AI Dispatch Service That Connects Customers with Field Teams

AI dispatch with AvaritCall answers incoming service calls, learns what the problem is and where the job is, and handles each request by the rules you set. Urgent calls go to your on-call staff, and the rest are recorded with the address, contact and access details your team needs. Requests are captured with the same details at night and during busy hours.

Turn Service Calls into Requests Your Team Can Act On

Routing a call, notifying your team and assigning a job are separate steps. AvaritCall routes and notifies; job assignment stays with your team and your field service software.

  • 24/7 Service Call Intake

    Calls are answered at night, on weekends and during busy hours. Each request is saved as a record your team can review in the morning.

  • Structured Request Details

    The agent collects the problem, service address, contact details and access notes you require, so your team doesn't have to call back for missing information.

  • Priority Rules & Escalation

    Requests are handled by the priority rules in the agent's instructions. Calls that need a decision from your staff are transferred to the person you choose.

  • Team Routing & Coordination

    Based on job type and service area, the agent transfers the call or records the request for the right team, and your team is notified in the dashboard or by email.

  • Verified Job Status Updates

    When your operations system exposes job status through an API, the agent can look it up during the call and share it, so fewer status calls reach your staff.

  • Dispatch Records & Human Handoff

    Every call is saved with a summary and its outcome. If a transfer isn't answered, a fallback number can be dialed, or the agent takes a message for a callback.

From Customer Call to the Right Service Team

  1. Understand the Service Need

    The agent learns why the customer is calling and which service they need.

  2. Collect the Required Details

    It completes the address, contact details and the questions you set for each job type.

  3. Apply Your Dispatch Rules

    The request is recorded, your team is notified, or the call is transferred, depending on your rules.

  4. Record the Action Taken

    The details, summary and outcome are saved in the dashboard and can be sent to your own system by webhook. Crew availability or arrival times are shared only if your system provides them.

  • Ready

    APIs & Workflow Automation

How Service Teams Use AvaritCall to Manage Dispatch Calls

An Example After-Hours Dispatch Workflow

  1. 11:20 PM, the call

    A property manager reports no heat in a building. The agent collects the address, unit numbers and access details.

  2. The rule

    No heat in winter counts as urgent in the company's rules, so the agent transfers the call to the on-call technician.

  3. The fallback

    The technician doesn't answer, so the agent dials the backup number. When that fails too, it takes a callback message and the summary goes to the team's notifications.

  4. The next morning

    The dispatcher sees the request, the transfer attempts and the callback note in the dashboard and assigns a crew in their own system.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an AI dispatch service?

An AI dispatch service answers service calls, collects the job details and routes each request by your rules. AvaritCall records every request with a summary and transfers urgent calls to your on-call staff.

How does AI collect and route service requests?

The agent asks the questions you define for each job type, such as the problem, address and access notes. It then records the request, notifies your team or transfers the call, based on the rules in its instructions.

Can AI dispatch handle after-hours calls?

Yes. The agent answers 24/7. You can send all calls or only after-hours calls to it using your carrier's or PBX's forwarding rules.

Can AvaritCall create service records or work orders?

It creates a service record in the AvaritCall CRM for every call. Creating a work order in your field service software requires a connection through its API, which you can build with webhooks and custom tools or with our team. AvaritCall does not assign technicians or calculate arrival times.

How does AvaritCall handle priority requests and human escalation?

It follows the priority rules you write in its instructions. Calls that match your urgent rules are transferred to the number you choose, and the agent does not give safety or technical advice beyond the information you provide.

Can AvaritCall connect to our field service software, CRM, or TMS?

Yes, through an API connection. There are no ready-made connectors for field service, TMS or WMS software, but the agent can call your system's API during a call and receive or send data through webhooks. Our team can build the connection for you.

What happens if the dispatcher or technician does not answer?

A fallback number can be dialed. If the transfer still fails, the caller stays with the agent, who takes a message and a callback request, and the summary is available to your team in the dashboard and notifications.

How much does AI dispatch cost, and what does setup involve?

You pay $0.08 per talk minute, billed per second, with no setup fee or commitment for self-serve accounts. Setup means writing your intake questions and rules, connecting your number and testing the flow. Custom connections to your field service software are scoped with our team.
