The answers on this page match the current supervised product.
Start here if the product feels unclear
Bay Office is a human-controlled follow-through system for plumbing calls.
A provider can handle the phone conversation. Bay receives the result, applies shop rules, and gives the team a reviewable next step. The current pilot does not autonomously book, dispatch, quote, or message customers.
Apply with one workflow No automatic billing or activation
Questions, answered plainly
The current product, without the pitch fog.
These answers describe the supervised pilot that exists now.
Is Bay Office an AI receptionist?
Not by itself. Vapi can conduct the voice conversation when configured. Bay receives the result and controls the operational workflow that follows.
Can Bay automatically book or dispatch a job?
Not in the current pilot. Bay creates and organizes the work, then a person reviews and acts.
Does Bay replace my dispatcher?
No. It is meant to reduce missing context and unowned follow-up, while the dispatcher or shop owner keeps judgment and control.
What is shadow mode?
Bay evaluates a real event and records what it would recommend, but it does not contact the customer or change operations automatically.
Why is Team Center part of it?
A call workflow fails when ownership and context disappear between people. Team Center keeps members, policies, credentials, and handoffs connected to the work.
Is payroll or HR compliance included?
No. Payroll, direct payouts, tax forms, SSNs, and employment-authorization workflows are outside the current scope.
How close is Bay to market?
It is ready for a supervised private pilot after deployment credentials and one real shop workflow are verified. It is not ready to promise unsupervised self-serve automation.
Product map
Call Desk is the wedge. Team Center supports it.
The rest of the product should earn its place by improving that operating loop.
02
Team Center supports it
Membership, communication, policies, and credentials keep the people behind the workflow connected.
03
Evidence before expansion
Shadow mode records recommendations and human decisions before any broader automation is considered.
What stays in your control
Clear boundaries are part of the product.
Bay organizes work and records decisions. It does not invent certainty or authority your shop has not granted.
- The pilot begins with one shop, one phone workflow, and a small review team.
- Provider configuration and real-world event quality are verified before live evaluation.
- The product expands only when recorded outcomes justify the next capability.
