An AI receptionist for garage door companies

You're under a car with a torsion spring under load when the phone rings. You can't answer it, and you shouldn't try. CallerIQ picks up instead, finds out what the caller needs, and gets a callback number so you can follow up once the door's back on track. No new number, no new hardware, just your calls forwarded to an AI that never puts a caller on hold.

A REAL CALL

A homeowner calls at 6:45am because their garage door won't open and their car is trapped inside.

Caller: My door won't open and my car's stuck inside, I need someone out here. CallerIQ: I can get that to the team right away. Can I get the address and what's happening with the door? Caller: It's 42 Larkspur Lane, the door came off track on one side. CallerIQ: Got it. Is your car currently blocking the door, or can you get it out another way? Caller: No, it's trapped, I can't get to work. CallerIQ: Understood. What's the best callback number, and I'll pass this straight to the team.

The owner's summary shows the address, the door symptom, that a vehicle is trapped, and a callback number, ready before the owner's even out from under the last spring.

The calls you're losing

Why garage door companies miss calls

Your hands are full of spring tension

Mid-install with a torsion spring under load, you can't safely stop to grab the phone. That call could be a stuck door, a quote, or a scheduling question, and it goes straight to voicemail while you finish the job right.

Doors break on a schedule you don't work

Doors fail when people leave for work or come home, which means the busiest ring times are the hours you're off the clock. Those after-hours calls pile up unanswered until morning.

A missed quote call is a lost install

Someone shopping for a new door calls three companies and books with whoever answers first. If your phone rings out, that install just went to a competitor.

Spam calls eat time between real customers

Parts distributors and lead-gen callers ring your business line right alongside real customers, and sorting them out costs you attention you don't have to spare.

How it works

Three steps, one dial code.

01

Forward your missed calls

One dial code sets up conditional call forwarding with your carrier. Your number stays your number; only the calls you don’t answer route to CallerIQ.

02

CallerIQ answers

It greets the caller in the voice and greeting you chose, finds out who they are and what they need, and captures the details, using only the business information you gave it.

03

You get the summary

Who called, why, and what to do next, in a clean report you can read in seconds. Real callers get through; spam doesn’t.

What your callers hearThe caller hears a friendly greeting with your business name, not a generic hold message. CallerIQ says plainly that it's an AI answering for you, then asks what's going on, whether it's a stuck door, a repair, or a quote. It never pretends to be a person on your crew, it just gets the details right and keeps the caller from hanging up frustrated.
And the spam?Garage door companies get hit with parts distributor pitches and lead-gen calls trying to sell you leads you never asked for. CallerIQ spots the pattern, turns those calls away, and can happily waste a scammer's time instead of yours. Real customers still get through every time.
