The WhatsApp receptionist

Never lose a job to a missed call.Dobbie replies in 5 seconds.

You're on a job. The phone rings. You can't answer. By the time you call back, they've booked someone else. The second you miss a call, the caller gets a WhatsApp back — friendly, in your name, asking what they need. You come off the job to a lead that's ready to quote, not a voicemail to chase.

Hi! Sorry we missed your call — we're on a job. This is the team at Paisley Plumbing. What do you need a hand with? 👋
Hi, boiler's not firing this morning, no hot water
Got it. Can I grab your name, postcode, and is it urgent for today?
Jamie, PA1 2BX — yeah ideally today
Perfect Jamie, I've passed this straight to the team — they'll call you back shortly to book you in 🔧

85% of missed callers just ring the next number.

Every trade business has the same silent leak: the calls you can't take turn into jobs someone else does. You never even hear most of them ring. Here's what that quietly costs over a year.

What Dobbie is

An AI receptionist that liveswhere your customers already are.

No new app for them to download. No hold music. Just an instant, natural WhatsApp reply the moment a call goes unanswered — on the channel people actually read.

What it does

  • The caller hears back in seconds, not whenever you're free — so they never ring the next number
  • You skip the back-and-forth — it asks what they need, where, and how urgent, like a good receptionist would
  • You pick up your phone to a finished lead — name, number and job already captured
  • It never clocks off — evenings, weekends, up a ladder, mid-job — so no call goes unanswered again

Who it's for

  • Trades on the tools all day — plumbers, electricians, roofers, heating engineers
  • Salons, barbers and clinics whose front desk can't always pick up
  • Any local business already living in WhatsApp between jobs
  • Owners who'd rather read three ready-to-quote leads than chase three voicemails
The process

Three steps.Then it just runs.

01 / 03
Missed call detected.

A call comes in that you can't answer. The second it's missed, Dobbie fires a friendly WhatsApp to the caller from your business — no voicemail, no waiting.

02 / 03
AI qualifies the job.

Dobbie has a real conversation — captures the name, the need, the location and the urgency, the way a great receptionist would. Friendly, on-brand, never robotic.

03 / 03
Lead delivered to you.

You get a notification with the full enquiry, ready to quote. No transcription, no call-back lottery — just the job, captured and waiting.

"It catches them in 5 seconds — on the channel they already use."

And it's not another app for you to babysit. We build it, tune it to your trade, and run it for you — a safety net sitting quietly behind your phone, catching the money that used to leak away while you work. You don't manage anything. You just stop losing jobs you never even knew rang.

Investment

Cheaper than one lost job.Set up this week.

No new staff, no new system, no admin. We set it up, wire it to your number, and run it — you just read the leads. Start on the free trial and keep it only once it's paid for itself. One saved job covers months.

Want the phone answered too, or reviews chased automatically? Dobbie shares one brain with our Phone Receptionist and Google Reviews — add them later with zero rebuild.

Fair questions

The honest answers.Before you ask.

Will my customers know it's a bot — and hate it?

It opens as your business and texts like a helpful human, not a robot menu. People aren't annoyed — they're relieved someone replied in seconds instead of going to voicemail. You decide exactly how it sounds before it goes live.

Is this a hassle to set up?

No. We wire it to your existing number and tune it to your trade. Nothing for you to install, nothing to learn. It's live within the week — you just start getting the leads.

What does it actually cost me?

One flat monthly price, no setup fee, and inbound WhatsApp is free to run — so no per-message surprises. One saved job pays for months, because the alternative is handing that job to a competitor.

I'm a one-person business — is this overkill?

It's the opposite. When it's just you, you can't be on the tools and on the phone at once. This is the front desk you can't afford to hire — for the price of a couple of coffees a week.
