AI PHONE RECEPTION FOR ELECTRICIANS
CTnode. identifies the call, checks for the safety details you approve and sends anything needing judgement to a person without offering electrical troubleshooting.
The receptionist records what the caller observes, avoids troubleshooting and escalates under the electrician's configured rules.
Example Electrical. Dave the AI here, and this call is recorded. Tell me what you can see happening.
The power keeps tripping in the kitchen at 220 Queen Street, Brisbane.
Is there any smoke, sparking or immediate danger?
No smoke or sparking. It just trips again.
Thanks. I won't give electrical troubleshooting advice. What number can the electrician reach you on?

THE SAME RULES
The product does not change by trade. Your configured services, hours, fixed travel/setup allowance and escalation contacts decide what happens next.
Choose the fixed travel or setup allowance that fits your work. It leaves space between appointments; it does not calculate driving routes or journey times.
Choose how much notice a caller must give. Anything tighter than that goes to the owner instead of silently entering the diary.
"Unit 1, 50 Adelaide Street" is never heard or written back as "150". Ambiguous forms are read back to the caller, and the booking note spells the qualifier out in full.
The receptionist follows the working hours approved for your business. Out-of-hours requests follow the fallback you chose during setup.
Calls can be handled in independent sessions, so one conversation does not have to finish before another can begin.
Set a business-wide limit for normal bookings when calendar space alone does not reflect what the team can complete in one day.
Choose how far ahead the receptionist may book, so callers cannot lock in work beyond the period your business has approved.
QUESTIONS
Yes, and deliberately so. Your receptionist introduces itself by name and says it is AI in the opening line — ours is called Dave — and gives the configured recording notice. Callers who want a human are escalated to you.
We agree a fixed travel or setup gap with you and apply it around busy jobs. That gap is not a driving-time calculation. Distant, uncertain or exceptional routes can be sent to you for review.
It will not guess on anything that matters. It is explicitly blocked from giving legal, health, licensing, disposal, pricing, timeline or safety advice. In those cases it takes a message or escalates to you.
Both are answered. Each caller gets their own session rather than a queue.
It follows the trade-emergency rules agreed for your business and alerts the owner numbers you configure. If someone describes an immediate threat to life or safety, it directs them to emergency services rather than treating it as a normal trade booking.
It books the services and appointment types approved during onboarding. Quote-first, safety-sensitive or unusual work is routed to an inspection, a callback or owner review instead.
Yes — audio and a transcript. Audio is kept up to 30 days and transcripts around 90 days, and callers who object are handled accordingly. The detail is on the privacy page.
In your Google Calendar and in your owner dashboard. The platform database is the record of truth, so nothing depends on the calendar staying reachable.
Yes. Multiple owner notification numbers can be configured, and the escalation order is agreed during onboarding.
No. We set it up against your existing hours, services and escalation contacts before it takes a single call.
It depends on your business rules and provider access. We configure the system with you, test the main scenarios, and only move to live calls once the agreed checks pass.
