Homeowner calls about a burst pipe in their basement

Caller
Reports a burst pipe and flooding
A homeowner calls in a panic — a pipe burst in their basement and water is spreading. They need someone immediately.
Nicecall™ AI
Recognizes emergency and gathers details
Nicecall™ identifies this as an emergency and asks about the location of the burst, whether the water main has been shut off, the property address, and if there's electrical equipment near the water.
Nicecall™ AI

Post-call action
Dispatches on-call plumber
Nicecall™ sends an urgent alert to the on-call plumber with the address, issue details, and customer phone number. The plumber receives a text and call notification.

Inbound — Scheduled Service

Customer calls to schedule a water heater replacement

Nicecall™ AI

Nicecall™ AI

Caller

The homeowner picks Thursday at 9 AM and confirms their address and contact info.

Post-call action
Sends confirmation and prep instructions
The customer receives a text with the appointment time, plumber's name, and a note to clear the area around the water heater before the visit.
