Fred for garage doors.
Catch every stuck-door and broken-spring call, book installs and tune-ups, and flag the dangerous ones around the clock, an AI agent that captures the job and never coaches a homeowner through a spring under tension.
Every call, captured and routed.
A spring snaps and the door won’t budge with a car trapped inside, right before work. Fred answers, recognizes the safety risk, captures the address, and gets your team moving, while opener repairs, tune-ups, and new-door quotes get qualified and booked without tying up your office.

Server-side guardrails
The guardrails you manage in the admin, enforced before Fred replies.
Every garage door deployment runs the Home Services & Construction pack. This is the compliance panel you manage in the admin: the industry pack automation, your own custom rules, and the hard limits Fred holds no matter how it’s asked. All of it is enforced in code before a word reaches the visitor. Not a suggestion in a prompt a clever question can talk around.

Hard limits
The boundaries Fred holds, no matter how a visitor asks.
- Never gives DIY instructions for electrical, gas, structural, or asbestos work
- Always says regulated work requires a licensed contractor
- Never guarantees a lifetime fix or warranty
Your custom rules
Layered on top of the pack, unique to your business. No developer required.
The pack is the starting line, not the ceiling. Every deployment can add its own rules in the admin, block, warn, or just log on any phrase you choose, in either phase, with your own response message. They run right alongside the pack.
- BLOCKoff-topic requests that aren’t your business
- WARNbefore anyone is quoted a price over chat
- LOGwhen a visitor mentions a competitor by name
These industry rules stack on top of the always-on baseline, your region’s privacy and crisis rules, and macro overlays. See how the guardrail layers work
Know which job to call back first.
Every conversation lands in your CRM with a lead score, a purchase probability, and a plain-language summary. The new-door install and the commercial overhead-door job get called before the remote-not-working question, so your team works the highest-value job first instead of guessing.
Garage door questions.
What happens when a spring breaks and the car is stuck inside?
Fred recognizes broken-spring and trapped-vehicle language, captures the name, address, and phone, tags it as urgent, and fires your notification so someone responds fast. It will not tell the caller to force the door.
Will Fred tell someone how to replace a spring?
No. Garage-door springs are under high tension and dangerous to handle. Fred books the service call rather than walking anyone through spring or cable work.
Will Fred quote a price?
Fred explains how your pricing works and qualifies the job, but it won’t commit to a final number sight-unseen. It books the estimate or service call so your tech prices the real door.
Does it handle new door installs?
Yes. New-door and opener installs, plus commercial overhead doors, are qualified separately and flagged as higher-value leads so they reach the right person quickly.
