How It Works

From missed call to booked job — automatically.

Ringback sits silently behind your phone number and springs into action the moment a call goes unanswered.

Everything you need to never miss a lead again.

A complete look at the Ringback platform — from missed-call capture to booked job.

The Journey

Every missed call follows this path.

0s

Customer calls

A homeowner dials your number from Google, Yelp, or your truck decal.

~15s

Call goes unanswered

You're on a job. The call rings out, goes to voicemail, or is busy. Ringback detects it.

<3 min

Ringback fires

A personalized text lands on the caller's phone. No one typed it — Ringback generated and sent it.

~2 hrs

Follow-up continues

Over 3 days, 5 touches alternate between text and email. The lead stays warm.

Anytime

Lead replies — job booked

The moment they text back, every remaining message cancels. You pick up the conversation live.

How it works

Three steps, running in the background of every call.

Ringback sits behind your existing phone number and watches for missed calls. When one happens, it takes over — no dashboard-checking required.

01

Call goes unanswered

We set up forwarding so a missed call — rings out, busy, or fails — reaches Ringback. Exactly how that's wired depends on your phone setup (cell phone, office PBX, or SIP system), and we walk you through it.

02

Text and email go out automatically

A personalized text goes out within minutes, followed by a 5-touch sequence over the next 3 days — text, email, text, email, text — until the lead replies or the sequence ends.

03

Lead replies, sequence stops

The moment the lead texts back, every scheduled message cancels. You see it happen live on the dashboard, right down to the timestamp.

5-Touch Sequence

Every follow-up, timed perfectly.

Watch the exact sequence that runs for every missed call. Text, email, text, email, text — spread across 3 days until the lead replies.

1
SMS 12 min

First text

"Hi [Name], this is [Business] — sorry we missed you! Happy to help, just reply here or call back anytime."

2
Email 230 min

Follow-up email

"Hi [Name], we noticed you tried to reach us. We're here to help with [service]. Reply to this email or give us a call."

3
SMS 32 hr

Second text

"Hey [Name], just checking in. Still need help with [service]? We have availability today."

4
Email 424 hr

Next-day email

"Hi [Name], following up on your request. We'd love to help — here's what our customers say about us..."

5
SMS 548 hr

Final text

"Hi [Name], last message from us. If you still need [service], just reply. Otherwise, no worries!"

Response Logic

Smart enough to know when to stop.

Ringback doesn't blindly blast messages. Every lead is tracked through a decision tree.

Lead replies

All scheduled messages cancel instantly. The lead moves to "replied" on your dashboard.

No reply after 3 days

Sequence completes. Lead is marked cold. After 7 days, optional replay kicks in.

Lead opts out

Reply STOP and the number is permanently blocked. No more messages, ever.

AI calls back

If enabled, the AI voice agent dials within 30 seconds. Human replies still stop everything.

Technical Workflow

Under the hood.

For the technically curious — here's what happens millisecond by millisecond.

1. Twilio webhook fires on call status = "no-answer"
2. Supabase edge function receives webhook payload
3. Function looks up caller ID, business config, sequence template
4. SMS dispatched via Twilio API (<500ms)
5. Email dispatched via Resend/SendGrid (<1s)
6. Dashboard updates in realtime (Supabase realtime subscription)
7. Remaining touches scheduled in DB, cron picks them up
8. On reply: webhook fires → cancel all pending → update dashboard
9. Vapi call initiated (if AI callback enabled) within 30s
Features

Built for how service calls actually happen.

Not a generic CRM plugin — every part of Ringback is built around the missed call being the trigger.

Missed-call capture

Works on your existing number. Catches no-answer, busy, and failed calls the moment they happen — no manual logging.

5-touch follow-up

Text, email, text, email, text — spread across 3 days. Timed for when leads actually check their phone, not just at the moment they missed you.

Stops when they reply

Any reply — a text back or a call answered — cancels every remaining message instantly. No one gets pestered after they've responded.

Live dashboard

Watch every lead move through the sequence in real time, with reply rates and response times, right from your phone or laptop.

AI voice callback

Optional: have an AI voice assistant call missed leads back immediately, before the text even lands. Toggle it on per number, anytime.

Keeps your number

No new number to hand out or print on trucks. Callers keep dialing the number they already know — Ringback quietly catches it when a call goes unanswered.

AI Voice Callback

An AI agent that calls your missed leads back.

Optional: toggle it on per phone number. The AI introduces itself, apologizes for the missed call, and books the job — before the text even lands.

Natural conversation

Sounds like a real person. The AI asks about the job, offers available time slots, and confirms bookings.

Instant callback

Within 30 seconds of a missed call, the AI dials. If no answer, the text sequence still fires.

Transcript + recording

Every call is transcribed and stored. Review what the AI said, or listen to the recording later.

Replay Sequence

Leads that didn't reply get a second chance.

After 7 days of silence, Ringback can automatically re-queue the lead with a fresh, shorter sequence — no manual work.

Day 1–3

Primary sequence

5 touches across text and email. Most leads reply by touch 3.

Day 7

Silence detected

The lead never replied. Ringback marks it as "cold" automatically.

Day 8

Replay fires

A 3-touch sequence restarts automatically: text, email, text. Fresh chance, no manual work.

Integrations

Works with the tools you already use.

Ringback connects seamlessly with your existing stack — no rip and replace required.
