Emergency call capture

Never miss an emergency call — even at 2 AM.

When an emergency call comes in, the AI picks up in under 3 seconds, asks the right triage questions (address, problem, urgency), and texts you the full summary while you're still rubbing sleep out of your eyes. You call back already knowing what's wrong and where to go — your dispatch system handles the rest.

How RingReady handles emergency calls

We answer, triage, summarize, and hand off. You (or your dispatch software) decide who responds.

Always picks up

Under 3 seconds, every call, every hour. The AI doesn't sleep, doesn't take breaks, doesn't go on vacation. While voicemail loses 60–70% of emergency callers, the AI keeps them on the line.

Asks the right questions

Configurable triage script per industry. Plumbing: address, what's leaking, is the water still running. HVAC: AC or heat, when did it stop, anyone vulnerable in the home. Locksmith: address, locked out of car or house, do you have ID. You set the questions; the AI asks every time.

Real-time message handoff

SMS and email summary lands in your inbox while the call is still happening. Customer name, callback number, address, exact words, urgency — everything you need to call back informed. No transcript-hunting after the fact.

Texts a booking link for non-emergencies

If the caller says "actually, I'd like to schedule for tomorrow", the AI texts them your booking link so they pick a time on the tool you already use (Calendly, Housecall Pro, Square, your Google booking page). Emergencies get message-handed-off; routine booking requests get your link.

Emergency triage rules

Tell the AI what counts as urgent in plain English — "gas leak," "flooding," "no heat." Urgent calls get flagged so you call back first; routine ones queue for morning. You dial back informed — with the address and problem already in hand.

Spam stays out

Sales calls and spam are filtered before they hit your phone. Only real customers reach the message handoff. You stop getting woken up by extended-warranty pitches at 6 AM.

Common questions

Does RingReady actually dispatch to my on-call tech?

No — and that's intentional. RingReady captures the emergency call, gets the full details, and immediately sends you the summary by SMS and email. You (or your dispatch software like ServiceTitan / Housecall Pro / Jobber) handle the routing to a specific technician. The win is that you never miss the call AND you have full info when you decide where to send it.

How fast do I get the message?

Within seconds. The summary lands in your inbox via SMS and email while the call is still happening. Most owners open it, see the address and problem, and call back before the customer has hung up the phone.

Can it live-transfer to my cell instead of just sending a message?

No — RingReady doesn't transfer live calls. Instead, the SMS summary (name, callback number, address, problem) lands on your phone while the caller is still on the line, so you can ring back in seconds. Most owners find that faster and more reliable than a cold transfer: you see the details first and call back informed.

Will it integrate with ServiceTitan / Housecall Pro / Jobber?

Yes. When the AI books an appointment or captures a job, it auto-creates a job ticket in your dispatch software with the full intake notes. Your dispatcher (human or software) handles routing to a specific tech. See integration guides for ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, and Jobber.

How does the AI know what's an emergency vs routine?

Combination of (1) keyword matching from your custom list ("burst pipe," "flooding," "no heat," "locked out"), (2) phrasing context ("right now," "already started," "won't stop"), and (3) time-of-day rules (after-hours weights toward emergency). The AI asks one or two clarifying questions if uncertain ("is the water still actively coming in?").

What about surge events — freezes, storms, heat waves?

Unlimited concurrent answering. The 2021 Texas freeze drove some plumbing companies to 500+ calls in 48 hours; the AI captures every one and forwards every summary, with no rate-limit. Flat $39/month even during the worst surge weeks. See the plumbing FAQ for how freeze events work.

Can the AI book the appointment instead of just forwarding a message?

Yes — for non-emergency calls, the AI texts the caller your booking link so they schedule themselves on the tool you already use (Calendly, Housecall Pro, Square, your Google booking page). Emergencies get the message-handoff path; routine booking requests get your link. You set the rules.
