What is Blue Collar Beaver?

It's an AI phone receptionist and job-ops system for small trades businesses — HVAC, plumbing, electrical and similar shops running one truck up to a small crew. It answers your calls, books jobs onto your schedule, prices work, and handles the follow-up that piles up after dark: reminders, invoices, review requests, and social posts.

Do I have to change my phone number?

No. You keep your number and forward it to the line we provision for you. Customers keep calling the number they already have, and you can stop forwarding whenever you want.

What happens when someone calls?

It picks up, asks what the job is, where they are, and when they're available, using the services, hours and FAQs you configured. It books the job on your schedule and texts the customer back. Every call turns into a lead you can see, with a full transcript, so you can check exactly what was said.

What if it can't handle a call?

The call still becomes a lead with a transcript, so nothing disappears. If a call is missed, it can automatically text the caller back so you don't lose them while you're on a job.

What does it cost?

There are no plans or seats. You pay what it actually cost to run your account that month, plus a flat, locked markup. A slow month costs less than a busy one, and a month where you use nothing costs nothing. Adding people to your crew does not change the rate.

Which social platforms can it post to?

Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube, plus your Google Business Profile — where it can also pull in your reviews and help you reply to them.

Does it work with QuickBooks?

Yes. Customers, invoices and payments sync both ways with QuickBooks Online, so you're not entering things twice.

I already use other software. Can I bring my customers over?

Yes. We can import your customer list from ServiceTitan, Jobber or Housecall Pro, or from a CSV file, and we'll flag likely duplicates before anything is created.

Can I use Blue Collar Beaver on my phone?

Yes and no. Blue Collar Beaver is a web app, so it works in any browser on your phone, including uploading job photos from the field. We don't have dedicated iOS and Android apps yet, but you'll be the first to know when we do.

Is my data secure?

We take data security seriously:

  • All data is encrypted in transit and at rest using industry-standard encryption.
  • We never sell or share your personal information with third parties.

How can I delete my data?

We delete user data 30 days after a subscription has ended, for whatever reason.

We retain only the minimum information necessary to protect the business. This includes:

  • User email address
  • IDs and names of social media profiles

See our Privacy Policy for the full detail, including how to revoke access to connected accounts.
