Every missed call hires your competitor.

You’re on the job with your hands full. NorthBell picks up, quotes your real prices from your own price list, and saves the booking for you to approve. The caller never hears voicemail and never dials the next company on the list.

Keep your number. No new phone system. Un-forward any time.

Live call · Acme Roll-OffExample business
  1. Receptionist

    Thanks for calling Acme Roll-Off! This call may be recorded. How may I help you?

  2. Caller

    Hey, how much is a 16-yard dumpster? I’m cleaning out a garage.

  3. Receptionist

    A 16-yard rental is $450.00 per week. Would you like to get one scheduled?

  4. Caller

    Yeah. Can you drop it next Monday?

Example business. Every price and date the receptionist says comes from that business’s own settings.

The problem

A missed call is lost money.

You’re on a site with your hands full. The caller isn’t leaving a voicemail. They’re dialing the next company on the list. By the time you call back, the dumpster’s already ordered from someone else.

Switchboard picks up, answers the question, and saves the job for you to confirm.

  • $0

    invented prices. Every number the receptionist says is computed from your own price list.

  • 1:1

    one unit, one booking. Two callers can’t get the same dumpster for the same dates.

  • Any hour

    it answers whenever your line rings: nights, weekends, and the middle of a job.

  • Your call

    every request waits for your approval, unless you choose to let it auto-book.

Capabilities

What your receptionist does

  • Answers with your information

    Hours, service area, what you do and don’t take, answered from facts you write, not guesses.

  • Quotes your exact prices

    For fixed-price work, every number comes from your price list. It never does the math itself.

  • Takes requests & messages

    Name, callback number, address, and what they need, saved the moment the call confirms it.

  • Remembers repeat callers

    Recognizes the number, greets them by name, and can see their upcoming job.

Your call

It lands in your queue. You decide.

Every request shows who called, what they want, and when. Approve it on the schedule where you can see your units, or deny it. Nothing is final until you say so.

Works on your phone, from the truck.

Setup

Three steps. No new phone system.

  1. We set it up with you

    Your services and prices, hours, service area, policies. We build the receptionist and test-call it with you before it takes a real call.

  2. Forward your number

    Keep the number on your truck. Forward it to the line we give you, and un-forward it any time to go back to how things were.

  3. Approve from anywhere

    Requests and messages land in a dashboard that works on your phone. Approve, deny, or call them back.

Why trust it

Rules it cannot break.

We’re new, so we have no customer logos to show you yet. Judge us on what the system will not let the receptionist do.

How it works in detail

  • It never invents a price

    Every number comes from your price list and is computed by our system. The AI never does arithmetic.

  • It never double-books

    Your units are tracked one by one in the database, so two callers can’t get the same one for the same dates.

  • It never says “you’re booked” unless it’s saved

    If saving fails mid-call, it says so and takes the caller’s name and number instead.

  • It only sees your business

    Each business is isolated, and that isolation is re-tested automatically on every change we ship.

  • It never asks for a card number

    Payment stays between you and your customer.

FAQ

Questions owners ask first.

Does it make up prices?

No. For dumpster rentals, every price it says is computed by our system from the price list you set. The AI never does the math and never quotes from memory. For pressure washing it doesn’t quote at all; it tells the caller you’ll call back with the number. If you’ve written typical starting ranges into your business info, it can share those only as non-binding ballparks, and it always adds that you’ll confirm.

Does it actually book, or just take messages?

That depends on your trade and your setting. For dumpster rental it takes a booking request with the date, size, delivery address, and callback number, and tells the caller you’ll confirm. You approve it on your schedule. If you’d rather it confirm directly, auto-book is available and we set that up with you. For pressure washing it never books, because it can’t see the job; it captures the lead and you schedule after you’ve quoted.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. You keep the number that’s on your truck and your website, and forward it to the line we give you. Forwarding is a standard carrier feature; we’ll walk through it with you, and you can undo it at any time.
