For pest-control services
A receptionist that books the visit while the customer is still on the line.
Scandum · 2 September 2026
What it costs today
The call comes when the customer has just seen the problem, and if nobody picks up they ring the next name on the map. The ones who do book forget the follow-up treatment, and the annual contract lapses without a reminder.

Monday 10:30: two calls at once during the rush; both are answered, one books, one asks for the termite package price and gets it from the knowledge hub.
- 03
Wednesday: the follow-up treatment from last month is due. The coordinator reminds the customer and moves it to Saturday when they ask.
- 04

Every evening: calls answered, visits booked, treatments due, contracts renewed.

What it says
One sentence, in the caller's language.
నమస్కారం, మీ ఇంట్లో గత నెల చేసిన ట్రీట్మెంట్కు ఫాలో-అప్ ఈ వారం రావాలి. శనివారం ఉదయం పది గంటలకు టెక్నీషియన్ రావచ్చా?
Hello, the follow-up to last month's treatment at your home is due this week. Can the technician come on Saturday at ten in the morning?
The same sentence is said in Hindi or English when the caller opens in one of those. Every call begins with a one-line disclosure that it is an AI assistant.
Questions
Questions pest-control services ask.
Can it quote prices for treatments?
Yes, from the price list you keep in the knowledge hub, by pest and by size of home. It never invents a price; if a job needs an inspection first, it says so and books the inspection.
Does it handle follow-up treatments and annual contracts?
Yes. The coordinator reminds customers when a follow-up is due and moves it when they ask; renewals go out before a contract ends. Both write to the customer's record.
What does it cost for a small service with one van?
From ₹3,000 a month for the receptionist, with talk time beyond the included minutes at ₹3 a minute. Compare it with the calls you miss while on a job.
What we don't claim yet
We do not claim a booking rate for pest-control calls. The proof page carries the method; a rate is published once a service has been live for a full quarter.
