Carpet cleaning
An AI receptionist for carpet cleaners with the truck-mount running.
Callers want to know what counts as a room, whether pet stains come out, and how long until they can walk on the carpet. Your assistant answers from your price list and policies, counts rooms, stairs, and upholstery pieces, and books the cleaning. Soaked carpet and damage complaints go straight to your team.
An AI receptionist for carpet cleaning companies answers calls, texts, and chats about carpet, upholstery, rug, and tile cleaning while your techs are on jobs. InsertChat’s assistant explains your per-room pricing and drying times, collects rooms, stairs, pet spots, and furniture details, books cleanings on your calendar, and flags flooded carpet and damage complaints for your team.
EXAMPLE WORKFLOW · Phone call
Book a pre-Thanksgiving clean with the pet spots noted
A homeowner calls in mid-November, in the pre-holiday rush, while both vans are out on back-to-back jobs.
“Family’s coming for Thanksgiving. Can you clean three bedrooms, the stairs, and a sectional? The dog had a few accidents in the hallway.”
02
Count it up
Collect the rooms, the number of stairs, the sectional’s size and fabric, and where the pet spots are.
03
Book before the holiday
Offer the open times left before Thanksgiving, explain your drying time so the family can plan, and send a reminder before the visit.

Your team sets the boundaries
Soaked carpet from a leak goes to your team with the restoration referral you list, along with any complaint about returning stains or damaged furniture.
Illustrative scenario. Answers depend on your sources; actions depend on your connected tools and permissions.

Can an AI receptionist price carpet cleaning by the room?
Yes, from your price list. Add what a room costs, how you count large rooms, halls, and stairs, and your minimum charge, and the assistant explains the price for the rooms the caller lists. It collects pet spots and upholstery pieces too, so your tech isn’t surprised at the door. InsertChat does not send quotes or invoices.
Will it promise that a stain will come out?
No, and it shouldn’t. Your guarantee wording sits in its knowledge, so callers hear exactly what you promise for pet stains, red wine, or old spots. Questions about a specific stain your techs need to see are recorded with the location and the customer’s description for the technician.
How much does an AI receptionist for carpet cleaners cost?
Pro costs $98 per month and includes one number, three team seats, three AI assistants, and monthly credits. Calls round up to whole minutes. If your phones peak before Thanksgiving and in spring, choose a plan from those weeks using the estimate on the pricing page. Annual billing is ten monthly payments for twelve months.

Yes. When a customer calls or texts to move a cleaning the assistant booked, it offers another open time and updates the appointment. Reminders go out 72 and 24 hours before each visit, which gives customers a chance to move it early.
From the fabric guide you add, yes, such as which cleaning codes you take and which you don’t. In your website chat, customers can attach a photo of the fabric tag. An antique piece or a fabric you haven’t listed goes to your technician with the details.
Yes. Landlords and property managers can call, text, or email with the unit address and move-out date, and the assistant books the cleaning in an open slot. Give them their own number for $10 a month to see their requests apart from homeowners.
Whatever you tell it. Add your usual drying time, how fans and air conditioning speed it up, and when furniture can go back, and the assistant answers the same way every time. Add a handoff rule for carpet still wet after that window, and those calls go to your team.
