Home Industries Construction and trades
AI for construction and trades.
Most contractors are specialty trades with fewer than 50 field staff. A missed call usually means a lost job, and estimating eats evenings. AI answering and takeoffs are the two proven starts.
You probably run ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, Procore, Buildertrend.
Where AI helps
After-hours and overflow calls
An AI receptionist answers, books into your real calendar and escalates emergencies. It never quotes a price or arrival time outside your script.
Takeoffs
AI measures plans automatically. The estimator checks scale, layers and scope exclusions before anything is priced.
RFIs, submittals and daily logs
Drafted from photos, plans and voice notes. Procore's Helix agents do this for commercial GCs.
Job-specific safety plans
A JHA or toolbox talk built from the actual scope, reviewed by the foreman instead of copied from last year's binder.
Rules to know
- Both statesRecording calls needs only one party's consent in Iowa and Minnesota. Have the AI say it is AI and that the call is recorded; out-of-state callers may be protected by stricter laws.
- Both statesSafety and OSHA responsibility stays with a person. An AI-written JHA is a draft until a competent person signs it.
Tools that fit
- Jobber Receptionist. $29 a month including 30 conversations, then $0.79 each.
- ServiceTitan Atlas or Housecall Pro CSR AI. If you already run those systems.
- Togal.AI or STACK. AI takeoffs; Togal is $299 a person a month on an annual plan.
Where we would start
AI answering on after-hours and overflow calls
Two weeks of phone-log baseline, then turn on the add-on for the field-service system you already use, with approved scripts. 30 to 60 days.
What we measure: answer rate, calls that became booked jobs, revenue from those jobs, and any mis-promises (target: zero).

State rules are shown for Minnesota and Iowa, the states we cover in depth; for any other state we check yours before you start. Prices and features are as published by each vendor in November 2026 and change often. Rules are summarized to help you ask the right questions; they are not legal advice, and your attorney or CPA signs off.
