Sara handles your customers. Sam runs your back office. A person sets it up with you in a week, and you approve what matters. [Contact us](https://samandsara.ai/#contact)[How it works](https://samandsara.ai/#morning) ## Every call, quote, bill and hire waits for you. A new customer calls while you are busy with another one. Nobody picks up, so they call the next company. The quote goes out tomorrow, the supplier bill sits unpaid, and the hire you need stays unmade. AI tools don’t fix this, because someone still has to set them up, check them and manage them, and that someone is you. A sample morning ## One page each morning tells you what got done and what needs you. Sara and Sam message you in two threads, in the web or mobile app, on WhatsApp or on iMessage. They handle the routine work, and they ask you before any money moves. Sample data Today from Sara and Sam **Sara 8:40 am** Booked 6 estimates for Thursday and Friday.

Meet your team ## Sara handles your customers. Sam handles your back office. YOUR CUSTOMERS ### Sara Talks to your customers as “Sara at your company name,” and always says she is an AI. - Answers calls, texts and web chat, including after hours - Books jobs and estimates inside your rules - Texts back missed calls, and follows up on open quotes - Asks happy customers for reviews YOUR BACK OFFICE ### Sam Keeps the inside of the company running. Nothing is paid without your approval. - Sends invoices, and holds supplier bills that do not match the order - Keeps your books ready for your accountant - Writes job posts, interviews applicants and gives you summaries - Keeps the numbers, and a plan for what to hand over next Why a team, not a tool ## Another tool is one more thing for you to run.

With Sam & Sara, a person on our team does that, and you approve. | | AI receptionist | Answering service | Office manager | Sam & Sara | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | What it does | Answers phone calls, and sometimes books | A person takes a message and passes it on | One person, set hours, many tasks | Sara talks to your customers, books jobs and follows up.

Nothing books or follows up. | Recruit, train, manage and cover absences. | Approve what matters and read one page a day. | Getting started ## A person sets you up. It takes a week. Your client partner is a person on our team. They learn your business from you and connect Sam and Sara to your tools. Plan on about 4 hours of your time in week 1, then about 2 hours a week. 1 **Tell us how your company works** Your client partner learns it from you: your customers, your prices, your rules, your history. 2 **Decide what needs your yes** You say what Sam and Sara can do alone, and what needs your approval. You can change it by message. 3 **Connect your tools** Sam and Sara connect to your email, calendar, books and job software, with the smallest access that works. Gmail and Outlook stay as they are. 4 **Go live on one job** First they practice on real work and you approve every message. Then one real job goes live, usually answering your customers. More follow as you see it work. Questions ## What owners ask first. More on [how we handle data and approvals](https://samandsara.ai/trust), or [more about us](https://samandsara.ai/about). **What is Sam & Sara?** Sam & Sara is an AI leadership team for owner-led service businesses. Sara talks to your customers by phone, text and chat, books jobs, follows up on quotes and asks for reviews. Sam runs the back office: bills, books, hiring and the numbers. A person on our team sets it up with you in a week, and you approve what matters. **Does Sara tell callers she is an AI?** Yes. At the start of every call and chat, Sara says she is an AI assistant for your company. Calls are recorded and the greeting says so. You cannot turn that greeting off. **What do Sam and Sara do without asking me?** They answer from the knowledge you approved, book inside your rules, text back missed calls, follow up on sent quotes, ask for reviews and write your daily page. They always ask before money moves, before an offer or a rejection, before a refund, discount or price change, before a public reply to a bad review, and before anything new. You can pause Sara at any time, and calls then go to your phone. **What happens when Sara gets something wrong?** We catch it, fix the cause and tell you. If a mistake could cost money or cause harm, Sara is paused on that flow within 1 hour of the report, and your client partner calls you the same day. Each serious error becomes a written rule for Sara to follow. **Do you train AI models on my data?** No. We do not use your data, your customers’ conversations or your recordings to train any general AI model. Each client’s data stays separate. The Trust page has the full list. **Is this a tool I have to learn?** No. You talk to Sara and Sam in plain messages, the way you would talk to a manager. They pick the tools, set them up and run them. You approve what matters. **Do I have to change my email or software?** No. Gmail or Outlook stay as they are. Sam and Sara work in them for you, and you read and approve in your two threads. Your staff keep using their current tools until they join the workspace. **What does it cost?** The price depends on your business. Contact us and a person will go through it with you. ## Talk to us. Tell us about your business and what waits for you. A person reads every message and replies by email. Sam & Sara Your AI leadership team.
