Founding clients · September 2026
Every missed call is revenue you already earned.
Ignite AI builds and runs the front office for service businesses in the Upstate — answering, qualifying, and booking your inbound leads around the clock, so nothing slips through while your crew does the actual work.
That number is answered by one of our systems, not by a person. Ask it whatever a customer of yours would ask — here is what to try.
Our first 3 clients get the build free. We are new, and we would rather earn the case study than charge for it. What it costs to run after that depends on what we build you — every system is priced to the business it is built for, so you get your number in writing after the audit, before any work starts.
The problem
Your phone rings while your crew is on a roof.
Nobody loses leads on purpose. They leak out through three gaps that every busy service business has, and that nobody has time to stand over all day.
- Calls go to voicemail
- When the crew is on a job, the phone rings out. Most people who reach a voicemail greeting don't leave a message — they call the next name on their list.
- Web forms sit overnight
- An inquiry that arrives at 9pm gets read at 9am, if someone remembers to check. By then whoever replied first has usually already booked the job.
- Follow-up runs on memory
- The lead you meant to call back on Thursday is the one you've forgotten by Monday. Nothing is broken, exactly. It just quietly leaks.
What we build
One front office, fully managed.
Each system is built for your business, installed in days, and run by us month after month. You never have to touch the machinery.
AI reception
Calls, texts, and website chats get answered in your company's voice — including the ones that come in at 9pm on a Sunday. Missed calls get a text back automatically, and every conversation is written down.
- Missed-call text-back
- Website chat
- After-hours coverage
Lead qualification
Not every inquiry deserves your time. The system asks the questions you would have asked, scores each lead against your criteria, and puts the serious ones in front of you with the full context attached.
- Your qualifying questions
- Scoring and routing
- Full conversation history
Booking and follow-up
Qualified leads book straight onto your calendar. The ones who hesitate go into a follow-up sequence that stays politely persistent for weeks, so fewer deals die of silence.
- Direct calendar booking
- Multi-touch follow-up
- CRM sync and monthly reporting
How it works
Three steps, and no homework for you.
01
The audit
20 minutes · free
We go through how inquiries reach you today and where they stop — calls, forms, chats, after-hours. You leave with a written picture of where things are slipping, and what a build would cost you. There is no price list, because no two builds are the same shape.
02
The build
Live within days
We design the system around how your business actually runs: your services, your service area, the way you talk to customers. You review it working before it ever touches a real caller.
03
The run
Managed monthly
We host it, monitor it, and tune it as your business changes. Each month you get a report of what it handled and what it passed to you.
The 30-day guarantee
We agree on what “working” means for your build before we start, in writing. If your system hasn't hit that mark thirty days after it goes live, we refund your setup fee. The specific terms and what the refund covers are set out in our Terms of Service.
About
Local enough to shake your hand.
Ignite AI is run by Cai Benjamin out of Greenville, South Carolina. There is no offshore team and no ticket queue — when you call, you get the person who built your system.
We work with a small number of Upstate service businesses at a time, on purpose. Every build is designed, installed, and managed personally, which is why new projects are capped at 3 a month.
