How it works

You run the business. We run the AI.

STEP 1

Tell us how you work

A short questionnaire about your calls, your customers and your software.

STEP 2

Get a plan and a price

A written proposal with what we'll build and a flat setup and monthly price.

STEP 3

We build, test, and go live

We test every setup with real-world calls before a customer ever hears it, then keep tuning it every month.

The full process

Why Stoker

A local shop, not an app.

The big AI receptionist companies sell you a login. We sell you a working setup and someone to call.

We're local

Based in Newtown. We'll come to your shop, see how the phones and the office actually work, and build around that.

One person accountable

You deal with the people who built your setup. No ticket queue, no call center.

We use it ourselves

We run our own real estate and underwriting businesses on the same kind of tools we build for you.

Built for you

No one-size plan. Your hours, your prices, your service area and your rules, set the way you want them.

Why the name

Someone has to keep the fire going.

On steamships and in city boiler rooms, the stoker fed the fire through the night so everything else kept running. Nobody saw the work. Everybody felt it when it stopped.

That's the job we do for your business. The calls get answered, the follow-ups go out and the paperwork moves, whether you're on a job, at dinner or asleep.

Questions

What owners ask us first.

Will my customers know they're talking to AI?

If a caller asks, it says so. Most callers just want the job booked. We set how it introduces itself, what it sounds like and what it says, and you approve all of it before it goes live.

What if it gets something wrong?

It only says what you've approved. When it doesn't know, it takes a message instead of guessing, and anything urgent goes straight to your phone. Every call is logged so you can see exactly what was said.

Do I have to learn new software?

No. We set it up, run it and adjust it. You get the bookings, the messages and a plain monthly report.

Do I keep my phone number?

Yes. In most setups your calls forward to the assistant only when you don't pick up, or after hours. Your number, your customers.

What does it cost?

Every business is different, so we price each one after we understand it. You get a one-time setup fee and a flat monthly fee, and you see the full price before anything is built.

How long does it take?

Most phone setups are live in about two weeks. Texting takes as long as the phone carriers need to approve it, usually a few days to a few weeks.
