Plans start at $49/mo · Keep your number
Live the same day
Hours, services, a number. Most businesses are answering before close.
Same price 24/7
From $49/mo. No night surcharge.
A human when it matters
True emergencies ring the on-call phone you set.
A cleaning answering service books new cleans while you're mid-job. Elody is an AI receptionist for cleaning companies. It captures home size and service type, books the visit on your calendar, and texts you the details so a Friday move-out does not go to whoever picked up. Plans start at $49/mo.
New customers call while you're mid-clean
You can't stop a kitchen to take a quote call. If they hit voicemail, they book the service that picked up.
Bad option 01
You answer with gloves on
Awkward for you, and the customer hears a vacuum, not a business.
Bad option 02
Voicemail
A move-out clean for Friday will not wait on a callback.
Bad option 03
A service that only takes messages
You still have to call back and find a slot.
