{"faqs":[{"answer":"Through answer-engine optimization (AEO/GEO). We structure your firm's content and authority signals so AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Claude, and Copilot cite you as a trusted design-build contractor. We track AI search visibility as its own metric so you can see exactly where you're being mentioned.","question":"How does my design-build firm show up when homeowners ask ChatGPT or Google AI for contractor recommendations?"},{"answer":"Our AI SDRs and voice agents respond the moment interest arrives — under 60 seconds, 24/7 including after-hours and weekends. They qualify the project using your rules and book the call on your calendar. If a caller needs a human, the call can be handed to a real person with full context.","question":"What happens to inquiries that come in after hours or on weekends?"},{"answer":"No platform switch required.

Do we have to switch?"},{"answer":"Paid campaigns and outreach can start producing inquiries within days of launch.
