AI receptionist for pest control companies
Stop losing jobs to a phone you can’t answer.
We put an AI receptionist on the number you already have. It answers the calls you can’t get to. The wasp nest, the rodents, the “I think I’ve got termites”. Then it books the visit and follows up.
Not a message-taking service. It books the work.
- It answers at 7am, at 7pm, and every hour in between, even while you’re under a house or up a ladder
- It books the work into your diary, not onto a note you find on Thursday
- You hear it handle your own calls before you pay a penny
Nothing to install, and it answers 24/7.
Get a free demo on your own calls
Thirty minutes, and the agent calls you. You hear it handle your own pest calls, the awkward ones included. No card. Nothing to sign.
Rather talk to a person? Book a 30-minute call with Ali.
What changes
Once it’s running, the phone is no longer your problem.
We’re not selling you software. Your phone gets answered, your visits get booked, and the chasing comes off your desk.
The demo
Hear it handle your calls before you decide anything.
Book a time and the AI calls you. It’s set up around your business: your hours, your patch, the calls that actually come in, and the ones that should always go to a person. You commit to nothing on the call.
Pick a time below and you’ll get a confirmation straight away.
- No card, nothing to sign.
- You get a confirmation, and a reminder before the call.
- If it isn’t a fit, say so and we’re done.
Three very ordinary days on the route
Same receptionist. Three calls you would have missed.
7:40pm, you’ve knocked off for the day
The phone rings after hours. Someone’s found wasps in the loft. It answers, works out what it is and how urgent, and books the visit.
You’re already on the phone
A second caller doesn’t get a busy tone. It books the inspection, and sends the reminder that stops the no-show.
You’re under a house when a new customer rings
It answers, asks what they’ve seen and how long it’s been going on, and books the visit with the details you need to price it. If they go quiet, it follows up instead of letting them drift.
How it works
Three steps. You hear it before it goes live.
You tell us how you run
Your hours, the calls you get, your rules, and the calls that should always go to a person.
We build it. You listen.
Built and tested in your wording, with your calls, before anything goes live. You correct it until it sounds like you.
It goes live on your number
The number you already have, answering from day one. First month of adjustments included.
Pricing
You know the price before we build.
Tell us how your phone runs and we’ll quote you. One fixed price, agreed before we build anything, and it doesn’t change afterwards.
Proof
We’d rather you heard it than believed us.
Aporia Nous is built on Votel, an established platform running live phone agents. Nothing here is a test run. We won’t borrow someone else’s case study: put the agent on your own calls, live, and hear it for yourself.
Questions
The things everybody asks first.
Straight answers on what this does, what it costs, and how it differs from a message-taking answering service.
What is an AI receptionist?
An AI receptionist answers your business phone, follows your rules, and books the appointment. It hands the caller to a person when it should. Aporia Nous builds one on the number you already have, so nothing changes about how customers reach you. Hear it handle your own calls on a free demo.
What if a caller asks for a person?
It passes them through. You tell us up front which calls must always reach a human: a wasp nest at a school, a complaint, a regular who asks for you by name. Those rules are yours, and you can change them any time.
How much does it cost?
You get a fixed quote before we build, and it doesn’t change afterwards. There’s no list price. It depends on how much your phone has to handle and what the agent has to connect to. Contact us and we’ll quote you.
How long does setup take?
We agree the setup window with you before you pay anything. It isn’t a fixed number, because it depends on the size of your business and the work involved, and it goes into your quote. If we miss it, your setup fee is refunded in full: claim within 14 days of the missed deadline, and we process the refund within 10 business days. After that it’s case by case. Book a call and we’ll scope yours.
What happens if we stop working together?
Aporia Nous works month to month. Thirty days’ notice, and there’s nothing to buy out. Your customer information is yours: ask and we’ll hand over the enquiries and bookings the agent took for you. We keep our own copy for thirty days after the end, then delete it. The line the agent answers on is ours and stays with us. Your quote says exactly what happens to it.
Do our customers keep calling the same number?
Yes. Your customers keep dialling the same number, so nothing changes for them. The line the agent answers on is ours and stays with us when you leave. Your quote sets that out before you sign, not after.
Do you build for pest control companies?
Yes. Aporia Nous builds for pest control companies. That’s who this is for. The agent answers the calls you can’t get to and books the visits with the details you need to price them. Ask us how it would work for your week.
Will callers know they’re talking to an AI?
Yes. It tells the caller it’s an AI at the start of the call. That’s a rule we hold ourselves to, not something you have to ask for. Some states already require it when an AI talks to a customer, so it’s also the safe position. If you want different wording for your own business, we set that with you on the call.
