AI phone pilot for the trades
Under a sink. Up a ladder. In the middle of a job. MicroBusy asks callers what they need and captures the details for your follow-up.
An example you can explore. No signup. No card.
Jamie says the sink has been blocked since this morning. No leak reported. Would like to discuss a visit tomorrow.
Illustrative example. No appointment booked.
For businesses that work
with their hands.
A useful first conversation
A name and a missed call only tell you so much. MicroBusy gathers the context you need to start the next conversation.
The assistant asks about the job, the location, and how to reach the caller.
Answers draw on your published services. When something is unclear, the assistant is instructed to ask rather than guess.
Review the captured details, then follow up. Quotes, appointments, and decisions stay with you.
See the idea in action
Choose a trade to see the kind of conversation and message MicroBusy is designed to capture.
Scripted examples, not a live call or a customer testimonial. Actual AI responses can vary.
Caller
“My kitchen sink won’t drain. Can someone look at it tomorrow?”

“Jamie. I’m in Grand Rapids. My number is 616-555-0142.”
MicroBusy · AI assistant
“Thanks, Jamie. I’ll note that you’d prefer tomorrow. The team will need to confirm availability.”

Start with a small test
The pilot is deliberately small: a week to see whether the messages are useful to your business, without a recurring bill.
For US businesses already using Twilio.
The phone setup must pass a compatibility check first. Just forwarding an ordinary mobile or landline number is not enough.
Before you try it
The phone pilot requires a compatible US Twilio phone line with an independently working HTTPS answering route. Ordinary carrier forwarding alone does not establish compatibility. The route must be verified before customer calls. You can check your phone setup without booking a meeting. Confirm the setup-call enquiry reached your inbox before paying or sending customer calls to the assistant.
No. It identifies itself as an AI assistant before callers consent to transcription. Callers press 1 before their audio reaches the AI.
It is instructed to leave pricing to your business and collect a preferred time without confirming an appointment. AI can make mistakes, so review the details before following up.
Calls reaching the transcription consent prompt count, including repeats, spam, silence and hang-ups. Callers press 1 before their audio reaches the AI. This is a limited pilot, so review the allowance before directing customer calls to it.
Explore the examples above, then check whether your phone setup fits. The setup call and inbox check come before payment. Paid signup is still being prepared; business-specific chat previews are currently paused.
The pilot ends. There is no automatic renewal or ongoing subscription. Existing purchases keep their accepted terms.
