AI Answering Service for Pest Control
Every missed call is a job you already paid for. Voice Assist answers your phone in a natural conversation when you cannot — nights, weekends, and while your techs are under a house.
What it does
Voice Assist (also called an AI receptionist or AI voice agent) greets the caller, asks what pest problem they have, collects their name, phone number, and address, takes messages and appointment requests, and can text the caller back automatically if a call is missed or dropped. It works 24/7 and asks the same intake questions every time.
What it costs
$95 per month, which includes 50 AI-answered calls, then $1.50 per additional call. Only calls the AI actually answers and handles count. There is no per-minute billing and no contract lock-in; you can cancel with 15 days' notice.
For comparison, a traditional human answering service for pest control typically runs $1 to $2 per minute or $150 to $400 per month, with quality that varies by operator. Our guide to pest control answering service costs breaks down human, AI, and in-house side by side.
How it works with your lead plan
If Pest Leads Pro runs your lead generation, Voice Assist sits on your tracking number: leads we send that you cannot answer get answered anyway, captured, and delivered with full details instead of dying in voicemail. Every AI-answered call shows up in your call log with a transcript and an intake summary.
It layers onto any plan — exclusive pay-per-lead packages or a managed account. If you are still choosing a lead model, see how pay per lead pricing works. For the deeper walkthrough of AI answering itself, read the 2026 AI answering service guide.
