Grizzly AI Dispatcher answers your phone when you can't — mid-rekey, driving to a call, or asleep after a long night. It talks to your customer like a real dispatcher, captures the lockout and location, texts you the complete job, and gives an honest arrival window instead of a voicemail beep. Built by a working roadside operator who loses calls the same way you do.

How it works
Nothing about how you work changes. Your number rings your cell exactly like today — the AI only steps in on the lockout calls you were going to lose anyway.
Rings your cell first. If your hands are on a lock cylinder, a natural-sounding AI dispatcher answers instantly — captures the location, the vehicle or door, and what they’re locked out of, one question at a time.
A locked-out customer who hits voicemail calls the next locksmith. If they hang up, they instantly get a text and the AI finishes the intake over SMS — the job never dies in voicemail.
The full job — address, lockout type, callback, notes — hits your phone the second intake ends. After-hours calls queue quietly on the dashboard instead of waking you at 3am.
A dead-simple job board on your phone: new → dispatched → en route → on scene → completed, plus a full call log of every lockout that came in.
A professional locksmith website with an online “Request Service” form wired straight into the same dispatch pipeline.
It reminds a customer locked out in a dark lot to stay somewhere safe, notes when to verify the caller is authorized to enter, and never quotes a price you didn’t set.
A real call
Dispatcher: Thanks for calling — the owner's finishing another job, so you've got his dispatch assistant. I can get you locked in, in about a minute. What's going on?
Caller: I'm locked out of my car at the Safeway on Ashland Street.
Dispatcher: Sorry about that — are you somewhere safe while you wait? And what year and make is the car?
Caller: Yeah I'm inside the store. It's a 2019 Honda Accord.
Dispatcher: Perfect. Can I get your name and the best callback number? I'll also confirm it's your vehicle when the tech arrives.
Caller: Mark, 541-555-0173.
Dispatcher: Thanks Mark — car lockout, silver 2019 Accord at the Ashland Street Safeway. You're locked in, and he'll text you a confirmed arrival time as soon as he's free. Stay warm inside.

“You're locked in — the tech will text your arrival time as soon as he's free.” He never heard a voicemail greeting, and never called the locksmith down the street.
Why it's different
Most AI answering services just book a slot and hope. This one is built like a dispatcher, with hard rules that protect your name:
It never tells a customer “15 minutes” to win the job. It gives an honest arrival window only when it can, and otherwise promises you'll text a confirmed time — so nobody's furious when you pull up.
Every quote comes from your rate card, never the AI's imagination, and always as an estimate you confirm on site. No surprise numbers reaching your customer.
Set your dispatching hours and your phone never buzzes outside them. After-hours calls are captured and queued for morning — the AI never tells a customer you're on your way at 2am.

From one operator to another
I run Grizzly Towing & Recovery in Ashland, Oregon — one truck, one driver, me. Every call I missed while hooking up a car was money handed to the next company in the search results, and I know a locked-out customer at 9pm is doing exactly what my stranded ones do: calling down the list until someone picks up. So I built the dispatcher I needed, and it works just as well for a lockout as a tow. Want it on your line?
