Wakeman

Wakeman is an AI answering service aimed at plumbing, HVAC, electrical, roofing, and restoration businesses. The website says it can answer missed calls, ask callers about the job and address, and send the business a text summary. It also describes forwarding missed calls to the service, a dashboard for call and job follow-up, and escalation workflows for emergencies. The homepage offers an interactive example call and advertises a 14-day trial without a credit card, with paid plans starting at $149 per month. It mentions integrations such as Jobber for booked jobs, while the exact workflow depends on configuration. Wakeman is intended to handle routine inbound calls when staff cannot answer, not to replace a human for every customer interaction. A limitation is that automated call handling can misunderstand callers or miss nuance; businesses should test emergency routing and confirm local legal requirements for recording and disclosure before deployment.
