Keep electrical enquiries moving while you finish the job.
VeraDial answers your business calls with an AI receptionist. Give Vera your electrical services, coverage area and estimate policy so she can answer routine questions and collect the details you need for a callback. You review the conversation before agreeing a site visit, price or scope.
A business number and receptionist start at $14.99/mo. Vera Lite includes 100 answering minutes (about 170 calls) and 150 calling minutes monthly; Vera Plus adds outbound AI calling at $29.99/mo.
An installation leaves no room for a phone conversation
When you cannot safely answer, an estimate enquiry still needs a response. Configure Vera to collect the requested work and callback details, then review them when you have stopped working.
An EV charger request needs context
Ask whether the caller wants a home charger, where the property is and when they want a callback. Panel capacity, permits and installation suitability need your assessment; a phone intake does not settle them.
An inspector calls while you are at another site
A permit-office callback may concern an inspection window or missing information. Ask for the permit reference and the question so you can return the call prepared.
Explain the work you accept
Add residential repairs, EV charger enquiries or commercial work to your business profile, along with the areas you serve. Vera uses those supplied details when callers ask whether you can help.
Receive calls to your established business number
Carrier call forwarding can send calls from your established number to VeraDial. Forwarding transfers voice calls; texts sent to that original number stay with its carrier.
Read the request before calling back
The call transcript and summary help you distinguish a quote enquiry from a permit-office question. They provide a record to review, not proof that a job or inspection has been booked.
Try it yourself
Test three electrical enquiries
These are illustrative test conversations, not customer stories or measured business results.
EV charger estimate
Ask whether the business installs home EV chargers. Give a fictional service address and ask for a firm price. Check that Vera follows your estimate policy and captures a callback request instead of inventing installation costs.
Outside the service area
Name a town outside the coverage you entered. Check whether the answer matches your business profile and avoids promising an appointment there.
Permit-office callback
Use a fictional permit reference and ask the electrician to confirm an inspection window. Check that the reference and requested action are retained for your review.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can Vera answer electrical code or safety questions?
Use the receptionist for business information and message-taking. Set instructions to collect technical questions for a qualified electrician. Do not rely on AI intake for diagnosis, emergency response, code interpretation or confirmation that an installation is safe.
Does verifying my existing number move my incoming calls?
No. Verification lets you use an eligible existing number as your outbound caller ID. To have Vera answer incoming calls to that number, configure carrier forwarding separately. Caller-ID verification does not transfer its text messages.
Can Vera call a permit office on my behalf?
Vera Plus supports an outbound AI call that you start with a goal and relevant notes. Review the transcript and confirm any agreement with the office. There is no automatic permit-office queue or guarantee that an inspection can be booked.
What does an electrical contractor pay?
Vera Lite costs $14.99/mo and includes one number, 100 Vera-answering minutes (about 170 calls) and 150 calling minutes. For $29.99/mo, Plus includes 300 Vera-answering minutes (about 500 calls); its separate calling pool is 300 minutes monthly. Plus includes outbound AI calling, with a separate 100-minute monthly allowance. Business is $59.99/mo at introductory pricing with three lines and shared pools. Extra lines do not multiply allowances; compare the current plan details before buying.
Does verified caller ID guarantee that homeowners see a checkmark?
No. VeraDial-provisioned numbers use STIR/SHAKEN A-level attestation, but the receiving carrier and handset decide what appears. Attestation does not guarantee a particular display, removal of spam labels or a higher pickup rate.
