Common questions
No. ServiceTitan remains your dispatch and job management system. Operator fills the gap around missed call recovery, which ServiceTitan does not handle natively.
Operator connects to your phone system log. Calls that ring without a booked job outcome within a set window are flagged as missed and added to the recovery queue.
Review the callback queue each morning, make the calls, and mark whether a job was booked. Operator handles detection, drafting, and logging. The CSR handles the customer conversation.
Most HVAC shops are live in a single session. Connect your phone log, define the recovery queue owner, and the first missed call card appears that day.
Track daily missed call count, callback completion rate, and jobs recovered per week. Improving recovery at stable or lower missed call count means the practice is working.
Replace the manual layer. Keep ServiceTitan.
Operator installs alongside your existing software. No migration. No disruption.
