Does Emma know my trade?

The short answer

Yes. Emma ships trained for more than 20 residential trades. Before her first call, she knows a burst pipe from a quote request, and storm season from spring cleanup. Then she learns your business from you: your services, what customers call them, and what never to promise.

From Outfitter AI · Updated October 11, 2026

Who it’s for: Any residential trade, from HVAC, plumbing and electrical to roofing, pest control, pool service and junk removal.

How Emma gets to know your business

  1. Day one, she already speaks your trade. An HVAC agent isn’t a plumbing agent.
  2. Front Desk calls you for a setup interview of about ten minutes, like a new hire on day one.
  3. Hang up, and what she learned shows on your screen in plain words, along with anything she wasn’t sure about.
  4. Notice something off? Call your own line and tell her. She reads it back, you say yes, and the next caller gets the new answer.

Your customers’ words, not textbook words

Each trade has its own dispatch reality, seasons and customer language. Emma starts with yours. In the setup interview she asks what customers call your work. A caller who says it their way still gets understood. If you clone your voice, the script you read carries your trade’s vocabulary. Words like “sump” come out the way you say them.

Your website starts the same way. Emma builds it from what already works for sites in your trade.

What it costs

The setup interview and any changes you make by calling her are free. Front Desk calls with your customers are 35 cents a minute from your tokens.

What it won’t do

An example

A basement contractor mentions in setup that customers say “the window thing” when they mean egress. A week later a homeowner calls about “that window thing.” Emma knows what they mean and takes the details.

Common questions

Which trades is Emma trained for?
More than 20 residential trades. They include HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing, remodeling, landscaping, lawn care, cleaning, pest control and pool service.
Does she know my prices?
Only the ones you give her. She never quotes a price you didn't give her, and never invents one.
How do I correct her?
Call your own line. She knows it's you. Tell her the change, she reads it back, and once you say yes it applies to the next call.
Does she keep learning?
Yes. She keeps learning every time you talk to her, and there's a settings screen that shows exactly what she knows.
