I'm a solo locksmith. Is Recevia overkill?

No. Solo operators are the strongest fit. The AI answers every call while you're on a job, captures a full structured ticket, and pings you with one tap to accept. You stop losing lockouts to voicemail.

Can it dispatch by proximity, not just availability?

Yes. Proximity is a first-class ranking signal. For emergency and urgent tiers, the ranking engine biases toward the closest available tech, then skill, then workload.

What happens if no one accepts the cascade?

After your acceptance window expires on the last tech, the job escalates to you with full context — customer, location, vehicle or building, and urgency. You decide whether to take it, re-cascade, or follow up.

Can the AI collect a car make and model on the call?

Yes. Car lockouts, key replacements, and re-keys all have their own intake. Year, make, model, key type, and location are captured before the call ends and attached to the job.

Does it work with my cell phone as the only line?

Yes. Forward your cell to your Recevia number when you're on a job, or all the time. The AI answers, the job lands in your app, and you pick it up when you're clear.

Where locksmiths leak revenue

The phone is the job. And the job keeps slipping.

You are the tech. You are the phone.

Owner-operator locksmiths can't answer while picking a lock. Every missed call is a customer calling the next guy in the Google pack. Voicemail is a slow leak your business can't afford.

Almost everything is an emergency.

Lockouts, lost keys, re-keys after a break-in, car-key replacements in a parking lot. Nobody books a locksmith for Tuesday. They need it now, and they'll take whoever shows up first.

Proximity decides the job.

A customer three blocks from your second tech will not wait while your nearest guy finishes a 40-minute car lockout. The second tech isn't yours if you can't dispatch in real time.

Recevia answers every call, creates the job, and sends the right tech. You keep working.

How it works

From ring to dispatched in under a minute.

Four steps. No one at a desk. No one reading voicemails. No one texting “who can take this?”

Why Recevia

Built for how locksmiths actually run.

Not a generic answering service. A ranking engine that knows your certifications, your routes, and the tier of every call.

Answers while you're on a job.

The AI picks up every call, even when you're picking a cylinder. Customer, vehicle or building type, address, and urgency captured before the call ends.

Proximity-first ranking.

For a 100%-emergency trade, proximity wins. The cascade sends the offer to the closest tech first, then the next, with a tight acceptance window.

Owner-in-the-loop without owner-on-the-phone.

Auto-Assign mode pushes the job straight to the closest tech. Manual-review mode lets you approve the AI's pick while you're on another job. Your choice, per tier.

Works for solo operators.

No team? No problem. The AI still answers, captures the job, and sends it to your own phone as a structured dispatch — with address, vehicle, and urgency already filled in.
