AI calling and booking for solar installers
Solar leads are valuable and expensive to generate, and they cool fast. Eight Eye answers every call, qualifies homeowners on roof, usage and ownership, and books a consultation while interest is high.

Why solar installers miss calls
Solar installers spend a lot to generate interest through ads, referrals and events. When those prospects call back and reach voicemail, much of that spend is wasted. Existing customers call too, about monitoring alerts, production questions and service. Both kinds of calls deserve a quick, accurate answer.
CallRail’s 2025 analysis of 1.1M leads found home-services businesses miss 14% of calls (source: CallRail 2025 lead analysis). Every one of those calls can be a job that goes to a competitor.

Planning season for Massachusetts solar
Massachusetts homeowners often research solar in winter and spring to install before summer. Eight Eye answers those inquiries year-round, so your consultants spend their time with qualified homeowners instead of chasing voicemail.
What we set up for your solar phone line
Before launch we load the towns you install in, the products you offer, including panels, batteries and backup power, your qualifying questions, and the general information you want shared about incentives and financing. We also set rules for existing customers reporting monitoring alerts or production drops, so service calls reach your service team instead of sales.
How Eight Eye’s 24/7 AI answering and follow-up fits your business
Eight Eye works alongside your crew and your office. You forward calls after hours, when lines are busy, or all the time, and you keep your existing number. Every call opens with the recording and AI disclosure Massachusetts requires (M.G.L. c. 272 §99). After each call you get a short summary by email (and by text once texting is approved), and jobs land on your calendar, or straight in Jobber or Housecall Pro on the Growth and Pro plans.
The phone is only the start. On Growth and Pro, open estimates and leads get a polite follow-up so they don’t go quiet (by text once texting is approved), and on Pro, customers get a short request to leave an honest review after the job or visit.
We build, test, launch and manage everything for you, with a target of live in 7 days from your intake form, then review call transcripts every week so the answers keep getting better. Plans are month-to-month; see pricing. To see what unanswered calls could be costing your techs in jobs, try the missed-call calculator, or get a Free Business Audit of how easy you are to find and reach online.
