.

What do I have to connect it to?Open

Nothing. The diary and the enquiry list live in Handled, so there is no calendar to link and no mailbox to hand over. Your front desk gets its own page in your name, and you send customers to it or link it from your site. Syncing your own Google or Outlook calendar is not built yet.

Do spam and wrong numbers eat my enquiries?Open

No. When a message is not a customer with a job — a sales pitch, an automated message, a wrong number — that enquiry goes straight back on your balance, and you are never alerted about it.

Type your website address. Watch it read your prices, your hours and your service area.
