You Paid for the Lead. Make Sure Someone Answers It.

Thumbtack customers don't usually wait around. They're looking for someone now.

You're on a job. You're driving. You're working. You're talking to a customer. Meanwhile, a new Thumbtack lead is sitting there waiting for a response. By the time you see it, that customer may already be talking to another business.

SwiftReplAI gives your new leads an immediate response while you're busy running your business.

FAQ

Do I need to change how I use Thumbtack?
No. SwiftReplAI is designed to work alongside your existing Thumbtack workflow. You connect through Thumbtack's official sign-in, which you authorize yourself and can revoke anytime.
Does it send messages automatically?
Yes. You write one first reply, and every new Thumbtack lead gets that message in seconds, day or night. It can greet each lead by name.
Can I use my own pricing?
Yes. You write the message yourself, so you can put your rates right in it. Every lead gets the same message you wrote.
Can I take over a conversation? Can I pause automatic replies?
Yes to both. You can take over any conversation whenever you want, and pause automatic replies anytime.
How much does it cost? Is there a contract?
$29/month after the free 7-day trial. No contract. Cancel anytime from your dashboard.
When am I charged?
A card is required at signup, but you're not charged during the trial. Your trial starts the day you connect Thumbtack. If you never connect, the signup cancels itself and you're never charged at all. Want to see it work first? Watch the 67-second demo.
Is SwiftReplAI affiliated with Thumbtack?
No. SwiftReplAI is an independent product, not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Thumbtack (Thumbtack and Front Desk are their trademarks). It connects through Thumbtack's official sign-in (OAuth), which you authorize yourself and can revoke anytime.
