AI Receptionist — Small Business
Cadre is your AI receptionist. It handles customer inquiries, books appointments, and qualifies leads 24/7 — for less than $2 a day.
$49/mo total. No setup fee. No contracts. Cancel anytime.
The Problem
You're on a job. A potential customer texts your website. No reply. They find someone else in 30 seconds. That's revenue you'll never see.
You're in the field, on a roof, under a sink. Leads contact your website between jobs. By the time you're free to reply, they've booked someone else.
Customers look for services at night and on weekends — when you're closed. No one's there. They move to the next result on Google.
A part-time receptionist costs $2,500–$3,500/month. A traditional answering service costs $200–$1,200/month with slow, generic responses. There's no good option — until now.
How It Works
No developers, no lengthy setup. You add one line of code to your website (or we do it for you) and Cadre is live that day.

Every lead that contacts your site gets an instant, intelligent reply — 24/7, no manual effort.
04 — You close
See all conversations in your dashboard. Jump in when a lead needs a human touch.
Cost Comparison
The math is obvious. Cadre does the repetitive work for a fraction of the price — so your team (or just you) can focus on actual work.
