Questions

Fair questions, straight answers

What kinds of businesses is this for?

Any local business that gets the same questions over and over: restaurants, tattoo shops, salons and barbers, roofers and other trades, realtors, people selling products from home, gyms, shops and more. And if your business doesn't match a trade, that's exactly what Porch, the general bot, is for.

What if it doesn't know an answer?

It tells the customer to call or message you directly instead of making something up. We set it to only answer from the info you've given us — your website and your "anything else" form — so it never invents a price or a policy.

Can it take bookings?

Yes. It collects the customer's details and the time they want, and sends the request to you. Hooking it up to your calendar is part of setup.

Can it take orders?

Yes — if your website takes online orders, your bot takes the customer's order right in the chat and sends it through your online ordering for checkout and payment. If your site doesn't take orders, the bot still takes the full order and passes it to you as an order request.

Can it build my customer list?

Yes. Every bot can sign customers up for your updates right in the chat — your news, specials and seasonal offers — and it always asks for a clear yes first, so every subscriber lands with you with their phone or email and their yes on record. It speaks each trade's language, too: a realtor's bot signs buyers up for new listings (and asks what they're looking for), and a restaurant's bot signs regulars up for new dishes and specials.

What does the first free month mean?

You pay the $300 setup, and the $99 monthly fee starts after your first month.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any month.
