Questions
What is MesaBox?
MesaBox is project intake, for the trades. Wherever homeowners find you, they describe their project in their own words or step by step, and you get a written brief with their budget, timeline and contact details.
Do I get a website with MesaBox?
Yes. MesaBox Sites is included with Core. Pick one of three templates and your colors, add your photos, reviews, quotes and a few lines about your work, and your website is live at yourname.mesabox.site, or on your own domain. Every button opens your project intake. Every trade page has a sample you can open.
Is MesaBox an AI chatbot?
MesaBox uses AI, but it isn’t a chatbot. A chatbot talks for you. MesaBox listens for you. Homeowners describe their project, MesaBox turns it into a brief and checks it against your rules, and they book a call with you. It never quotes prices, estimates, promises dates or gives building advice. Visitors check every answer before they send it.
Will it make things up to my clients?
No. MesaBox doesn’t hold open-ended conversations with your visitors. It asks your questions, shows the visitor what it understood so they can fix anything, and passes it to you. Prices, timelines and advice are always yours to give.
Do I need a developer to set it up?
No. Pick your trade, choose your questions, match your colors and paste one line. That’s it.
Where do my leads go?
We email each one to whoever you choose, and keep it in your account with the brief, contact details and any files. Use a CRM or job tool like JobNimbus, Notion, Pipedrive or HighLevel? Connect it and every lead lands there too, no copying and pasting.
How does the free month work?
Your first 30 days are free, and you don’t need a card to start. We email you a week before the trial ends. If you want to keep going, add a card then. If you don’t, nothing is charged, and your leads and briefs stay in your account.
How do I know which leads to call first?
Every lead gets a fit (Strong, Possible or Not a fit) from your ideal project, and you can tell MesaBox what a premium job is for you, in plain words, like “Budget $1M or more” or “Standing seam metal”. Strong fit + Premium leads go to the top of your list and arrive flagged in your email and your CRM, so you call the right people first.
Who is MesaBox for?
Home builders, architects, interior designers, remodelers, landscape designers, pool builders, roofers and solar installers. If every inquiry is a project you need details on before the first call, it’s for you.
Why is MesaBox better for leads?
A contact form gets you a name and a vague message, then days of phone tag. Homeowners describe the project in their own words and MesaBox asks the follow-up questions you choose, so every lead arrives with a full brief and a fit signal. We send confirmations and reminders for you, so you spend your time on the right projects.
What if a homeowner writes in Spanish?
They can. MesaBox reads any language and gives you the brief in English, with their own words always there to read.
Will it work on my website?
Yes. It’s one line of code you paste once, and it works on Squarespace, Wix, WordPress, DreamHost, Showit, Webflow, Shopify, Houzz and hand-built sites. It loads in the background, so it never holds up your page.
How does it show up on my website?
However you like. Show our button in the corner of every page, place our button on any page, connect a button you already have, or build the whole chat box right into a page like Contact. You also get your own page, like mesabox.ai/your-business, to share in emails, ads and social posts.
Can I change the questions later?
Anytime. Edit them in your account and the chat box on your site updates right away.
Does it work with Google Calendar?
Yes. Connect Google Calendar and MesaBox hides the times you’re already busy, so nobody books over something on your calendar. Every booked call is added to the calendar you choose, and video calls can get a new Google Meet link each time. MesaBox only reads whether you’re free or busy, never what’s on your calendar. If you use Calendly, you can send people to your Calendly link instead.
Is there a link people can use to book a call with me?
Yes. Every account has a booking link, like mesabox.ai/your-business/book, where anyone can pick a time and book a call with you, with no chat box first. Share it in emails, texts, your signature or ads. It follows your hours, your days off and your busy times.
Can people book from Google Maps?
Yes. Add your MesaBox link to your Google Business Profile as its appointment link, and a Book button on Maps and Search opens your chat box. Those leads are marked Google Maps, so you see what your profile brings in.
Can I use it on yard signs and trucks?
Yes. Make a QR code for each place you use it, like yard signs, your truck or door hangers. Download a ready-to-print sign, and every lead shows which code it came from.
Where can homeowners reach my intake?
On your website, your Google Maps listing, Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, any QR code you print, and your own MesaBox page. Every lead lands in the same place, with the same brief and fit.
Is there a contract?
Not on monthly. It’s $249 a month and you can cancel anytime. Prefer to commit? Pay $2,388 up front for the year. That works out to $199/month. Annual comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee: if it isn’t right for you in the first 30 days after you pay, email us and we’ll refund it in full.
Can I pause instead of canceling?
Yes. If your work is seasonal, pause for up to 3 months from Settings → Billing. Billing stops, your chat box takes a break, and your leads, briefs and settings are all kept. It starts again on its own, or any day you choose to resume. You can pause once a year.
What is the phone assistant?
It answers the calls you miss, asks your intake questions, and sends you the same kind of brief you get from your website. It’s a virtual assistant powered by AI, and it tells every caller so.
Will it replace my phone number?
No. Callers keep dialing your usual number. You forward only the calls you miss (no answer, busy or no signal) to your MesaBox number, so it picks up only when you can’t.
What languages does the phone assistant speak?
English, Spanish and French. It answers in the language the caller uses.
What happens on an emergency call?
It marks the call urgent and emails your team right away. If someone describes a fire, sparks or anyone in danger, it tells them to get out and call 911. It never gives repair advice and never quotes a price.
Can the phone assistant book a call for me?
Yes, if booking is on. It offers the times you already set and adds the call to your calendar.
Are phone calls recorded?
Yes, and it says so at the start of every call. You can listen to a recording for 90 days, and then we delete it.
What if I use all my phone minutes?
MesaBox 24/7 includes 1,500 minutes a month and MesaBox Scale includes 5,000. When they’re used up, the assistant keeps answering every call but only takes a message until the first of the month. You can add 1,000 minutes for $99, or move up a plan.
Is there a free trial of the phone assistant?
Not of the assistant itself, because every call costs real money to answer. You can call our demo line any time to hear it first, and the free month with Core still applies. Phone plans are month to month, and if one isn’t right in the first 14 days we refund it minus the minutes used.
What is a source?
A source is a place your leads come from: your website, Google Ads, Zillow, a yard sign, a partner. Each one gets its own link and, on MesaBox 24/7 and Scale, its own phone number. That is how MesaBox knows where each lead came from.
How do I know which ad brought in a job?
Give each ad or marketplace its own source and use its link or number there. When you mark a lead Won and enter the job’s value, Analytics shows the leads, booked calls, jobs won, what you spent and what came back for each source.
Can MesaBox track Zillow, Houzz or Angi leads?
Yes, if the service can email you new leads or send them to a webhook, or you use Zapier or Make. Each source has a private address for that. We don’t read your account on those sites.
What happens to a lead that only gives a name and phone number?
It shows in Leads marked Contact only. If you leave the invitation on, MesaBox emails them a short note from you, inviting them to tell you about their project. When they finish, you get the full brief with the fit rating.
Can I see which ad brought a phone call?
Yes, on MesaBox 24/7 and Scale. A tracked phone number goes with a source, and calls to it are counted under that source. MesaBox 24/7 includes 1 tracked number and MesaBox Scale includes 10.
Can my team answer calls first?
Yes. On a tracked number you can ring up to three of your phones first, at any time or only on the days and hours you choose. Whoever answers hears “Press 1 to take it, or 2 to send it to the assistant.” If nobody answers, or it goes to voicemail, the assistant takes the call.
Can I enter what a marketplace lead costs me?
Yes. Enter a cost per lead for a source, or what you spent each month. Analytics uses both.
