Fred for plumbing.
Catch every burst-pipe call, book drain cleanings and water-heater swaps, and qualify repipes around the clock, an AI agent that captures the job, flags the flood, and never walks a homeowner through work that needs a licensed plumber.
Every call, captured and routed.
A pipe bursts at midnight and the homeowner calls whoever picks up. Fred answers, recognizes the emergency, asks whether the water is shut off, captures the address, and gets your team moving, while drain cleanings, water-heater service, and fixture installs get qualified and booked without tying up your dispatcher.
What Fred does
- Answers hours, service area, and the work you take on
- Flags burst pipes, no-water, and sewage backups the moment they come in
- Books drain cleaning, water-heater service, and fixture installs
- Qualifies repipes, sewer-line jobs, and commercial accounts
When Fred hands off to you
- A sewage backup, biohazard, or suspected gas-line issue
- Pricing changes, change orders, or scope adjustments
- A complaint, warranty claim, or water-damage dispute
- Anyone asking to speak with a plumber
What Fred won’t do
- Walk a homeowner through gas-line, main-line, or structural work
- Promise a permanent or guaranteed fix
- Quote a final price sight-unseen
Pre-configured for plumbing: emergency leaks and burst pipes, no-water calls, sewage backups, drain cleaning, water-heater repair and replacement, fixture installation, repiping, sewer-line service, and commercial plumbing.
The water’s rising. Fred’s already moving.

Server-side guardrails
The guardrails you manage in the admin, enforced before Fred replies.
Every plumbing 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 gas, main-line, electrical, or structural 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 whole-house repipe and the burst-pipe emergency get called before the slow-drain question, so your team works the highest-value job first instead of guessing.
Plumbing questions.
What happens on a burst-pipe call at 2am?
Fred recognizes burst-pipe, flooding, and no-water language instantly, asks whether the water is shut off, captures the name, address, and phone, tags it as an emergency, and fires your immediate notification by SMS, Slack, or phone so someone responds fast, even when the office is closed.
Will Fred tell someone how to fix it themselves?
No. Fred can share basic safety steps like shutting off the water, but it will not walk a homeowner through gas-line, main-line, or any work that needs a licensed plumber. It books the service call instead.
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 conditions.
Does it handle commercial accounts?
Yes. Commercial plumbing is qualified separately, property type, decision-maker, and the service needed, and flagged as a high-value lead so it reaches the right person quickly.
