Step 1 · She calls while you're on a ladder

Temaro's message thread with Marisol: the automatic missed-call text, her consent, and the quote text

Missed calls, texted

A call you can't take gets an automatic reply in seconds, with a link to tell you what they need — before they try the next name on Google.

Replies, in one place

When they text back, it lands in Temaro instead of disappearing. Answer from your phone, and the whole conversation stays on that customer's record.

Quotes, sent from the job site

Build a quote in minutes, send it by text, and let your customer accept it and pay a deposit online — no paperwork, no chasing signatures.

Invoices with a Pay button

Mark the job complete and the invoice goes out with a way to pay it. The money lands in your bank account instead of a stack of checks on the dash.

Reviews, without the chase

Finish a job and the review request goes out on its own, while the work is still fresh — no awkward asking.

Old customers, remembered

Temaro keeps track of who hasn't been back in a while and checks in for you, so last year's work turns into this year's.

The platform

Everything runs behind your existing number

No new number to give out, no app for customers to download. Your phone rings first; only the calls you miss forward to Temaro, which texts the caller back from your business's own Temaro number and handles the busywork around every call.

AI, only where it earns its keep

On the AI Pro plan, Tempe works the phone so you don't have to:

  • answers customers' texts in your words
  • drafts a quote from the conversation, using only your price list — you reply SEND from your phone to send it
  • offers appointment times that fit your route
  • sends your work photos when someone asks to see the work
  • follows up on quotes and unpaid invoices, and remembers who said "call me in the spring"
  • tells you each morning what needs you

It never invents a price and never texts anyone who said STOP. You choose how much it does on its own — suggest only, ask you first, or just do it — one dial per job, and every dial starts on the safest setting.

The monthly amounts are what a busy one-crew business uses with room to spare. Missed-call texts, quotes and invoices always go out, even past them. Go over, and the automatic extras — follow-ups, review requests, Tempe's replies — pause until next month. You'll see it coming at 80%, and you can buy a pack or move up a plan any time.

Packs: 500 more texts for $15, on any plan. On AI Pro, 250 more AI actions for $20 — up to 100 of them can be Tempe replies. A pack lasts a year. You're never billed per text — a pack is only ever something you choose to buy.

An AI action is one thing Tempe does for you: a reply drafted, a quote drafted, or a question answered in chat.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a new phone number?+

No. Customers keep calling the number they already have. Here's which number does what:

  • Calls ring your own phone first, the same as today.
  • Missed calls go to a local number Temaro sets up for your business when your plan starts — you point your phone's "forward if unanswered" at it. Temaro texts the caller back and takes the voicemail.
  • Texts — the missed-call reply, quotes, invoices, review requests and Tempe's replies — all go out from that Temaro number. Each one names your business, and customers can reply to it.

Someone who calls the Temaro number directly hears a short message or your voicemail greeting and gets the text-back. Nobody answers it live.

How soon can I start texting customers?+
Phone carriers require every business that texts its customers to be registered — it's their rule, not ours. You fill in one short form in Temaro (most of it is already filled in from your signup), we submit it, and Temaro pays the fees. Approval usually takes under a week, sometimes up to three. Everything else works from day one — quotes, invoices, card payments, scheduling and your crew — and you can send quotes and invoices by email in the meantime.
What happens when I miss a call?+
The caller gets an automatic text within seconds with a link to describe their project, so you have their details waiting for you instead of a missed-call notification and nothing else.
Can my team use it too?+
Yes — invite staff with their own logins. Every plan includes a set number of seats, and every text a teammate sends is tagged with their name.
Is my customers' information safe?+
Yes. Your data is encrypted and never sold. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
What does Tempe never do?+
It never makes up a price — a quote comes only from your price list or numbers you said. It never texts a customer who replied STOP. It never cancels, archives or reprices anything without showing you first and getting a yes. And on the two safer settings it never sends a text you haven't seen.
What happens if I use up the month's texts?+
Missed-call replies, quotes and invoices keep going out no matter what. The automatic extras — follow-ups, review requests, win-back check-ins, Tempe's replies — pause until the month rolls over, until you buy a pack (500 texts for $15; whatever you don't use carries over for a year), or until you move up a plan. You get a heads-up at 80%. You're never billed per text: going over only pauses the extras, and a pack is something you choose to buy.
What does it cost when a customer pays by card?+
Your customers can pay deposits and invoices by card through Stripe, and the money is passed straight on to your own Stripe account. Two fees come out of each payment: Stripe's card fee (2.9% + 30¢ on US cards) and 0.3% to Temaro — on a $2,880 job, $83.82 to Stripe and $8.64 to Temaro. Customers can also pay by bank account, where Stripe's fee is 0.8% and never more than $5 — the same $2,880 job costs $13.64 in fees that way (a bank payment takes about 4 business days to arrive). If a customer disputes a payment or a bank payment fails, Stripe's fee for that ($15 for a dispute, $4 for a failed bank payment) is yours, at exactly what Stripe charges. If you refund a customer, they get back the full amount you choose; the fees taken from that payment aren't returned and Temaro adds no refund fee — unless the refund is down to a mistake on Temaro's side, and then Temaro covers them. No monthly minimum, no fee on payments you take any other way.
Can I cancel anytime?+

Yes — billed monthly, no contract. There are two ways to stop:

  • Cancel your plan (Settings → Billing → Manage billing). Billing stops and your account and data stay. Your Temaro number stops sending and is kept for 30 days — come back within that time and it's yours again; after that it's released.
  • Delete your account (Settings → Delete account). Everything stops that day, including your subscription. Your data is held for 30 days in case you change your mind, then permanently deleted, apart from the payment records the Privacy Policy lists.

Either way, you can download your customers, quotes and invoices as spreadsheets first.

Never miss another job.
