General contractorsGoal: Site visit booked

The AI receptionist that screens project calls while you're running the job.

You can't run a pour and answer a homeowner asking about an addition. Avoonta calls new inquiries back within seconds, finds out what they want to build, and books the site visit when it's a fit.

The problem

Why general contractors leads go cold.

Good projects go to the contractor who calls back, not the one who's busiest.

The busier you are, the worse your callback time gets. You're coordinating subs, walking inspectors through a framing check and chasing a late delivery. Meanwhile a homeowner with a real addition project hears nothing and calls someone else.

Plenty of inquiries are also wrong for you: a single door replacement, a budget that won't cover the scope, a start date next week. Sorting them by hand takes hours you don't have.

What Avoonta does for general contractors

Four jobs, done on every call.

Calls every project inquiry

Outbound

When a request lands, your AI Agent dials with the owner's consent and asks what they're planning: an addition, a basement finish, a whole-home renovation or a light commercial build-out.

Screens scope and readiness

Outbound + inbound

It asks about plans or drawings, permits, budget range, financing status and target start date, so you only drive to sites that match the work you take on.

Books the site visit

Outbound + inbound

It reads your Google, Outlook, HighLevel or Cal.com calendar during the call and offers times when you or your estimator are free.

Transfers the big ones

Live transfer

Set a rule for large or urgent projects and the call is transferred live to you, with a short summary before you pick up.

If faster screening helps you win a single extra project this year, that one contract could be worth many years of the plan.

Example only. Your inquiry volume, call length and project size will differ; work from your own numbers.

Limits and compliance

It screens. You estimate and sign.

Your AI Agent asks questions and books visits. It doesn't quote construction costs, interpret building codes or promise permit timelines; that stays with you and your licensed trades. It calls only people who asked to hear from you, between 8am and 8pm in their time zone, checks your do-not-call list, and says it's an AI assistant at the start.

General Contractors FAQ

Straight answers.

Can it turn away jobs that are too small?

Yes. You set the minimum scope or budget. Below it, the caller can thank them politely and suggest a handyman, or take their details for later.

Will it talk to architects and property managers too?

Yes. You can give it a separate set of questions for trade partners and commercial clients.

Does it handle sub and supplier calls?

It can answer inbound calls, take a message and transfer known contacts live to you or your project manager.

Can it speak Spanish with homeowners?

Yes. It speaks 30+ languages, and the AI disclosure is said in the language of the call.
