An AI receptionist for contractors and builders
Last updated · Mars Network Services, Tampa Bay and Palm Coast, FL
When the owner is on a job site and the office is empty, Mara answers the phone. She answers homeowners, subs and suppliers from your approved facts, books walkthroughs into your calendar, texts the right person on your crew, and transfers a call live when it needs you. Phone-only Mara starts at $199 a month with no contract.
Mara was built with custom home builders in Palm Coast, Florida, and installed by Mars Network Services, the IT and low-voltage company that already wires their homes.
The calls she handles
- New leads. A homeowner asking if you build in their area, what you build, and how to get started. Mara answers and books the first meeting.
- Subs and suppliers. Deliveries, which site, who to call. She routes them to the right person.
- Current clients. Messages for the project manager, texted with the details so nothing waits in a voicemail box.
- After hours and weekends. The calls that used to ring out while everyone was home.
Phone only, or a kiosk in the office
Most crews start with phone-only Mara. If you have a model home, showroom or design center, a kiosk greets visitors, checks them in and texts whoever is on site. The kiosk and the phone share the same approved answers.
Questions
Can Mara give estimates?
No. She books the walkthrough or estimate visit and collects the details you ask for. She only quotes what you have approved, and never invents a price.
Can she send a call to my superintendent or office manager?
Yes. You choose who gets which calls, and she transfers live or texts that person.
We don't have an office. Does that matter?
No. Phone-only Mara needs nothing installed, from $199 a month, month to month.
What about our showroom or design center?
A countertop kiosk greets clients and subs, checks them in and texts the right person. Kiosk plans start at $449 a month with the kiosk included.
