How it works

From first call to answered phone in five days.

1

Fit call

30 minutes. We look at your call volume and reviews, and tell you honestly which install pays for itself, or that none do.

2

We pick the tools

From our independently reviewed shortlist, matched to your phone system, CRM, and budget.

3

We install

Configured, connected, and tested with real calls. You do nothing but approve the greeting.

4

Handoff + care

Your team gets a 20-minute walkthrough. The care plan keeps it tuned and reports what it recovered.

Why trust us

We review this software for a living. We don't sell it.

Installs is run by the crew behind the Counter & Crew directory. Independent reviews of AI tools for local businesses: missed-call text-back, AI receptionists, review management. We test these tools in the field, publish what we find (including the losers) and install only what we'd put on our own phone line. Vendors don't pay for placement, and software fees go straight to them, not through us.

Questions owners actually ask

Before you book

Will the AI sound like a robot to my customers?

The systems we install either use human-backed AI or hand off to a person the moment the call gets complicated. You approve the greeting and the script before anything goes live.

What if I already have some of this software?

Then the install gets cheaper. On the fit call we audit what you have. Often the fix is configuration, not new subscriptions.

Do I need the monthly care plan?

No. You can take the install and run it yourself. We hand over every login and a written runbook. The care plan exists because most owners would rather never think about this again.

Every day the phone rings unanswered costs more than the install.

Book the fit call. Thirty minutes, no pitch deck, and an honest answer about whether this pays for itself in your shop.
