Why we built this

Every contractor we talked to had the same story: they missed a call while on a job, the customer called someone else, and the job was gone. Not because the contractor was bad at their trade — because they were on a roof, under a hood, or mid-install. Arbitro fixes that. When a lead comes in, our AI responds within 5 seconds, asks the right qualifying questions, and books the appointment before the competitor even calls back. You get a fully-qualified booking delivered to your calendar — no staff required.

What makes Arbitro different

Responds in under 5 seconds

The AI replies the moment a lead comes in — SMS, Instagram DM, Facebook Messenger. Not in 5 minutes. Not in an hour. Instantly.

🎯

Qualifies, not just captures

BANT-style questions identify budget, urgency, authority, and timeline before you even see the lead. You only talk to people worth your time.

📅

Books directly to your calendar

Cal.com integration means the AI books an appointment and sends confirmations to both sides — without you lifting a finger.

📱

Every channel, one inbox

SMS, web chat, Instagram, Facebook Messenger — all consolidated into a single dashboard so nothing slips through the cracks.

🔒

You stay in control

One tap pauses the AI and hands the conversation to you. The bot never interrupts once you take over.

💰

Flat rate, no per-lead fees

One monthly subscription. You keep 100% of every job Arbitro books for you — we never take a cut of your revenue.
