Every heatwave, HVAC techs miss work to unanswered calls.

If you’re an Australian HVAC technician, your phone rings while you’re recovering refrigerant on a 42°C tin roof, halfway through a ducted commission in a Western Sydney warehouse, or three rungs up a ladder in a Hawthorn ceiling space. Most homeowners on the second day of a heatwave don’t leave a message. They ring the next HVAC mob on Google.

Callout exists for that reason. We’re an AI receptionist purpose-built for Aussie trades, with a real-sounding Australian voice that picks up every call, scopes the fault, and hands you a written lead summary the second the call ends. You stay on the tools. The work keeps coming in.

From dropped call to qualified lead in a few minutes.

Search your business by name and suburb when you sign up. We draft your services and FAQs from your website while you watch. Pick a voice from our Australian voice library, take it for a quick test call, choose a plan. About a minute later your dedicated Australian number is answering calls. Available across VIC, NSW, QLD, SA, WA and TAS.

01 · Live intake

Built for the calls HVAC techs actually get.

Callout takes the call exactly the way a sharp office manager would. Captures what the customer needs, where they are, how urgent it is, and texts them a booking link if they want one. You see the lead the moment they hang up.

  • Captures what they need, where they are, and when they want it, in plain English.
  • Recognises emergency keywords (no aircon, no heating, refrigerant smell) and flags the lead as urgent.
  • Offers a booking link by SMS so the customer can self-schedule, if you've got that turned on.

Hi, our split-system’s blowing warm air, it’s 39 today and we’ve got a baby in the house.
Callout
No worries, I can get that sorted. What’s the address?
We’re at 27 Glenferrie Rd, Hawthorn.
Got it. How soon are you wanting someone out?
Today if possible, the house is heating up fast.
Understood. What’s your first name, and is this the best number to reach you on?
Liam, yep this number’s fine.
Beauty. Want me to text you a link so you can pick a time, or would you rather wait for the team to ring back?
Send the link, thanks.
Perfect. You’ll get a text just after we hang up. Talk soon.
