Lockout callers dial down a list until someone picks up, and you can't answer while you're picking a lock across town. RaheemAI sets up Ava, an AI answering service that answers, finds out whether it's a home, car or business, gets the exact location and sends it to you, using only the prices and policies you approve.
Ava says she's an AI · Only your approved prices · 14-day free trial
Thanks for calling Keystone Lock & Key. This is Ava, the company's AI assistant. Are you locked out of a home, a car or a business?
My car, at the grocery store lot
I can get a technician to you. Is anyone or any pet locked inside the car?
No, just my keys
Okay. What's the store's address, and the car's make and model?
Example call. The company is made up.
The calls you can't get to still matter.
- Lockout calls come at all hours, often while you're on another job
- Callers hang up and try the next locksmith if nobody answers
- Every caller wants a price, and you need it stated the same way every time
- Rekey and lock-change requests get lost among emergencies
What Ava does for your locksmith business
Handles lockouts
Home, car or business; exact location; vehicle or lock details, then sent to you or your on-call tech by your rules.
States your prices consistently
If you approve a service-call fee or price range, she states it the same way every time and explains what can change it. Otherwise she says the tech will confirm the price.
Sets expectations on ID
She tells callers your technician will ask for proof that they live there or own the vehicle, if that's your policy.
Books rekeys and installs
Non-urgent jobs like rekeying, smart locks or safes get booked or captured for scheduling.
Emails you a summary
Each call arrives with the location and job details.
Says she's an AI
Ava introduces herself as the company's AI assistant on every call.
Safety first, every time
If a child, a vulnerable person or a pet is locked in a car, Ava tells the caller to call 911 right away, then flags the call for you. She doesn't give lock-bypass instructions, and she doesn't promise arrival times or prices you haven't set.
Three steps. We do the setup.
Free missed-lead check
We call or message your business like a customer would, after hours or at a busy time, and show you exactly what they experience.
We set it up for you
We learn your services, hours and booking rules, and set up your assistant. You keep your phone number and the tools you already use.

Questions locksmiths ask
Will Ava quote a price for a lockout?
Only the fee or range you give her. Clear, consistent pricing on the phone matters to callers, so we write it with you word for word.
Can she send calls to whoever is on call tonight?
Yes. You set the on-call rules, and Ava transfers or flags urgent calls to that person.
Does Ava verify that the caller owns the property?
No. She can tell callers your technician will check ID on site, if that's your policy.
Do we keep our number?
Yes. Forward only busy, unanswered or after-hours calls.
