Sarah is software on your phone line, so coverage does not thin out away from the metros. What changes between New York City and the smallest town in the state is your drive time, not her answer speed.
New York numbers
Local numbers in 212, 917, 718, 716 — or keep the number you already advertise and we port it free.
Eastern time
Hours, after-hours flows and on-call escalation set to the clock your customers dial by, including holidays.
Busy season: the winter heating season and summer cooling load in the city
The weeks that decide your year are exactly when a phone line stops coping. Sarah has no queue and no busy signal.
New York: when the calls come, and why
New York is two businesses under one state: a city where access, buildings and supers dominate every job, and an upstate market with hard winters and ordinary driveways. Callers in both are unforgiving about being put on hold.
Peak load lands around the winter heating season and summer cooling load in the city — and that is precisely when an ordinary front desk starts sending people to voicemail. Sarah answers every one of those calls at once, asks your qualifying questions in the same order every time, and books into the slots your crews actually have.
How the answering service works- Every call, every hour. Nights, weekends and holidays are standard, not an upgrade.
- No queue. Twenty simultaneous callers get twenty first-ring answers.
- Booked, not messaged. The job lands in your calendar or field-service software during the call.
- Emergencies escalated. Your criteria decide what wakes your on-call phone.

AI receptionist in New York: questions
City jobs need building access details — will Sarah get them?+–
She asks whatever you specify: building name, super's contact, elevator or stairs, certificate of insurance requirements, parking. That is the difference between a completed job and a wasted trip in this market.
Do you have local numbers for New York?+–
Yes — 212, 917, 718 and 716 are New York area codes, and we can add a local number in the one your customers already dial. You can also port your existing number instead, at no charge.
Does Sarah work on New York time?+–
She works on Eastern time — your business hours, your after-hours rules and your on-call escalation, all set to the clock your customers dial by rather than to someone else's shift.
Does Sarah cover the whole state, or only New York City?+–
The whole state. Sarah is phone software, so there is no service radius: New York City, Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse, Albany and every small town between them get the same answer speed. Where your trucks go is your decision, not a coverage limit.
What does it cost in New York?+–
The same as everywhere in the US: from $350 a month including one channel, plus usage from 15¢ per minute of conversation, with setup included and no long-term contracts. There is no per-state pricing.
