AI auto responder
The auto responder that actually closes the loop.
InstantResponse.AI answers new message leads from Yelp, Google Local Services Ads, and Thumbtack in seconds, asks the questions you would ask, quotes from your own rate card, and hands your team a job that is ready to schedule.
An AI auto responder replies to a new lead the moment it lands, instead of whenever someone gets back to the desk. Being present early keeps the conversation going while the customer is still deciding who to talk to. This page is the hub for how automated lead response works on each channel we support.
Pick your channel
One auto responder, every paid lead source you run.
Yelp Auto Responder
Answer every Yelp Request in seconds, quote from your real rate card, follow up on quiet threads, and see qualified leads per Yelp campaign.
Google LSA Auto Responder
Reply to Local Services Ads message leads instantly, and review LSA call recordings, transcripts, and AI summaries in the same dashboard.
Thumbtack Auto Responder
Get to Thumbtack requests before the other pros do, capture scope and timing, and keep every thread in one shared inbox.
Your questions, every time
Job type, address, urgency, photos, budget range. The AI asks what you tell it to ask before anything reaches your team.
Spam recognized and filtered
Solicitation and junk leads are marked as spam and never get a reply or a notification.
Clean handoff
When a job qualifies or a customer asks for a person, your team gets the full transcript by SMS, WhatsApp, or email.
How it works
Three steps to automated lead response.
Connect your lead channels
Link Yelp, Google Local Services Ads, and Thumbtack to one dashboard.
Load your playbook
Services, rates, coverage area, hours, tone, and the rules the AI must never break.
Turn it on
Every new message lead gets an answer in about 10 seconds, day or night, and your team only sees the ones worth working.
Works with
The lead sources and tools you already use.
Answers
AI auto responder questions
- An AI auto responder is software that answers a new lead the moment it arrives, without anyone on your team touching the phone or keyboard. InstantResponse.AI reads the incoming message from Yelp, Google Local Services Ads, or Thumbtack, replies in your voice within about 10 seconds, asks the qualification questions you configured, and hands the conversation to your team once the job looks real.
- A canned autoresponder sends the same first message to everyone and then stops. This one holds a real back-and-forth: it answers follow-up questions using your services, rates, hours, and coverage area, confirms a preferred day and time when you set it up that way, and escalates to a person the moment a conversation goes outside your rules.
- Message leads from Google Local Services Ads, Yelp Request a Quote, and Thumbtack are live today, plus Google LSA call recordings, transcripts, and AI summaries when that call data is available in the connected account. Your team gets notified by SMS, WhatsApp, or email.
- Yes. Each platform supports responding to leads through its business tools, and replies go out under your business account exactly as they would if a person typed them. Nothing is scraped and no unofficial workaround is used.
- Only from the rate card you load. If a job falls outside what you priced, the AI collects the details and hands the conversation to your team instead of inventing a number.
- Yes. Leads that look like spam or solicitation are recognized, left unanswered, and marked so they never reach your team's inbox.
- Most businesses are live in under an hour. You connect the lead channels you already use, load your services, prices, and hours, and set the do and don't rules. Our team can do the setup with you.
- Starter is $99/mo for one location, Growth is $199/mo for up to 3 locations, and Scale starts at $499/mo. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial, unlimited leads, and no per-message fees.
