Built for tree service companies

Built for tree crews who are up in the canopy, not by the phone.

AI receptionist and missed-call text-back for tree service companies. When you're roped into a tree or running a chipper, Helm answers the call you missed, finds out what the job is, and texts you a qualified lead.

After a storm, every tree call comes at once.

When a storm drops limbs across a neighborhood, every homeowner with a branch on the roof calls at the same time, and you're forty feet up with a saw running. Miss the call and they move to the next crew. Helm answers the ones you can't, figures out whether it's an emergency removal, a takedown, or a trim, and sends you the lead.

How Helm works for tree service companies.

No new phone system, no app. Helm sits behind the number you already have and goes to work the moment a call goes unanswered.

01

The call comes in

A customer calls and you can't pick up because you're up in the canopy. Helm catches it through conditional call forwarding, so nothing changes on their end.

02

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.

03

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.

04

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.

Sorry we missed your call, this is Timberline Tree Service. What's going on?
A big limb came down on my roof last night.
Is it still up there, or did it come the rest of the way down?
Still on the roof, looks heavy.
Okay, we should come take a look at that. What's the address?

Helm for tree service companies, answered.

Yes. When you're up in the canopy or running a chipper and can't get to the phone, Helm answers the call you miss and texts the caller back within seconds. It finds out whether it's an emergency limb, a full removal, trimming, or a stump, gets the address and a couple of times they're free, and sends you a qualified lead by text and email. It sits behind your existing number, so nothing changes for the caller.

That's when it earns its keep. Helm answers calls in parallel and replies within seconds, so a wave of storm calls doesn't end with half of them going to the next crew. Capture covers up to 100 conversations a month; Convert at $249/month adds an always-on AI voice receptionist and unlimited SMS conversations for the weeks after a storm when the phone won't stop.

Helm treats it as a priority and fast-tracks the name and address so you can respond quickly. It commits to getting out fast without promising a specific time. If a tree is on a power line or someone is hurt, it tells them to call 911 or the utility first.

No. Helm doesn't quote a tree it hasn't seen, since size, access, and how close it is to a structure all change the job. It captures what they're dealing with so you arrive knowing what to expect, and confirms the number on site. It won't commit your calendar either.

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.
