Where a locksmith loses work
Lockout callers are standing outside a door. They call the first number they find, and if nobody answers they call the next one within seconds. Clear, upfront prices matter too, because customers have learned to be wary of locksmith ads.

HomeAdvisor (Angi) locksmith cost guide 3What it does for a locksmith
It isn't an answering service. Calls are one job out of many. It's an AI Office Manager that does the office work itself, around the clock, and checks with you on anything that matters.
- Answers every lockout and gives an honest priceIt asks your questions: home, car or business, the address, the lock type, whether anyone or a pet is inside. It gives your upfront price range, tells the caller your arrival time and texts your name and van description so they know who's coming.
- Flags the urgent onesA child or pet locked in a car, or a stove left on inside, goes straight to you, and the caller is told to call 911 if anyone is in danger, by your rules.
- Books rekeys and lock changesIt books rekeys for new homeowners and landlords between tenants, asks how many doors and which brand, and quotes from your price list.
- Quotes commercial workSay the doors, the hardware and the price: a master-key system, panic bars, keypad or card access. It writes the quote, sends it to the property or office manager and follows up until they decide.
- Checks who you're opening forIt reminds callers you'll need ID or proof of residence before opening a home or car, so there are no surprises at the door.
- Invoices and chases paymentThe invoice goes out when you say the job's done, through your own Stripe, QuickBooks or Xero, and commercial accounts are billed on their terms with reminders until it's paid.
- Orders hardware and key blanks"Six Schlage deadbolts in satin nickel, a box of SC1 blanks and a set of rekeying pins for pickup at 8." It sends the order to your distributor and tells you when it's ready.

How it handles a lockout, then a commercial quote
Two example conversations, written to show how it works. They are not recordings of real customers. The first is a homeowner at 9:55 pm. The second is you, the next day, after a site visit.

Questions locksmiths ask
Is this just an answering service?
No. Answering calls is one thing it does. It's a 24/7 AI Office Manager that does the office work itself: it dispatches lockouts with an upfront price, books rekeys and lock changes, quotes commercial hardware, invoices and chases payments, orders hardware and key blanks, handles email and texts, and tells you what it did.
Will it quote a price on a lockout?
Yes, the range you give it, and it says the locksmith confirms before starting. Clear prices on the phone build trust with callers who have read about bait-and-switch locksmith ads.
How does it handle a child or pet locked in a car?
By your rules. Most locksmiths have it tell the caller to call 911 if a child or animal is in danger, and send the call straight to them. It never treats it as a routine booking.
Can it check that the caller lives there?
It tells every lockout caller you'll need ID or proof of residence before you open the door, and notes anything unusual for you. The final check is always yours, on site.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You connect your own Twilio or Telnyx account and your business number runs through it. We don't sell or provide numbers, so the line stays yours.
Will customers know they're talking to an AI?
If anyone asks, it says so plainly. When a caller wants you personally, it takes the details and lets you know right away, or puts them through if you've said to.
How does setup work?
Tell it how you work in plain words, out loud or typed: your lockout and rekey prices, your service area, your hours, your service area and what needs your OK. Every plan includes a 1:1 setup call, booked right after checkout: in about 30 minutes we connect your email, calendar, invoicing and phone line with you and check it works the way you do. After that, you change anything by telling it.
Which plan should I pick?
Most owners pick Growth. You get 3 seats, so your office person and a second locksmith each get their own login, and when a busy month pushes past your capacity you can purchase additional usage on the spot (Starter requires an upgrade). Starter is the entry plan for trying it alone at low volume. Locksmiths with several vans who hand over the whole office get the most from Scale: 10 seats, the highest capacity and the fastest tier. You can move up any time: your new month starts that day, and the unused part of your old plan comes off the first charge.
