It's the first 90-degree day. Their AC just died. They're calling every HVAC company in town. Will you be the one who picks up?
Cira is an AI receptionist that answers every call and text 24/7, books jobs, and catches no-heat and no-AC emergencies — so you can stay on the job.
Up and running in minutes

You can't answer the phone with your hands in a condenser.
In HVAC, whoever picks up first usually books the job.
No heat in January. No AC in July. People don't leave voicemails — they keep calling until someone answers.
At $3,000+/month, a receptionist only makes sense with several trucks. And they don't work nights, weekends, or holidays.
That's when a dead furnace is worth the most — and when your competitors' phones are off too.
The HVAC company that answers its phone books the job — every time.
The Math
Emergency HVAC calls are your highest-margin work. A furnace out at 10 PM in January? That's $700+ for a single call.
Miss just 2 emergency calls per week and you're leaving $3,900+/month on the table.
Cira costs less than a single service call. It pays for itself the first week.

How It Works
Cira picks up every call in 2-3 rings. Sounds like a real person from your team.
Asks what's wrong — no heat, no cooling, a strange noise, or a leak — and how long it's been happening.
Knows "AC tune-up next week" is different from "no heat and it's 15 degrees." Real emergencies get texted to you immediately.
Emergencies: texts you right away. Regular work: sends your booking link and logs everything.
First heat wave of the year. An AC dies. They call you first — Cira answers. Your competitors miss it. You get the job.
You're swapping a compressor. Your phone buzzes: "New job - furnace won't start, tomorrow works." Done. Back to work.
Cira handles the 9 PM "no heat" calls and 2 AM "something smells like gas" calls. You pick which ones get you out of bed.
Spam calls and "just checking a price" get filtered out. Real jobs with real problems come to you.
Cira responds to incoming texts with AI-powered conversations — answering questions, qualifying jobs, and booking appointments via SMS, even when you can't pick up the phone.
Cira charges per conversation, not per minute. A busy July won't double your bill the way a live answering service does.
