AI phone answering for the trades
Stop losing jobs to missed calls.
An AI phone agent answers when you're on a roof, under a sink, or elbow-deep in a panel — captures the job and texts you instantly. Built for roofers, HVAC, plumbers, and electricians who can't drop what they're doing to pick up.

Testimonials
Owners who stopped missing calls
“We were missing calls all day while on jobs. Starboard's agent picks up every one and texts me the lead instantly. Booked three jobs the first week we wouldn't have gotten otherwise.”
Marcus T.
Tilden Roofing
“After-hours calls used to go straight to voicemail and half never called back. Now they get a real answer and a callback time. My customers actually feel taken care of.”
Dana R.
Riverside HVAC
“I can't answer the phone when I'm under a sink. The AI captures the job details and texts them to me before I've even put my tools away. It's like having a receptionist for a fraction of the cost.”
Eli M.
