Tree Surgeons + Stripe
The AI receptionist for tree surgeons that writes straight into Stripe.
You're up a tree with a chainsaw. We're on the phone with the next big job.
How it works
Take a deposit on the call. Foan reads your Stripe products, generates a one-time payment link mid-conversation, and texts it to the caller before they hang up.
Why tree surgeons miss calls.
Storm-damage callouts are time-sensitive. And lucrative.
There's been a storm overnight. Branches everywhere. One of those branches is a 30-foot limb across someone's driveway and they can't get the kids to school. They start ringing tree surgeons. Two go to voicemail. The third is you.
You're up another tree with a chainsaw and a harness. Phone in the truck. They go to the fourth name on the list, who answers, books them in for the afternoon, and turns up with a chipper. £1,800 job, gone.
Foan picks up in two seconds. Asks for the address, the size of the tree, what kind, whether it's near power lines. Quotes a ballpark from your standard rates. Books a survey or a same-day quote visit. Texts you the address so you can call back from the rope.
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 Stripe automatically. No copy-paste from notepad. Whatever Stripe 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 tree surgeons using Stripe?
Yes. Storm-damage callouts are time-sensitive. And lucrative. Foan answers calls live, qualifies them by asking the questions a tree surgeon would ask, and writes the outcome into your Stripe automatically. There's nothing for you to copy across.
How does Foan + Stripe 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 Stripe 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 Stripe?
Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect Stripe via OAuth (one click), pick a UK phone number, point your existing business line at it. Foan starts answering on the next ring.
