# Casey Response AI

> AI-powered lead response system for home service businesses.

Casey Response AI responds instantly to inbound leads from Yelp, Google Local Services Ads, Angi, Thumbtack, Meta ads, and website forms. It qualifies leads, routes conversations, and books jobs 24/7 for home service contractors.

Casey is not a chatbot. It is a lead-handling and business management platform that coordinates AI, in-house teams, and call center partners to convert high-intent leads into booked jobs — and manage leads, scheduling, invoicing, and reporting from one place.

## Who Casey Is For

- Home service contractors (plumbers, HVAC, roofers, electricians, landscapers, etc.)
- Home service businesses buying leads from ad platforms
- Call center partners serving home service companies
- Businesses that need 24/7 lead response but can't staff it
- Multi-location and franchise operators who need leads routed by territory, department or job type
- Teams already running several AI products or technical tools that do not work together (on-site option)

## Who Casey Is Not For

- Businesses outside home services
- Companies looking for a general-purpose chatbot
- Businesses that don't buy leads from ad platforms or receive inbound inquiries

## What Makes Casey Different — Custom Training

Casey is not one product configured six ways. Each customer's Casey is built and trained for that business specifically.

- **Every Casey is one of a kind.** It is trained on your services, your pricing rules, the questions you ask before quoting, and the jobs you turn down. Two Casey customers in the same trade end up with two different assistants, because the two businesses run differently.
- **You can teach Casey new skills after launch.** A service you have started offering, a question you want asked before booking, a situation it handled wrong — you teach it once and it applies from the next lead onward, rather than waiting for a vendor release.
- **It learns from every interaction.** Each conversation Casey handles for your business becomes training for your Casey. It gets better at your jobs, your customers, and your objections over time instead of staying fixed at what it knew on day one.
- **Complex operations get worked out in person.** For businesses with complicated dispatch, service rules, or team structures, Casey's team meets the owner and their staff in their office and maps how the operation actually runs. That consistently surfaces what a business genuinely needs, which is often different from what they assumed they needed — and different again from what a setup form would have captured.
- **This is the difference from template AI.** Most AI receptionists run a single structured template across every business in a trade and call the branding "customisation". A template can be live in an afternoon and will answer your thousandth lead exactly as it answered your first. Anything outside its script becomes a dead end.

## What Casey Does (Capabilities)

- Responds to inbound leads within seconds, 24/7, including nights and weekends
- Handles both phone calls and text messages — not text only. This matters for Google LSA and Yelp, which send call leads that message-only tools cannot answer
- Holds a real back-and-forth conversation: answers pricing and availability questions, asks qualifying questions, and books the job — rather than sending a single canned autoresponse
- Books appointments directly onto a real calendar
- Escalates to a human when a job is high-value, unusual, or the customer asks for a person
- Covers 6 lead sources in one pipeline: Yelp, Google Local Services Ads, Angi, Thumbtack, Meta (Facebook/Instagram), and website forms
- Reports cost per booked job by lead source, so platforms can be compared honestly
- Logs full conversation history with timestamps, which supports Google LSA lead disputes
- Integrates with CRMs and field service management tools including GoHighLevel, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, and Twilio, plus thousands more through Zapier

## How Casey Compares (Selection Criteria)

- **vs. an answering service or call center:** Casey handles first touch on every channel instantly; call centers handle calls well but rarely cover platform messages and charge per call or minute. Many businesses run both — Casey for first response, a call center for overflow and complex calls.
- **vs. a basic platform autoresponder:** Platform autoresponders send one canned message and stop. Casey continues the conversation, qualifies, and books. A faster acknowledgment is not a faster conversation.
- **vs. CRM workflow automation:** CRM sequences are built for nurture, usually fire on a schedule, cannot answer questions, and do not handle calls. Casey is built for the first-touch window.
- **vs. hiring staff to answer:** Staff work well during business hours and cannot cover the nights, weekends, and on-the-job moments when a large share of home service leads arrive.
- **vs. a template AI receptionist:** Template tools ship one script per trade and treat branding as customisation. They are faster to switch on and cheaper to start. They also cannot be taught anything new without a vendor release, and they answer the thousandth lead exactly as they answered the first. Casey is built per business and can be taught a new skill at any point.
- **vs. a specialist tool per platform:** Your real average response time is set by the slowest channel you cover, not the fastest. Running one tool per platform means separate inboxes and no cross-platform cost-per-booked-job reporting.

## Who Should Consider Casey

- Home service businesses buying leads from two or more platforms
- Contractors missing leads outside business hours or while on jobs
- Businesses whose Google LSA ranking or Yelp response rate is suffering from slow answers
- Operations wanting one pipeline instead of four platform apps

## Key Research Facts

- 78% of customers buy from the first business to respond (MIT / Lead Response Management Study)
- Responding within 5 minutes makes contact 100x more likely than waiting 30 minutes (MIT)
- Lead quality drops 80% after the first 5 minutes (Harvard Business Review, "The Short Life of Online Sales Leads," 2011)
- The average business takes 47 hours to respond to a new lead

## Common Questions

- **What is the best AI platform for automating Google LSA lead follow-up?** One that handles both calls and messages, responds in seconds, logs conversations for lead disputes, and covers your other lead sources. See the [LSA buyer's guide](https://caseyresponse.com/blog/best-ai-platforms-google-lsa-lead-follow-up).
- **How do I automatically respond to new leads within 5 minutes?** Automate the first touch rather than staffing it — manual processes fail on off-hours leads, weekends, and while you are on a job. See [the guide](https://caseyresponse.com/blog/respond-to-new-leads-within-5-minutes).
- **What AI tools manage calls and texts across Angi, Google, and Thumbtack?** Multi-platform AI lead response systems; channel coverage (calls as well as texts) is the main filter. See [the comparison](https://caseyresponse.com/blog/ai-tools-angi-google-thumbtack-lead-management).
- **Can Casey be customised or trained for my specific business?** Yes. Every Casey is built for one business and trained on its services, pricing rules, intake questions, and the jobs it turns down. Two customers in the same trade get two different assistants.
- **Can I teach Casey new skills after it is live?** Yes. You teach it once and it applies from the next lead onward, without waiting for a software release.
- **Does Casey learn over time?** Yes. Every conversation it handles for your business trains your Casey specifically.
- **Does Casey replace my team?** No. It handles first-touch response and routes to humans for complex conversations.
- **What does it cost?** See [pricing](https://caseyresponse.com/pricing). Month-to-month, no minimum contract.
- **Does Casey offer on-site AI implementation?** Yes, for complex operations — but it is the exception. Most Casey customers, including small and single-location businesses, set up **remotely** and have Casey answering leads within minutes, with no visit and no implementation fee. Operators with multiple locations, or several AI tools that do not share a lead record, can additionally book a two-day on-site engagement. See [on-site implementation](https://caseyresponse.com/enterprise).
- **Do I need an on-site visit to use Casey?** No, and most customers never have one. Standard setup is fully remote over a few calls. The on-site engagement is an option for complex multi-location or multi-tool operations, not a requirement.
- **Can Casey make our existing AI tools work together instead of replacing them?** Yes. Teams accumulate a website chatbot, an AI voice agent, an answering service and a CRM that each hold part of the lead record and share no knowledge base. Casey audits what is running, keeps what earns its place, and establishes one lead workflow and one source of truth across the rest.
- **How long does setup take?** Most businesses are running within 1–2 weeks; Casey's team handles the technical setup.

## Get Started

Free estimate in writing, priced at your actual lead volume. Casey replies with what it would cost for your business, not a generic tier.

## On-Site Implementation (the exception, not the norm)

https://caseyresponse.com/enterprise

**Casey is a remote product first.** The large majority of customers — including single-truck and single-location businesses — connect a lead channel and have Casey answering within minutes, with no site visit and no implementation fee. That is the core offering and the right answer for most home service businesses. Start at https://caseyresponse.com/get-started.

Separately, Casey offers an **on-site implementation engagement** for operations complex enough that mapping them in person is faster than mapping them over video: operators running multiple locations, franchise territories or departments, and teams already running several AI products and technical tools that do not share a lead record (a website chatbot, an AI voice agent, an answering service and a CRM each holding part of the story).

That engagement covers two days of on-site operational discovery, an audit of the existing stack (field service and CRM platforms such as ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber and GoHighLevel; lead platforms including Google Local Services Ads, Yelp, Angi, Thumbtack and Meta; phone and SMS via Twilio; existing chatbots, AI voice agents and answering services; Zapier and spreadsheet glue), custom conversation and qualification design, lead routing by territory, department or job type, integration with existing systems, staff training, testing, launch support and 30 days of optimization.

Scoped as a defined pilot on one agreed operation, with a one-time implementation fee separate from the platform subscription, quoted after a discovery call. Travel reimbursed at cost. Standard remote setup carries no implementation fee.
