Does it ever quote a price that changes once the technician arrives?

No — it states the same published flat-rate pricing every time, which is the entire point. If a job turns out to need something beyond the standard scope (a broken key extraction, a high-security lock), it says that upfront as a possibility rather than hiding it.

How does it prioritize a genuine emergency?

By recognizing specific urgency signals — a child or pet locked in a vehicle, an unsafe location — and routing those ahead of routine scheduling, rather than treating every lockout identically.

Can it verify someone owns the property or vehicle before dispatch?

No — that verification happens with the technician on-site, using ID and proof of ownership, following your standard security process. It doesn't attempt that check itself.

AI customer support for locksmiths

Locksmiths have a real trust problem: a widely reported scam pattern quotes a low price on the phone and triples it on-site. RubyRep can't fix the industry, but it fixes your own site — it states your real, published pricing every time, consistently, which is the exact thing that makes a customer trust a locksmith enough to call in an emergency.

What locksmith businesses deal with

The industry's reputation for bait-and-switch pricing makes customers hesitant to call anyone, including honest shops.
A lockout at 2am needs a fast, clear answer, not a form submission.
Re-key, high-security and commercial lock questions get lumped in with simple lockouts even though pricing and process differ.

How RubyRep works for locksmith businesses

Real, published pricing stated the same way every time — the antidote to the industry's bait-and-switch reputation.

Lockout requests recognized and routed to fast dispatch, any hour.

Re-key, high-security and commercial questions answered with their own distinct pricing and process, not lumped with lockouts.

The knowledge comes from pages you already publish:

Flat-rate pricing page
Emergency lockout dispatch page
Re-key and high-security services page
Automotive key and fob services page

Questions your visitors actually ask

“How much to unlock my car?”
“I'm locked out right now, how fast can you come?”
“How much to re-key my house?”
“Do you make car key fobs?”
“Is your pricing flat rate or does it change on-site?”

After-hours support that doesn't lose the lead

The gap between a question and an answer is where interest dies. Answering after-hours questions immediately — and routing the ones you can't answer to a form or booking link — keeps enquiries warm until someone is back at a desk.

FAQ automation that uses your real pages

A static FAQ page ages badly and never quite matches how people phrase things. Reading your whole site instead means the answer to a question can come from wherever it genuinely lives — a policy page, a product spec, a help article.

What is grounding in AI?

A grounded system retrieves passages before it writes anything, puts them in front of the model, and instructs it to answer only from what it was given. The test of whether a system is grounded is simple and does not require access to its internals: ask it something, then ask it where the answer came from. A grounded system names a page. An ungrounded one describes its reasoning.
