Collect a dispatch-ready request from the first call

An hiify.ai agent can collect the service type, address, contact details, and urgency labels you define, then book a supported visit or notify dispatch through a configured workflow.

Start freeFollow the workflow

From first hello to handoff

The whole conversation, made explicit.

Each part is visible in the builder. You decide what the agent asks, which source it trusts, what connected action it can take, and when a person takes over.

01

Incoming moment

A customer calls while the office is closed or the team is coordinating work in the field.

02

What the agent understands

  • The requested trade, location, timing, and caller contact details
  • Service areas, hours, and process information in approved sources
  • Which branch your flow uses for routine and priority requests
03

What it can do

  • Collect structured job details
  • Book a returned appointment slot
  • Create a CRM contact or trigger a configured n8n notification
04

Human handoff

Safety-sensitive situations, requests outside the defined flow, and jobs requiring dispatch judgment go to the configured human route.

Operational change

What the team gets after the call

Not a promise of automatic outcomes. A clearer path from an incoming request to the next accountable step.

    Complete request details

    Dispatch receives the address, service type, timing, and summary selected in the flow.

    A booking option

    Routine requests can use real appointment slots when a supported provider is connected.

Two ways a home services call can move

These are grounded examples, not live simulations. Each step maps to a builder block you can configure, connect, and publish.

Routine service request

A homeowner wants to arrange a maintenance visit.

  1. 01

    Understand

    The agent collects the address, service type, preferred time, and contact details.

  2. 02

    Act

    It books a returned slot or creates a callback request, depending on the configured flow.

  3. 03

    Hand over

    Dispatch receives the structured request and conversation summary.

  1. Collect job details
  2. Check service FAQs
  3. Book or message
  4. Notify dispatch
Priority request

A caller reports a problem that the business marks as a priority category.

  1. 01

    Understand

    The agent follows the business-defined questions and does not give safety advice beyond approved content.

  2. 02

    Act

    It transfers to the configured number or triggers the chosen alert workflow.

  3. 03

    Hand over

    A person decides the response with the collected context.

  1. Collect the issue
  2. Apply priority rules
  3. Transfer
  4. Send an alert

Inside the product

A workflow your team can inspect.

The builder shows exactly where routine requests book and where priority requests move to dispatch.
