The AI Receptionist Alternative Built for the Trades
Other AI receptionists answer. Prybar answers, books, quotes, invoices, and follows up — all in one system.
AI receptionists are suddenly everywhere — and most are just voice bots that transfer callers. They charge per minute or per call, they don't know your pricing, and they hand off to you the moment a customer asks to actually book something.
Prybar is an AI receptionist that finishes the job: it answers texts and calls, books appointments into your calendar, sends quotes and invoices, and keeps every lead organized. One flat price. No per-minute meter.
