Checked October 26, 2026. Prices were read on each vendor's own pricing page. ServiceTitan and Workiz do not publish prices; we say so. Prices change: re-check before you buy. Dooza Crew is our product and our top pick for the office side of a small electrical business; we say why, and where the field service tools fit better.

Best AI tools for electricians: the short answer

Our top pick for the office side of a small electrical business is Dooza Crew: AI employees for the jobs nobody has time for, such as hiring apprentices, supply price checks and filling forms, $49 a month for the whole organization, and it asks before it sends anything. If you want field service software with AI, Jobber has AI Receptionist as a $29 a month add-on, Housecall Pro starts at $59 a month billed annually, and ServiceTitan and Workiz do not publish prices. For answering calls, Rosie starts at $49 a month, Goodcall at $79, Smith.ai has a free plan and Dialzara starts at $29 a month.

Who this list is for

This list is for owner-operated electrical shops, from one van to roughly twenty, not national chains. Trades contractors are adopting AI, but cautiously. ServiceTitan's 2026 survey of trades contractors, run by Thrive Analytics, found "Active engagement with AI increased from 46% in December 2025 to 52% in September 2026, while the share of contractors watching from the sidelines declined from 22% to 18%." The same report says "Despite growing usage and demonstrated productivity benefits, only 11% of contractors place high or complete trust in the AI tools they use, while 58% report little or no trust." (ServiceTitan sells software, and the survey covers trades contractors in general, not only electricians, so read it as a vendor's view of the trades.)

A small electrical shop has an owner on a ladder or in a panel while the phone rings, a scheduler who is also the bookkeeper, and a pile of permit forms, supplier orders and hiring that waits until night. We found no electrician-specific AI product with a public price, so the tools below fall into three groups: field service software with AI built in, AI that answers the phone, and AI that does office work in your browser.

The tools, one by one

1. Dooza Crew (our product, top pick): AI employees for the shop's office work

Crew gives an electrical contractor AI employees, each with its own computer and browser and its own job. They work around the clock, work with your team in one chat, and pass work to each other. They work in the web-based tools you log in to with a browser, and Crew agents take phone calls too, included in the plan. Before an agent sends an email or clicks Send, Submit or Pay, it asks you to Approve, Edit or Reject.

Some jobs you could give it:

  • Hiring: you could give one agent the job of posting your apprentice or journeyman opening on job sites, sorting the replies and drafting answers to applicants for you to approve.
  • Supplies: you could give one agent the job of checking prices for wire, breakers and fixtures on your supplier websites and building the order, then waiting for you to approve before it clicks Pay.
  • Forms: you could give one agent the job of filling the fillable PDF, Word and Excel forms you upload, such as a vendor application or a rebate form. Scanned PDFs without form fields cannot be filled. You type passwords and 2FA codes yourself.
  • Reviews and email: you could give one agent the job of drafting replies to online reviews and routine supplier email for you to approve.
  • Price: free for 7 days (card required), then $49 a month for the whole organization (unlimited users and agents), AI usage included with a hard spending cap. At the cap it pauses and tells you.
  • Watch for: it is not a licensed electrician, so licensing, code, safety and pricing decisions stay with you. No electrical software (ServiceTitan, Jobber, Housecall Pro) is certified or integrated with it, so it does not sync with your field service software; it works only in web tools you log in to. Test yours during the trial.

2. ServiceTitan: the big field service platform, with AI in its Pro list

ServiceTitan covers dispatching, scheduling, call booking, invoicing, pricebook and mobile estimates. Its menu lists "AI Virtual Agent" and "Contact Center Pro" under "Get more with Pro".

3. Jobber: field service software with an AI Receptionist add-on

Jobber is built for small service businesses. Its pricing page offers an add-on called "Jobber AI Receptionist" described as "Never leave a call or text unanswered again."

  • Price: Core is $21 a month for 12 months, then $29 a month; Connect is $70 a month for 12 months, then $99 a month; Grow is $105 a month for 12 months, then $149 a month; all billed annually for one user (Jobber pricing). The AI Receptionist add-on is $29 a month. The page showed a banner "Offer ends October 30th".
  • Trial: "Try Jobber for free now. Pick a plan later." with "No credit card required".
  • Watch for: the low first-year prices are a promotion that ends, plans are per user, and the AI Receptionist is an extra $29 a month on top.

4. Housecall Pro: field service software with an AI Team

Housecall Pro covers online booking, invoices and payments, scheduling and dispatching, quotes and review management. Its AI page says "Your AI Team catches missed leads and clears the busywork, so growth doesn't cost more hours." A separate AI CSR "Answers calls and books jobs 24/7 so you never miss an opportunity."

5. Workiz: AI tools on the middle plan

Workiz offers field service software in three plans: Standard, Pro and Ultimate. The Pro plan is described as "The step up – AI tools and stronger automations."

6. Smith.ai AI Receptionist: a free plan to start

Smith.ai's AI Receptionist offers 24/7 AI call answering with recording, transcription and summaries, call routing and AI scheduling with Calendly and similar tools.

  • Price: Free $0 a month for 25 calls ($3.00 per call after that); Pro $150 a month ($2.00 per call); Enterprise $500 a month ($1.67 per call) (Smith.ai AI Receptionist pricing).
  • Free plan: "Try it and trust it first."
  • Watch for: a general small-business tool; the page names Calendly, Clio and Zapier but no field service software.

7. Rosie: a low-cost AI answering service

Rosie is a "24/7 AI answering service that knows your business." It answers calls, books appointments and captures leads.

  • Price: Professional $49 per month; Scale $149 per month, which adds booking and routing calls to your team; Growth $299 per month (Rosie pricing).
  • Trial: "Start your 7-day free trial."
  • Watch for: plans are tiered by volume, and it connects to other software through Zapier rather than named field service integrations.

8. Goodcall: pay per caller, not per minute

Goodcall bills by unique customer: "We never meter minutes."

  • Price: Starter $79 a month (100 unique customers); Growth $129 a month (500 unique customers); Scale $299 a month (2,000 unique customers) (Goodcall pricing).
  • Trial: "Start free with a demo agent."
  • Watch for: a storm week with many different callers pushes you past your plan's customer count, and Starter is aimed at a solo operator.

9. Dialzara: a low-cost AI receptionist

Dialzara answers calls, takes messages with custom questions and transfers calls, with add-ons for outbound calls, SMS and website chat.

  • Price: Business Lite $29/month for up to 60 minutes ($0.48/min over); Business Pro $99/month for 220 minutes; Business Plus $199/month for 500 minutes; Business Elite $349/month for 1000 minutes (Dialzara pricing).
  • Free trial: "7-day free trial", no contract, cancel anytime.
  • Watch for: you pay by talk minutes, so a storm week adds up. It is not trade-specific and names no field service software.

Free AI tools and trials for electricians

  • Free plan: Smith.ai AI Receptionist, 25 calls a month for $0.
  • Trials: Housecall Pro 14 days (no card), Workiz 7 days (no card), Jobber free trial (no card), Rosie 7 days, Dialzara 7 days, Dooza Crew 7 days (card required), Goodcall a free demo agent.
  • Demo or quote only: ServiceTitan.

Trust and checking the work

Trust is the real hurdle in the trades. A phone agent that books the wrong address or promises a price you never quoted costs more than a missed call. Before you route your main line to any AI, run test calls, including an emergency such as a power outage or a burning smell from a panel, listen to the recordings, and decide what it may never say, such as a firm price, an arrival time or safety advice. With Dooza Crew, agents ask you to Approve, Edit or Reject before they send an email or click Send, Submit or Pay, which keeps you the last stop on anything that leaves the building.

How to choose an AI tool for your shop

  1. Start with the job that costs you most. Missed calls while you are in a panel, after-hours coverage, hiring, or the paperwork that piles up at night.
  2. Check your field service software first. If you already run ServiceTitan, Jobber or Housecall Pro, see what AI it includes before you add another tool.
  3. Do the math your way. Rosie and Dialzara price by tier or minutes, Goodcall by unique caller, Smith.ai by call, Jobber by user, Dooza Crew as one price for the organization.
  4. Keep yourself in charge. AI can answer, draft and fill forms; quotes, code and safety calls and licensed work stay with you.
  5. Test before you switch. Use the free plan or trial and real calls for a week.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best AI tool for an electrician?

For the office work of a small electrical business, our top pick is Dooza Crew (our product): AI employees with their own computer and browser for jobs such as hiring apprentices, supply price checks and filling forms, $49 a month for the whole organization after a 7-day free trial, and it asks before it sends anything. For field service software with AI, look at Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan or Workiz. For answering calls, look at Smith.ai, Rosie, Goodcall or Dialzara.

Can AI answer my phone while I am on a job?

AI call answering tools take messages, answer common questions and book into a calendar around the clock. Jobber sells an AI Receptionist add-on, Housecall Pro sells a separate AI CSR, and Smith.ai, Rosie, Goodcall and Dialzara are general AI receptionists. Test with real calls, including a power-out or sparking-outlet emergency, before you trust the after-hours line.

How much do AI tools for electricians cost?

Prices we read on October 26, 2026: Jobber Core is $21 a month for the first 12 months, then $29, and its AI Receptionist add-on is $29 a month; Housecall Pro starts at $59 a month billed annually; Rosie starts at $49 a month; Goodcall at $79 a month; Smith.ai has a $0 plan and Pro at $150 a month; Dialzara starts at $29 a month. ServiceTitan and Workiz do not publish prices. Dooza Crew is $49 a month for the whole organization.

Does Dooza Crew work with ServiceTitan, Jobber or Housecall Pro?

No. We claim no integration with any field service software, and none is certified. Crew agents work in web-based tools you log in to with a browser, so ask in the free trial whether your software works that way. Crew is not a licensed electrician and does not quote, diagnose or do electrical work; code, safety and pricing decisions stay with you.

Is there a free AI receptionist for a small electrical contractor?

Smith.ai AI Receptionist has a free plan with 25 calls a month and $3.00 per call after that. Goodcall offers a free demo agent, Rosie and Dialzara have 7-day free trials, Housecall Pro has a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, and Workiz has a 7-day trial with no card.

Do contractors trust AI tools yet?

Not fully. In a survey of 1,017 trades contractors run for ServiceTitan, only 11% place high or complete trust in the AI tools they use, while 58% report little or no trust. That is why we favor tools that show their work and ask before they send or pay.
