Answering Service
Replace voicemail with a useful conversation that answers routine questions, captures the request, and prepares your team for the next step.
The job to be done
An AI answering service that replaces voicemail with useful conversations and structured lead intake. The goal is not simply to answer—it is to turn the conversation into a useful next step for the caller and your team.
What Tinylawn Handles
You stay focused on crews, customers, and quality work in the field. Tinylawn answers questions, captures lead details, books the intake, and passes qualified lead details to the software you already use.
Every call gets answered by a natural-sounding AI that asks the right questions, explains your services, and captures the details you need to follow up.
Books qualified leads onto an intake calendar you control, then hands the details to your field service software, so jobs stop slipping through phone tag.
Get lot size, square footage, aerial imagery, and property notes with each lead so you can prep a quote before you drive out.
Your AI receptionist is always available to answer calls, 24/7. No missed opportunities, no lost leads.
When a caller hangs up right after the greeting, Tinylawn sends a one-way text with your booking form link so they can still request service.
Every call is recorded with a word-for-word transcript and AI summary. See exactly what the customer asked for, whether they mentioned specific concerns, or if they called about a property you already quoted.
Teach the AI to answer questions like "What's your hourly rate?" or "Do you do fall cleanups?" through your dashboard. The AI references your answers during calls so customers get accurate information.
Get text and email notifications when you receive a new lead or someone books an appointment. You can customize which events trigger alerts.
Handles calls in English and Spanish, so you do not lose a lead because of a language barrier.
Get a custom booking form for your website that allows customers to book appointments directly.

Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about setup, billing, and how Tinylawn fits into your operation.
Voicemail waits for a message. Tinylawn has a real conversation, asks the qualification questions you configure, and can book a qualified intake appointment while the caller is still engaged. You get structured lead details instead of an unstructured recording.
It greets callers with your business context, asks green-industry questions that matter—property details, services needed, timing—and filters noise like spam robocalls. Qualified leads can be scheduled on your calendar and pushed into your CRM so your crew spends less time on phone tag and more time on revenue work.
The cost depends on the value and close rate of the opportunities you miss. A missed estimate request, recurring account, or project inquiry can matter more than the raw call count. Tinylawn keeps those calls organized so you can measure the opportunities that previously reached voicemail.
Yes. Calls are answered within seconds with a consistent script and tone you control, 24/7 including when you are on a mower or at a job site. That reliability projects a larger, more responsive operation and keeps high-intent homeowners from moving down their list to the next company.
