Extra calls captured in one week during a heat wave
"Last summer we had a week where temps hit 105. Our phones were ringing off the hook. Call Monkey caught 127 calls we would have missed. That turned into over $50,000 in AC repairs."

Frequently Asked Questions
How does call overflow forwarding work?
You set up call forwarding through your phone provider to kick in when your lines are busy or after a certain number of rings. When that happens, the call routes to Call Monkey AI, which answers just like your own staff would.
Can I use this just for overflow, not full-time coverage?
Absolutely. Many of our customers use Call Monkey AI only during busy periods. You configure when calls forward, so you stay in control. Only use it when you need it.
What if I have multiple phone lines?
No problem. You can set up overflow forwarding from all your lines. Call Monkey AI can handle multiple simultaneous calls, so even during major volume spikes, every caller gets answered.
What industries do you serve?
Call Monkey AI was built specifically for the trades by a home service industry veteran. All calls are answered the way a CSR would answer them within your trade. We currently specialize in plumbing, HVAC, electrical, roofing, pressure washing, house cleaning, pest control, junk removal, carpet cleaning, and landscaping.
How quickly will I know about overflow calls?
Instantly. You can get text messages and emails the moment a call is handled. For urgent calls, like emergencies, we flag them so you know to call back right away.
