By trade

The trades where a missed call is an emergency somebody else handles within the hour.

Phone answering for plumbers You are under a sink with your hands in the water and the phone rings. It is a leak at somebody else's place — and it is not waiting for you to finish. Phone answering for locksmiths A slammed door does not wait. Whoever picks up first does the job; whoever calls back an hour later reaches a customer already let in. Phone answering for electricians You are inside a consumer unit, power off, gloves on. A call missed right then is a fault somebody else looks at this afternoon. Phone answering for heating engineers At the first cold snap your phone rings all day while you are already on a job. It is the week that makes — or loses — the year. Phone answering for glaziers A broken shopfront cannot stay open until tomorrow. Those calls are won within the hour, usually while you are already on a job.

Another trade? It works exactly the same — create your account and pick your trade on the first step.

Why not a traditional answering service

A human service costs several hundred a month and stops in the evening, at weekends and over holidays. The line picks up at 9pm on a Saturday.
Voicemail asks no questions. You call back not knowing whether it is an emergency or a quote, and usually too late.
Here the request arrives written down: reason, urgency, address and number. You decide what comes first at a glance.

Frequently asked questions

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. Keep your usual number. You activate a reception number in your name from your dashboard in one click — from day one of the trial — then forward the calls you cannot take to it. Nothing to port, nothing to configure.

Can PilotCore book my appointments?

Yes. During the 30-day trial the receptionist books the slot in your diary. After that automatic booking is included on Pro (€349) and Premium (€699); Starter (€149) answers and qualifies without setting the slot.

Is it really free for 30 days?

Yes. 30 days, every feature (including appointment booking), no credit card. Nothing is charged at the end of the trial: you pick a plan or you stop.

How do my calls reach PilotCore?

You activate your reception number from your dashboard on the first day of the trial. Then you forward the calls you cannot take to it — three codes to dial once on your mobile, shown in your workspace. You keep your personal number.
