Inspection proposal sent to new inquiry
Sent Mike H. two available inspection times and an intro to your process.
Drafted 3 replies — an inspection time, an insurance-claim answer, an estimate next-step. Ready when you are.
01—The problem
You're on a roof when the best leads arrive — and whoever replies first wins.
The roofing industry runs on speed-to-lead. A homeowner gets hail damage on Tuesday and emails three contractors. Two don't reply until Thursday. One replies in twenty minutes with a real, specific message. That contractor gets the inspection — and the job. The painful part: the contractor who replies first isn't always the best roofer. They're just the one who wasn't on a ladder.
“97% of roofing customers expect a callback within a week — and over half expect one within two days. Leads cost $79 to $200+ each. The contractor who replies first wins the job.”

97%
97% of roofing customers expect a callback within a week — and over half expect it within two days. But you're on a ladder when leads come in, not at a desk. Every hour you don't reply is an hour your competitor can.
Roofing contractor customer expectation surveys, 2024
$79–$200+
Roofing leads cost between $79 and $200+ each for exclusive leads. Every inquiry that goes cold because nobody replied fast enough is a burned marketing dollar — and a five-figure job going to whoever showed up first.
Home improvement lead pricing data, 2024–2025
5+ follow-ups
Most roofing jobs close after five or more contacts — but most contractors give up after one or two. The jobs you're losing aren't going to contractors who are better. They're going to contractors who followed up more.

Storm season
After a hail or wind event, 40+ leads can arrive in 48 hours. Responding to every one while running a crew is physically impossible — and the homeowner who doesn't hear back books whoever did respond.
Roofing contractor storm-season lead data
Here's what a slow inbox actually costs you.
You paid $150 for that lead. It came in at 10am while you were on a job. You saw it at 3pm. You replied at 4pm. The homeowner had already booked an inspection with a competitor by 11am. You'll never know you lost — you just won't get a reply to your email.
Multiply that across storm season. Forty leads in forty-eight hours after a hail event. You can physically respond to maybe eight or ten. The other thirty go to whoever was available to answer email on a Tuesday afternoon. At five figures a job, that's not a lead problem. That's a six-figure opportunity sitting in an inbox you couldn't get to.
You don't have a marketing problem. You have a “can't-reply-fast-enough” problem.
02—The solution
Now imagine an inbox that books inspections for you.
Every storm lead, every insurance question, every inspection request — answered in your voice, within minutes, while you're working. Scope and pricing stay with you. Everything else runs automatically.
Connect your inbox in under 2 minutes
Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, or IMAP. AI Emaily learns your voice from the messages you've already sent leads and customers, then loads your services, service area, and process.
It drafts every lead reply in your voice
Storm damage inquiry, insurance question, inspection timeline request — a real, personalized reply is written and waiting the moment the lead comes in. No generic templates. Reads like you wrote it from the job site.
You approve — or set rules and let it run
One tap to send in Copilot mode. Scope, pricing, and warranty specifics always come to you first — never autosent. As you build trust, hand the routine scheduling and FAQ replies to Autopilot within the rules you set. Full undo and audit trail.
Watch it work
See it book an inspection before your competitor responds.
Two minutes on how AI Emaily reads a new roofing lead, drafts a real reply in your voice, and sends an inspection proposal — before you even get off the roof.
03—What you get
Built for the way you actually run a roofing company.
Six ways AI Emaily turns your lead response problem into a competitive advantage.
Reply to every storm lead before a competitor does
A hail-damage inquiry hits your inbox while you're on a roof. A personalized reply — inspection times, your process, what to expect — is drafted (or sent, on your rule) within minutes. You're the contractor who answered first.
Insurance questions, inspection scheduling, estimate next-steps — handled
'Do you work with insurance claims?' 'How soon can you inspect?' 'What does the estimate process look like?' — real answers to real lead questions, drafted in your voice, so the inquiry moves toward a booked inspection instead of going cold.
Follow-ups that actually happen
The five-touch sequence most contractors skip runs automatically — so the lead who didn't respond the first day gets a follow-up on day three, and the one who wanted to wait gets a check-in after the next storm.
Your leads, briefed every morning
Wake up to every overnight inquiry, insurance question, and scheduling request — with replies already drafted and ready to approve. Know exactly which leads to call before you leave for the first job. Delivered to your inbox, Slack, or Telegram.
Every inbox, on every device
One unified inbox across Gmail, Outlook, iCloud, and IMAP — on web and mobile. Reply from the truck between jobs, approve from the job site, close the loop from anywhere.
Scope and pricing always stay in your hands
AI Emaily never quotes prices, commits to warranty terms, or makes scope promises — those always come to you for review and approval first. It handles the process questions; you handle the contract.
04—A Tuesday after the storm, on you
It's 10am. You're on a job. The hail reports are everywhere.
Three new leads land in your inbox in an hour. One needs an estimate for hail damage and wants to know your timeline. One is asking whether you handle insurance claims. One is selling their house in three weeks and needs a roof certification or inspection before they can list.
You're on the roof. You won't see these until after lunch. On any other Tuesday, one of those homeowners has already booked a competitor before you get down the ladder. That competitor isn't better than you — they just had someone in the office.
Not today. By the time you're back on the ground, AI Emaily has sent a warm, specific reply to each one — a real answer about your insurance process, two inspection times proposed to the hail-damage lead, and a reassuring note to the seller about your timeline. All three respond. You check your phone at lunch and you've got two inspections booked and one more asking when you can come out. That's a Tuesday that used to go to someone else.

“Booked an inspection before I climbed down the ladder”
I was on a job when a storm-damage lead came in. By the time I was back on the ground, AI Emaily had sent him two inspection times in my words. He picked one before I even called him back. That's a five-figure job I'd have lost.

“Storm season used to break us. Not anymore.”
After a hail event we'd get 40 leads in two days. I couldn't physically respond to all of them fast. Now they all get a real reply within minutes and we're booking more inspections than ever during peak season.

“Won a job because I replied first — while eating dinner”
A homeowner emailed three contractors at once. I got the inspection because mine was the first reply she got. She told me that at the close. It was AI Emaily. I was at the dinner table.

“Insurance questions answered without me getting on the phone”
Half my leads ask about insurance claims right away. Now they get a clear, accurate explanation of our process before I even know they emailed. Less back-and-forth, more inspections booked.

“Scope and pricing stays mine — the rest runs automatically”
I was worried it would quote prices or promise things I couldn't deliver. It doesn't — pricing and warranty specifics come to me first. Everything else, the scheduling, the process questions, it handles perfectly.

“Follow-ups I never sent are winning jobs now”
I used to let leads go cold if they didn't book immediately. Now follow-up messages go out automatically and I'm closing jobs I would have completely forgotten about a month ago. It's money I was leaving on the table.

“97% of customers want a fast callback. Now they get one.”
I knew the stat — everyone expects a quick reply. But knowing it and doing it when you're running a crew are different things. Now every lead gets a real response in minutes, not hours. My close rate went up noticeably.

“Took a weekend to set up. Worth every minute.”
Writing out my process for the AI felt like work at first. But now that it knows how I talk and what I offer, the drafts are genuinely better than what I'd type myself in a rush. Paid for itself the first week.

“Never lost another lead to a competitor who replied faster”
I had a homeowner tell me straight out she booked someone else because they called back first. That was the last time that happened. Now I'm the one who replies first, every time, even when I'm on a roof.

“The audit trail made my wife comfortable with it”
My wife handles the books and was skeptical. When she saw she could read every single draft it sent, and that nothing goes out without my sign-off on the specifics, she was sold. Total peace of mind.

“Lead costs are too high to let any go cold”

“Scheduling inspections while I'm driving between jobs”
I'd miss leads because I was in the truck. Now the lead gets a real message and inspection times while I'm still on the road. By the time I park, half of them have already picked a time slot.

“Handles the inbox so I can stay focused on the estimate”
Writing estimates takes real concentration. I used to stop constantly to check if a new lead came in. Now I know they're being handled and I can focus. Better estimates and more leads — hard to argue with that.

“Every storm lead gets a real reply, not a form email”
My competitors send the same generic response to everyone. AI Emaily actually references what the customer said — the hail, their timeline, their concern — and it sounds like I wrote it. That difference wins jobs.
