FAQ
What locksmiths ask before they sign up.
Will my customers know they’re talking to AI?
TalkLive introduces itself as your virtual receptionist. Callers know they’re on an AI line — and 94% say they prefer it to voicemail.
Do I need to change my phone number?
No. We forward missed calls from your existing number. Customers keep dialling the number on your van, your website and your invoices.
Does it understand locksmith work?
It’s trained on lock and key work, so it asks what actually matters on the call — the lock, the door, address, ID check, how soon — and confirms your service fee before booking anything.
What if someone calls with an emergency?
You set what counts as urgent for you — a lockout, a key snapped in the door, or a break-in that needs securing tonight. Those reach your on-call locksmith straight away, by call and text. Everything else the AI books itself.
Does it work outside business hours?
That’s the whole point. TalkLive answers 24/7/365, including weekends, holidays and 3am emergencies.
How long does it take to set up?
Create a free account and add your services, prices and rules — that’s what your AI answers from. When you’re ready to take real calls, claim your number and we set the forwarding up with you.
Does it support different languages?
TalkLive answers locksmiths in French (France and Quebecois accent) as well as English. If you need another language, we can build that too.
