Your receptionist. Always on.
Never miss another lawn care lead. Grunlo AI Receptionist answers phone calls, collects job details, checks service areas, and turns conversations into estimate requests — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Full integration with your jobs, estimates, contracts, schedule & more
Every missed call is a job you'll never know about.
You're on a mower, not at a desk.
When the phone rings at 2 PM, you're running a trimmer, not running to a desk. By the time you call back, they've already booked someone else.
Voicemail is a dead end.
Most callers hang up. The ones who leave a message? Half the details are garbled. You're chasing callbacks with incomplete info.
After-hours leads disappear.
Homeowners search for lawn care in the evening. If nobody picks up at 7 PM, they call the next company on the list.
Hiring a receptionist is expensive.
A dedicated office person costs $35K–$50K a year. That's hard to justify when you're still growing.
From ringing phone to estimate request in 3 minutes.
Customer calls your number.
The AI Receptionist answers with your company name and a friendly, natural greeting. No hold music. No "press 1 for…" menus.
Collects the details you need.
Name, address, phone number, what they need done, property size, urgency — the AI gathers everything through natural conversation, just like a real receptionist would.
Checks your service area.
The AI knows where you operate. If the caller is outside your service area, it lets them know politely. No wasted follow-ups on jobs you'd never take.
Creates an estimate request in Grunlo.
The call ends. The lead is already in your system with all the details, ready for you to review and send an estimate. Nothing written on a napkin. Nothing forgotten.
What a real call sounds like.
The AI Receptionist has a natural, conversational tone. Here's a typical inbound call.
Optional add-on to any Grunlo plan
It knows your business — because it is in your business.
Unlike generic AI phone services, the Grunlo AI Receptionist has live access to your actual business data. If your human receptionist could look it up, the AI already knows it.
- Jobs & schedules — knows what's on the calendar, what crews are assigned, and what's coming up
- Estimates & invoices — can reference pricing, open estimates, and outstanding balances
- Customer records — recognizes returning callers and pulls up their history
- Service area — checks if the caller's address is within your coverage zone
- Contracts — understands active service agreements and their terms
Turns every call into an actionable lead.
The AI doesn't just answer — it qualifies. It collects the information you need to send an estimate, checks feasibility, and creates a structured lead in Grunlo that's ready for follow-up.
- Structured data — name, phone, address, service type, property details — all captured cleanly
- Estimate requests — new leads appear as estimate requests, ready for you to price and send
- Service qualification — the AI asks the right questions based on what services you offer
- Duplicate detection — recognizes existing customers and links calls to their record
Works when you can't. Even when you wouldn't.
The AI Receptionist doesn't take lunch breaks, doesn't call in sick, and doesn't clock out at 5. It handles calls at 7 AM Saturday, 9 PM Tuesday, and every holiday in between.
- After hours — captures leads when your office is closed
- During the workday — picks up when you're on a mower, in a meeting, or on another call
- Weekends & holidays — homeowners search for services all week; now you're always ready
- Overflow handling — if your team is on the line, the AI catches the calls that would otherwise go to voicemail
Smart enough to know when to hand off.
Not every call should be handled by AI. The receptionist recognizes when a caller needs a real person — urgent issues, complex questions, angry customers — and routes them accordingly.
- Escalation rules — define when calls should transfer to you or your team
- Call summaries — even when it handles the full call, you get a written summary of what was discussed
- Graceful transitions — the caller never feels like they're stuck talking to a robot
How it stacks up.
