Brownsville AI, answered

The Brownsville market
What the caller already knows about the city
Brownsville holds 59,839 occupied homes, and not every repair call arrives during business hours. A line that only answers during the day leaves the after-hours calls for whichever business picks up next.
Cameron County's median home dates to 1992. If your callers ask about older houses and the systems in them, those answers belong in the knowledge base in your own words, not a generic trade script.

Trades in Cameron County
Repair calls and project calls need different answers
If a pipe bursts at night or an HVAC system quits on a weekend, the call does not wait for business hours. You decide which of those calls ring the on-call tech, which get the first open slot on the calendar and which get a text with the address and the problem.
Cameron County has 41 residential remodelers. A remodel caller usually wants to describe the work and find a time to walk through it, so the receptionist asks which rooms are involved, where the house is and when the owner can meet, then books the visit.

Phone work in the field
Two phone projects, one live line and one custom build
For a plumbing company, after-hours emergency calls were landing in voicemail; the card shows the custom AI phone system that replaced that. Lithium built Smart Doors LLC's garage door website first and later added the AI receptionist to its phones.

FAQ
What Brownsville callers will ask
Still curious?
Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].
What if a caller will not talk to an AI?
Someone on your list answers it. You choose the transfer numbers, whether that is the on-call tech, the main line or a person-on-request option, and the receptionist passes along what the caller said. Callers who never ask for a person are qualified and booked, or sent a text.
What does the receptionist cost, and what does a hire cost?
$179 a month, with no contract and no setup fee. A human receptionist runs $3,500 or more a month; the AI line answers evenings, weekends and holidays for the same $179.
How long does setup take?
Most setups take days, not weeks. The long part is your side: writing down the rules and the answers you want. Once those are in, Lithium builds the voice and knowledge base, and you test the line before it goes public.
Who takes the emergency call at night?
At 2 a.m., the line picks up and runs the urgency questions you wrote. Your rule then chooses the ending: the on-call tech's phone rings, the first open slot is held, or the details go out by text. The plumbing project on the card was built for a night like that.
What can custom automation take off our desk?
Anything repetitive after the call qualifies. That includes new-customer details copied into the CRM, a confirmation text, a review request or a note in the shared sheet. Those projects are scoped after a free discovery call, and most custom builds take one to two weeks.
