Built for locksmiths who answer with a pick in hand.
AI receptionist and missed-call text-back for locksmiths. When you're mid-rekey or on a lockout across town, Helm answers the call you missed, finds out what they're locked out of and where, and texts you a qualified lead you can get to fast.
A lockout is the most urgent call there is.
Someone locked out of their house at night or stuck in a parking lot isn't leaving a voicemail, they're calling down the list until a live person answers. If you're already on a job with your hands in a lock, that call goes to the next locksmith. Helm answers instantly, finds out what they're locked out of and where they are, and sends you the lead so you can head straight there.
How Helm works for locksmiths.
No new phone system, no app. Helm sits behind the number you already have and goes to work the moment a call goes unanswered.
The call comes in
A customer calls and you can't pick up because your hands are in a lock. Helm catches it through conditional call forwarding, so nothing changes on their end.
Helm answers in seconds
Before they move on to the next company, Helm texts the caller back (or answers by voice) and starts the conversation.
It asks the right questions
Helm finds out what's wrong, gets the address, and asks for a couple of times that work, one question at a time. It never quotes a price or promises a time it can't keep.
You get a lead ready to book
A clean summary lands in your phone and inbox: name, problem, address, timing, and the full conversation. You call back and book the work.
From missed call to booked job.
A real exchange in Helm's voice, and the lead that lands in your phone when it wraps.
Delivered by text and email the moment the conversation wraps.
Helm for locksmiths, answered.
Yes. When your hands are in a lock or you're on a lockout across town, Helm answers the call you miss and texts the caller back within seconds. It finds out what they're locked out of (a house, a car, a business), or whether they need a rekey, a broken lock fixed, or keys made, gets the address and whether they're on site, and sends you a qualified lead by text and email. It sits behind your existing number, so nothing changes for the caller.
Helm treats a lockout as top priority. It fast-tracks the address and whether they're standing at the door now, so you can head straight over, and commits to getting someone out fast without promising an exact time. If someone is in danger, like a child or pet locked in a hot car, it tells them to call 911 first.
Yes. Helm asks what they're locked out of or what they need done, and captures whether it's a lockout, a rekey, new locks, or a copy, so you show up with the right tools instead of making a second trip.
No. Helm doesn't quote work it hasn't seen. It captures the job so you can confirm the price on site, and tells the customer that up front. It won't commit your calendar either; it gathers where they are and how soon they need you, and leaves the decision to you.
You keep your number. Helm uses conditional call forwarding so unanswered calls route to it automatically, with no hardware or app, and it works with Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, and US Cellular. Pricing starts at $75/month for Capture and $249/month for Convert with the 24/7 voice receptionist. Billed monthly, no contract.
