AI receptionist for electricians: faults and quotes without missed calls
You can't answer the phone when you're up a ladder. Slimbot captures fault reports and quote requests via WhatsApp, phone, e-mail and your website, asks for address, photo and urgency, and prepares everything in one team inbox.
Hi, our earth leakage circuit breaker keeps tripping when the washing machine starts.

How annoying! To pass it on properly: what's your address, and could you send a photo of the fuse box?

In practice
What electricians receive — and what Slimbot does
"The power has just gone out in the kitchen."
The assistant asks which group, whether the earth leakage circuit breaker has tripped, and asks for a photo. Your team sees the report with all the details.
"What does it cost to have a charging point installed?"
No made-up amount: the assistant asks for property type, distance to the meter cupboard and a photo, and prepares the request for your quote.
"Can you replace a distribution board this week?"
Offer available slots from your calendar; you confirm the schedule.
"(missed call during a job)"
AI phone answering picks up on your number and records the question; you call back with the full story in front of you.
"I smell burning near the socket."
Immediate advice to switch off the circuit and call 112 in case of danger, and the report goes to your team with priority.
