Electricians + ServiceM8
The AI receptionist for electricians that writes straight into ServiceM8.
Big jobs get awarded to the first electrician who feels trustworthy. We sound trustworthy.
How it works
Foan plugs into ServiceM8 so every call becomes structured data in the system you already use. No re-typing, no copy-paste, no "I'll add it later."
Why electricians miss calls.
Panel upgrades and full rewires need a real human voice on the first call.
It's a Tuesday morning. A homeowner's RCD just tripped for the third time this month. Their letting agent has told them they need a new consumer unit before the next inspection. They're now ringing four electricians, three of them voicemail.
You're up a ladder running cable for a different job. Phone in your van. By the time you check it that evening, the homeowner has already booked someone else for Saturday. The job was £1,200, plus a likely full rewire for £6,000 down the line.
Foan answers the phone in two seconds, in a voice that sounds calm and capable. Asks for the postcode, what's tripping, when it started. Books the survey. Texts you the booking before the homeowner has finished telling Google Reviews about you.
What you get on day one.
-
Every call answered in two seconds. No queue, no missed-call voicemails, no "we'll get back to you tomorrow".
-
Calls flow into ServiceM8 automatically. No copy-paste from notepad. Whatever ServiceM8 expects, Foan writes.
-
UK phone number included. Take a new line or forward your existing business number. Either way, Foan picks up.
-
Text or WhatsApp the second the call ends. You're on a job, you don't pick up — Foan does the work and tells you what was said.
Ready in 10 minutes.
Plans from £49/mo. Cancel any time. Number forwarding works on the existing line you already pay for.
Frequently asked
Does Foan really work for electricians using ServiceM8?
Yes. Panel upgrades and full rewires need a real human voice on the first call. Foan answers calls live, qualifies them by asking the questions a electrician would ask, and writes the outcome into your ServiceM8 automatically. There's nothing for you to copy across.
How does Foan + ServiceM8 compare to hiring a receptionist?
A part-time receptionist costs around £1,800/mo and only covers business hours. Foan picks up 24/7 in two seconds, never misses a call during peak, and starts at £49/mo. Everything ends up in ServiceM8 the same way a human assistant would log it — except instantly and without typos.
What if a caller asks a question Foan doesn't know the answer to?
Foan is configured with your business hours, services, prices and FAQs the moment it's set up — we scan your website automatically. For anything genuinely unknown, the agent admits it doesn't know, takes the caller's contact details, and pings you so you can ring back. Better than voicemail, every time.
How quickly can I get this live with ServiceM8?
Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect ServiceM8 via OAuth (one click), pick a UK phone number, point your existing business line at it. Foan starts answering on the next ring.
