How can AI help a trade business?

AI automates the most time-consuming tasks in the trades: appointment booking by phone and WhatsApp, qualifying quote requests, automatic booking confirmations, reminders before appointments and follow-up after a job is completed. According to the German Confederation of Skilled Crafts (ZDH, 2024), trade businesses lose up to 40% of potential jobs due to missed calls.

Do I need technical knowledge for the AI solution?

No, NovaCon handles the complete setup and configuration. It's as easy to use as WhatsApp. Your team receives a short training session and can manage the chatbot through a simple dashboard. You can make changes to opening hours, services or prices yourself.

Can the AI qualify quote requests?

Yes, the AI assistant automatically asks for the most important details: type of work, scope, desired timeframe, address and photos. This way you receive pre-qualified inquiries with all the necessary information and can prepare a suitable quote faster.

Does the voice agent also work for incoming phone calls?

Yes, the voice agent answers calls automatically — even outside business hours, during the lunch break or when all staff are on job sites. It holds natural conversations, records appointment requests and forwards urgent matters to you via SMS or email.

What does an AI solution for trade businesses cost?

AI solutions for the trades start at approximately €1,000 setup + €300/month for a simple chatbot with appointment booking. With a voice agent, WhatsApp integration and quote configurator, costs range from €3,000-8,000 setup + €500-1,500/month. NovaCon offers a free initial consultation.
