At a glance
Defined by the workflow, not only the voice

FAQ
Electrical contractor questions
Does the agent give electrical advice?
No. It applies an approved safety instruction, collects context, and routes the call. It does not guide a repair.
Can it separate residential and commercial work?
Yes. Building type and scope are early qualification questions.
Can it book an estimate?
Yes when territories, durations, resources, and availability are validated in the calendar integration.
Can it route by license or specialty?
Routing can use capabilities when your scheduling and availability source maintains them accurately.
