About This Product

Smith.ai provides 24/7 virtual receptionists combining AI with live human agents for web chat, phone answering, and lead intake. For HVAC contractors, it qualifies service requests, books appointments, and provides intelligent call analytics. The chat widget embeds into any website and transfers to live agents when AI assistance is insufficient.
