Automation for contractors: quote requests, missed calls and follow-ups
For renovation and construction contractors. Every quote request gets a reply in under a minute, a missed call becomes a text, and unanswered quotes get followed up at the right time. No price ever goes out in an automated message.

What we automate
Four tasks that come back every week
These are the four scenarios of the contractor demo. It plays them over a typical week, with a fictional company and clients, and estimates what they would be worth to you from your own numbers.
-
Quote requests
Every quote request gets a reply in under a minute, even on a Sunday night, with a short form for photos, dimensions and budget. You show up to the visit already knowing the project, and requests outside your line of work are sorted out before you hit the road.
- In the demo (fictional)
- Reply in under a minute
- Visit booked without a call
- Photos and budget before the visit
-
Missed calls
On a job site, the phone often rings out. Every missed call gets a text within a minute: the client describes the project in writing, and you call back when your hands are free, before they call the next contractor on Google.
- In the demo (fictional)
- Client kept instead of lost
- Text within a minute
- First on site, ahead of 2 competitors
-
Quote follow-up
An unanswered quote is often a client who’s hesitating, not one who said no. Kalman follows up on every open quote at the right time, in your name, and tells you as soon as a client is ready to talk.
- In the demo (fictional)
- $39,600 contract signed
- 6 follow-ups without lifting a finger
- Hesitation cleared up in 1 call
-
Job-day updates
The day before the work starts, the client gets a reminder of what to prepare. That morning, they know when the crew will arrive, even with traffic. Fewer “when are you coming?” calls, fewer locked doors at 7:30 AM, and a reassured client from start to finish.
- In the demo (fictional)
- Site ready when the crew arrived
- Delay announced ahead of time
- 0 “when are you coming?” calls
The automations connect to your website form, email, calendar and phone line when they allow it. The audit checks what is possible with yours before any quote.
How it works
From first call to autopilot
-
Step 01 · Pre-flight
Audit
We look at your typical week, at your office or by video, and find the three tasks that cost you the most time.
-
Step 02 · Flight plan
Plan
Within three business days: what to automate, with which tools, the hours you’d get back estimated from your own numbers, and the price.
-
Step 03 · Takeoff
Build
We build in your accounts, test on your real cases, then show you and your team what you need to know.
-
Step 04 · Cruise
Autopilot
We measure again at 30 and 60 days, the same way as at the start, and adjust.
Your clients
The rules we follow for a contractor
-
No price in an automated message
Prices stay in the quotes you write. Automated messages ask for photos, offer a visit or follow up, never more.
-
Your clients talk to your company
Every message goes out in your company’s name, in French or English depending on the client.
-
Missed calls: depends on your line
The text after a missed call depends on your phone provider. The audit checks what your line allows before promising it.
-
You approve what matters
Every message can wait for your OK before it goes out. The simplest ones go out on their own when you decide they should.

FAQ
Questions from contractors
Do I need a new phone number?
Not necessarily. It depends on your provider: the audit checks what your line allows.
My requests come from the website, email and Facebook. Does that work?
Yes: they can land in one place, with the same quick reply, when those tools allow it.
How much does it cost?
Every project gets a fixed-price quote after the audit. The five founding clients get a reduced rate, locked for 12 months.
Are the clients in the demo real?
No. The demo uses a fictional company and clients. No real data is used in it.
