AI calling, booking & follow-up · Massachusetts
AI calling and booking for towing companies
Every towing call is from someone stuck on the side of a road. Eight Eye answers 24/7 on Growth and up, usually on the first ring, captures the location, vehicle and destination, and alerts your driver, so the caller isn’t left calling the next company.

Why towing companies miss calls
Towing runs around the clock, and drivers can’t answer the phone while hooking up a car or driving. Stranded drivers want to know how fast you can get there and how much it costs. If they reach voicemail, they call the next tow company. Fleet and motor-club accounts depend on fast, reliable answering too.
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.

Winter storms on Massachusetts roads
Snow, ice and nor’easters bring waves of spinouts and breakdowns on Massachusetts roads, often all at once. Eight Eye answers every call at the same time during a storm, so each caller is logged and dispatched in order instead of getting a busy signal.
What we set up for your towing phone line
Before launch we load your service area, base rates, the drivers on each shift and how to reach them, your impound lot hours and release requirements, and your motor-club and fleet accounts. We also set rules for highway calls, accident scenes and private-property tows, so each caller is handled the way your dispatcher would handle them.
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.
