Connect Thumbtack
Two minutes. Sign in, tell Relay what you do, what you charge, and when you work. It reads your website if you have one.
Relay reads each new Thumbtack request, replies the way you would, with your prices and your hours, and texts you the moment someone is ready to book. You answer by text. There is no app to open.
$1.99 per lead answered · nothing when it is quiet · no card to start
Two minutes. Sign in, tell Relay what you do, what you charge, and when you work. It reads your website if you have one.
In seconds, in your voice. It quotes your real prices, knows what time it is where you are, and remembers customers who have used you before.
A customer who is ready to book, or one who needs a person. Reply to the text and it goes straight to them. Relay stands down until you say otherwise.
Relay texts you a short summary and a handle like @3. Type @3 and your message, and it lands in the customer's Thumbtack thread as you. No login. No tapping through screens with wet hands.
Text @3 pause and Relay leaves that customer to you. Text leads to see who is waiting.
Billed weekly. No monthly fee, no seats, no tiers. A slow week costs you nothing. A lead Relay never answered is never charged. Compare that to $2.99 and $1.49 for the same thing elsewhere.
Try the demo at the top and judge for yourself. Relay writes short replies in the tone you set, uses your real prices, and knows the local time, so it will never offer "this afternoon" at nine at night. You can read every reply it sends.
Reply by text, or tap Take over in the app. The moment you do, Relay stops replying to that customer until you hand it back. Your call always overrides Relay's.
It gets answered at 11pm. Relay tells the customer when you open and what the next available time is, so they stop looking for someone else. You see it in the morning with the conversation already started.
Your leads and conversations sit in Relay's own database, encrypted in transit, backed up nightly. We do not sell it and we do not share your phone number or messaging consent with anyone for marketing. The full policy is one page and is written in plain English.
Set Relay up in two minutes and stop losing jobs to your own voicemail.
