Orvius is the AI receptionist for HVAC shops. It answers the calls you can't take, offers an open window from your schedule, and texts you the job.

Caller
Representative after-hours call for Summit HVAC. Orvius answers, the caller reports an air conditioner that stopped cooling and asks for same-day service, and Orvius collects the address 1842 Oak Street and callback number 512-555-0123. Orvius captures the service, urgency, address, callback number, and a proposed window of today between 4 and 6 PM, then texts the owner the job: same day, AC not cooling, the callback number, the address, and the proposed window awaiting the customer's confirmation. The customer confirms the window by text — Orvius never quotes a price or an arrival time.

Your rules



Settings: Your opening line
The first thing every caller hears, in your words and your shop's name.
Confirms upcoming appointments by text and assigns the obvious technician. Ties, emergencies, and safety calls still come to you.
Set when you're open, the work you take, and the ZIPs you serve. Leads outside your area stay on the board instead of booking.
Add your technicians once. Jobs are assigned to them and land on their phones with the address and notes.
