Brand and model number off the appliance tag, the symptom in the customer’s words, warranty status, service address, and best callback — written to the ticket before the call ends.

Book a service window 24/7

Offers two open slots on the dispatch calendar and sends a confirmation text so the urgent caller stays yours instead of the next shop.

A Dead Fridge Will Not Wait

What breaks

A customer with a flooded washer or a fridge full of spoiling food wants someone out today. If the call hits voicemail, they dial the next shop on the list before you ever call back.

What Kai does

Kai answers every call instantly, captures the appliance, brand, model, and symptom, and books a service window 24/7 so the urgent caller stays yours

After-Hours Callers Reach Voicemail

What breaks

Appliances break at dinner and on weekends. Those after-hours calls are your highest-intent customers — and a voicemail sends them straight to a competitor.

FAQs

Common questions

01What details does Kai capture on an appliance repair call?

Kai captures the appliance type — fridge, washer, dryer, oven, or dishwasher — the brand and model number, the exact symptom, whether it is still under warranty, and the full service address. It confirms the best callback number and books a service window. Your tech gets a ready-to-dispatch ticket with the make and model logged so they roll with the right parts instead of a second trip.

02Can Kai answer while my tech is on a job?

Yes — that is the whole point. When your tech is elbow-deep in a flooded washer and a new call comes in, it normally goes to voicemail and the caller dials the next shop. Kai answers every call instantly, captures the appliance, brand, model, and symptom, and books the service window while your tech stays focused on the repair in front of them.

03Does Kai log the make and model so we bring the right parts?

Yes. Kai asks for the brand and model number on the appliance tag and writes it to the ticket, along with the symptom the customer describes. Your tech sees a dead Whirlpool fridge with a specific model number and symptom before they leave the shop, so they load the right compressor or board and finish the job on the first visit.

04Which scheduling and CRM tools does Kai integrate with?

Kai passes tickets into Housecall Pro, Jobber, ServiceTitan, GoHighLevel, Google Calendar, and Zapier (5,000+ apps), and supports custom integrations for whatever your shop runs — typically built within 48 hours. Each ticket includes appliance type, brand, model, symptom, warranty status, address, and the booked window.

05How much does a missed appliance repair call cost me?

A typical appliance repair ticket runs $150–$450, and a dead fridge or flooded washer is urgent — most callers ring the next shop the moment they hit voicemail. A handful of missed calls a week during jobs is thousands in lost tickets every month. Kai answers all of them for a flat monthly price — a few saved tickets cover the cost many times over.

06A caller is not sure if their appliance is under warranty. What does Kai do?

Kai still captures the brand, model, and symptom, notes that warranty status is unconfirmed, and books the service window so the job does not slip to a competitor. It flags the warranty question on the ticket so your office can verify it before the tech rolls — you keep the customer instead of losing them to a shop that picked up.
