  • Angi
Setup
  1. deploy Hatch for after-hours/overflow inbound → book into ServiceTitan grid
  2. add speed-to-lead on LSA/Angi
  3. build outbound blasts for slow seasons
  4. review AI call transcripts to surface lost opportunities into an inside-sales re-engage list
Step-by-step setup guide + copy-paste prompt

Honest note: Inbound voice is AI. Outbound SMS blasts and speed-to-lead are mostly rule-based campaigns with AI qualifying replies.

Prerequisites

  • Hatch with Voice AI + outbound campaigns.
  • ServiceTitan calendar connected for live booking.
  • Lead sources (Google LSA, Angi, etc.) feeding Hatch contacts.

Step-by-step setup

Step 1. Deploy after-hours / overflow Voice AI. Create a New AI Agent (inbound) → customize template → Knowledge + Persona → publish. Add a separate After Hours Agent (toggle in Set Trigger, ⚙️ for business hours) after a business-hours bot is published.

Step 2. Book into ServiceTitan. Confirm the Hatch ↔ ServiceTitan connection so AI-booked jobs land on the real dispatch grid (create a "Hatch AI" employee/tech if your onboarding recommends it).

Step 3. Add speed-to-lead. Auto-enroll new Google LSA / Angi leads into a Hatch campaign that texts within seconds; let AI qualify, then hand hot leads to CSRs.

Step 4. Build slow-season outbound. In Hatch campaigns, add estimate follow-up, nurture, recontact, and marketing blast sequences for dips in demand.

Step 5. Mine transcripts weekly. Review AI call transcripts for lost opportunities and dump them into an inside-sales re-engage list.
