ELECTRICAL · INNISFIL
You're up on a ladder with one hand on a breaker and the phone in the truck. Someone's calling about a panel quote. It'll go to voicemail and they probably won't leave one.
Tuesday at 9am you're loading the truck in Innisfil. The first call of the day is a service upgrade for a 1970s home with aluminum branch wiring. You're already booked solid by the time it's transcribed and sent back to your inbox. The phone's ringing in the truck cab and you're 14 feet up on a ladder.
The 4pm call is a homeowner whose breaker keeps tripping in the kitchen. You can't take it. By 6:30pm there's an after-hours job too, a burning smell from a panel, lights flickering. Two missed calls, one half-day of revenue, no way to triage from a ladder.
Avidra is a text-back system that runs the second you miss a call. The caller gets a real reply, not a voicemail loop. You get a structured lead with the basics filled in.
The Tuesday morning call still happens. You still can't answer mid-job. Now the homeowner gets a text in under five seconds asking the basics. By the time you're back in the truck the lead is qualified and sitting in your inbox.
Two setup paths. Path one is forwarding: your existing business number stays the front door, calls ring to your phone, and Avidra only catches the unanswered ones. Path two is direct: the Avidra number is the front door, AI picks up every call live, and it transfers to your cell when the caller asks for a human. Most one-truck shops use path one. Larger shops with reception coverage usually move to path two.
Free tier includes both. AI voice and SMS text-back are both in the $0 floor, so neither pickup mode costs extra.
Free for 14 days. No card to start. Plans after the trial run from a flat monthly rate, not per-call. Most electricians pay less per month than the value of one recovered job. See the pricing page for current numbers.
Avidra handles the intake call, the back-and-forth qualifying, and the relay messages you ask it to send to your customers. The phone is the part it owns. The work past it stays with you and your existing tools.
The text won't quote a panel swap. It won't promise an inspection slot. It won't argue with a homeowner over the phone about whether their flickering is a loose neutral or a bad breaker. The intake gets you to the panel faster. Everything after that is yours.
The math on your missed calls
73% of homeowners don't leave a voicemail. They call the next electrician on Google.
Avidra catches them in 4.2 seconds.

You probably recognize these patterns by now. Flickering lights on one circuit after a renovation. Double tap breaker that won't stay on after a storm. Panel swap quote for a pre-1950 home with knob and tube. GFCI outlet that keeps tripping after a bathroom remodel. Each one is a job you'd close if you could pick up the phone.
After-hours patterns are tighter. The urgency is higher and the timeline is shorter. Tree branch on a service drop after a wind storm. Outlet melted around the plug. Whoever answers first books it. Everyone else gets the voicemail tone.
Year-round demand. Small spikes in summer for EV chargers and patio circuits, and again before holidays for outdoor lighting.
Most electricians can predict the peaks. The trick is keeping pickup steady through them. Avidra doesn't surge-price during your busy weeks and doesn't go quiet during the slow ones.
Setup is a 10-digit phone number and a short script. You forward your missed calls to the Avidra number that gets assigned at signup. You edit the default intake script to match how you talk to a new lead. That's the whole setup.
Most owners run their first real test inside an hour of signing up. The honest test is to miss a call on purpose from a friend's phone and watch what happens. The text fires. The follow-up questions land. You see the lead summary on your phone.
Speed is the whole game. A caller who got voicemail and then got a confirmation email twenty minutes later has already booked the next number on the list. A text-back inside five seconds reads as a real reply. The caller responds while they're still mentally on the call. The human callback then lands into a warm conversation, not a cold one.
ESA permits and inspections are required for almost all permanent wiring work in Ontario. Master license is held by the contractor, and the inspection schedule is part of the job timeline.
Can it capture photos of the panel?
MMS replies with photos are captured and attached to the lead summary.
What about emergency calls like a burning smell?
Burning-smell and arcing-panel descriptions trigger a 'shut off the main and call 911 if you see flames' message before the booking conversation.
Can it ask about the panel amperage in the intake?
Yes. The intake includes a 'do you know your service size, 100A or 200A' question. Many homeowners answer it correctly.
Can I disable booking outside business hours?
Yes. After-hours messages can be set to capture-only with a next-business-day callback.
What if a permit is required, will it disclose that?
Yes. Permit notice can be included in the intake message for your region.
Run the trial on your own line for two weeks. The first missed call you catch usually pays for the year. Avidra reads the same whether the call comes from Innisfil or from the next market over.
