AI voice agent for tradespeople: your hands on the job, your phone still answered.
An AI voice agent for tradespeople answers when your hands are full, sorts out what's urgent and transfers it to the right person, then notes the other requests for you to call back. Sayelo does this 24/7 for plumbers, electricians, locksmiths and heating engineers, on your current number, from €39 excl. VAT/month.
It replaces neither you nor your office staff: it takes the calls you cannot take, and you manage it from WhatsApp.
from €39 excl. VAT/month afterwards · no commitment · the AI announces itself on every call
Four trades, the same reflex
Separating what can't wait from the rest.
In emergency repairs, the same phone gets the evening emergency and next month's quote request. The agent tells them apart as soon as it answers, with questions specific to your trade.
Plumbers
Active leak, water damage, no hot water: transfer. Bathroom renovation: quote appointment.
Electricians
No power in the home, burning smell: transfer. Bringing wiring up to standard, EV charging point: quote to schedule.
Locksmiths
Locked out, key broken in the lock: transfer. Cylinder replacement, security door: quote.
Heating engineers
Boiler breakdown in the middle of winter: transfer. Annual service, replacement: appointment in your calendar.
Emergencies
Assessing the emergency, transferring it to the right person.
You write your rules as you would explain them to an apprentice. The agent applies them on every call, day and night, and announces itself as an AI at the start of the conversation.
- It asks the questions that decide it: what is happening, since when, the address and access.
- The emergency is transferred to the right number: you, a partner, a technician or the on-call line, according to each one's time slots.
- Everything else is noted for you to call back, with the name, number and request, or booked as a quote appointment.
- It never promises a timeframe or a price that you haven't written down for it.
Between jobs
Alerts and daily report on WhatsApp.
You don't open an app on a job: the information comes to you, where you already read it.
- An alert when a call needs action, with the number to call back
- Every morning, the daily report: calls from the last 24 hours, with those needing action at the top
- A voice note is enough to close the line on a public holiday or add a transfer; nothing sensitive without your “Approve”
WhatsApp is for you, the tradesperson: your customers continue to call your number. AI receptionist you can manage on WhatsApp →
Your number
The number on your vans and quotes stays the same.
You keep the number your customers know: by forwarding calls to your agent, for example only when you don't answer, or by porting it (in France). Both are available on all plans, and a new number is also included if you prefer a dedicated line. Keeping your number: the guide →
Pricing and setup
From €39 excl. VAT/month, in 5 minutes.
The Solo plan is designed for the self-employed; the higher plans add minutes, SMS, agents and simultaneous calls, up to €279 excl. VAT a month. 14-day free trial, no set-up fees. In France, your agent finds your business from its name or SIRET number (elsewhere, you give your VAT or company number and registered office address) and reads your website; you then add your emergency rules and transfers.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our answers.
Can the voice agent recognise an emergency?
It applies the rules you give it, written in everyday language: active leak, total power cut, locked out, no heating. It asks the questions needed to decide, then transfers the call or notes it for a callback.
Who does it transfer urgent calls to?
To the number you choose for each situation: you, a partner, a technician or an on-call line. Each number can be offered only at certain times, for example in the evening and at weekends.
I'm on a job: how am I notified?
By a WhatsApp alert when a call needs action, with the number to call back, by the email summary sent after every call, and by the daily report every morning.
Do I have to change the number on my van and my quotes?
No. You keep your current number, by forwarding it to your agent or, in France, by porting it, on all plans. A new number is also included if you prefer a dedicated line.
Can it book quote or servicing appointments?
Yes, in your Google Calendar, Microsoft 365 or Cal.com, in the slots you leave open, with a double-booking lock. The customer receives a confirmation SMS, then a reminder the day before.
What happens if several customers call at the same time?
The agent takes several calls at once depending on the plan: 1 with Solo, 2 with Essentiel, 5 with Pro and 10 with Business.
Will it promise a call-out time on my behalf?
No. It only commits to what you have written for it: your areas, your hours, your terms. For anything else, it notes the request and passes it on to you.
How much does an AI voice agent cost for a tradesperson?
From €39 excl. VAT a month with the Solo plan, designed for the self-employed. No set-up fees, no minimum term, and a 14-day free trial.
