What it handles
The locksmith calls you're missing right now
Lockouts happen at the worst hours, and the caller is stranded and dialing down the list — whoever answers first gets the job. Here's what CallNeo picks up.
Emergency lockouts
Someone locked out of their car or home at midnight can't wait for a callback. CallNeo captures the location and situation and routes it to your on-call locksmith immediately.
After-hours & weekend calls
Lockouts don't keep business hours. Your phone answers at 2am the same way it does at 2pm — so the emergency call becomes your job, not the next locksmith's.
Service & pricing questions
Whether you cut car keys, how much a rekey costs, whether you handle commercial — the questions every caller asks, answered accurately and booked, on the first ring.
Job details, captured
Name, number, location, the lock situation, and vehicle or property details — texted to you the moment the call ends, with a recording and transcript.
Emergency triage
It knows a midnight lockout from a rekey quote
Some calls are someone stranded outside their car right now; others are a homeowner planning a rekey next week. During setup we map how you want each handled — then CallNeo takes it from there.

Pricing
One booked lockout pays for the month
Emergency lockouts are premium-priced, and they go to whoever answers first — so a missed 2am call is real money handed to a competitor. You're paying pennies per call for the after-hours coverage that turns those calls into your jobs instead of the next locksmith's.
- Includes a set number of calls; overage works out to roughly $0.50 for a typical call
- Done-for-you setup and ongoing tuning included — not an enterprise add-on
- No long-term contract and no per-seat fees
We build and train it on your locksmith business for you — you only go live once it's ready. No DIY setup, no per-call cliff.

Why locksmiths lose jobs to the phone
A locksmith’s best jobs come at the worst times — a lockout at midnight, a broken key on a Sunday, a business locked out before opening. The person calling is stranded and stressed, and they’re not leaving a voicemail; they’re calling down the list until someone picks up. Whoever answers first gets the job, at a premium. Every call your line sends to voicemail is a high-value emergency handed straight to a competitor.
After-hours is the business
Plenty of locksmiths advertise 24-hour service but still let after-hours calls roll to voicemail. That gap is the opening. CallNeo answers every call, day or night, triages the true emergencies to your on-call locksmith, and books the routine rekeys and installs for later — so you capture the 2am lockout without having to sit by the phone yourself.
Works with the tools you already run
CallNeo connects to the scheduling and CRM software you already use — Jobber, Housecall Pro, and others with an API. Bookings, call summaries, and new-lead details flow straight into your system. We wire the integration up for you during onboarding; you don’t touch a config screen.
Done-for-you, live in 48 hours
You don’t build anything. Send us your services, pricing, service area, and calendar, and we build the call script, set the voice, connect your tools, and run real test calls. Most locksmith shops are live in about 48 hours, and because we handle the ongoing tuning, CallNeo keeps getting sharper at your calls.
Plans start at $95/mo. One booked lockout usually costs more than a month of CallNeo.
Locksmiths — frequently asked questions
Can it handle an emergency lockout call?
Yes — CallNeo triages lockout emergencies using rules you define during setup. During setup we define what counts as an emergency for your shop — a car or home lockout, someone locked out after hours, a business lockout — and how you want it handled. CallNeo recognizes the urgency, captures the location and situation, and warm-transfers to your on-call locksmith or texts you immediately, while routine rekey quotes get booked without interrupting you.
Will it answer after-hours and weekend calls?
Yes — CallNeo answers lockout calls nights, weekends and holidays. Lockouts happen nights, weekends, and holidays — exactly when your competitors' phones go to voicemail. CallNeo answers 24/7, triages the emergency, and routes it to your on-call locksmith, so the late-night call becomes your job.
Does it work with my scheduling or dispatch software?
CallNeo connects to whatever scheduling or CRM software you already use, as long as it has an API — Jobber, Housecall Pro, and others. We wire the integration up during your done-for-you setup so bookings, call summaries, and lead details flow into your system automatically. You don't configure anything yourself.
Do I have to change my phone number?
No. You keep your existing number and forward calls to CallNeo — either all the time, or only when you'd otherwise miss the call (busy, no answer, after hours). Setup takes about 48 hours.
How much does an AI receptionist for locksmiths cost?
CallNeo starts at $95/month for locksmiths, including a set number of calls. Overage is billed per minute and works out to roughly $0.50 for a typical call — far below the $2.00/call Smith.ai bills on its Pro plan. One booked lockout usually covers the month.
