Same 24/7 answering. Sophiie also runs the chatbot on your website, captures web leads and calls them back, then quotes the job, books it in, dispatches the crew and chases the invoice.
Compared against Hey Jodie's published pricing page and site footer, 3 August 2026.
Hey Jodie picks up when you cannot. So does Sophiie, 24/7, on every plan. The difference is what happens in the next five minutes. A missed call is rarely where the money actually goes: it goes on the quote nobody sent, the job that never made it onto the schedule, and the invoice still sitting unpaid three weeks later. Hey Jodie hands you a message and the work is still yours. Sophiie answers the phone and then does the work. So whether you just want the missed calls picked up, or you want the quotes, the scheduling and the invoices handled as well, Sophiie is the better bet either way.

Four reasons, each one already proven in the table above rather than asserted here.
Every trade
Plumbers, sparkies, HVAC techs, landscapers and the rest each get Sophiie trained on their own services, rates and after-hours rules. Your trade changes what Sophiie says and what it books. It does not change how much of the job it can carry.
34 of 34
Sophiie answers 24/7, records and transcribes, qualifies the lead and books the job, exactly as Hey Jodie does. Then it quotes the work, schedules it, dispatches the crew, raises the invoice and chases it. Of the 34 capabilities compared above, Sophiie has all 34. Hey Jodie fully has 5.
Beyond the phone
A chatbot on your website answers questions and books jobs, a webform captures the rest, and Sophiie calls those leads back. Hey Jodie lives on the phone line only, so a customer who fills in your website form at 9pm is a customer it never sees.
11 tools
Xero, QuickBooks, Google Calendar, Outlook, ServiceM8, simPRO, Gmail, SMS, Zapier and webhooks, on every paid plan. Hey Jodie's integrations page names two CRMs, and its own plan table holds Zapier back for the top tier.

You do not have to cancel anything to try it. Sophiie runs alongside whatever you have until the day you decide it is doing the job better.
No card, no countdown and no setup fee. You get the job management platform straight away, so you can look around properly before a single call is diverted.
Add your services, your rates, your hours and what you want said after hours. Import your existing customers so the history comes with you.
Google Calendar or Outlook, and Xero or QuickBooks. Bookings land in the diary you already keep and invoices land in the books you already run.
Point the number Hey Jodie answers at Sophiie. Keep your number, keep your voicemail, and run the two side by side for as long as you want the comfort of it.
Once the bookings, quotes and invoices are landing on their own, stop your Hey Jodie subscription. Most teams are live the same day they sign up.
Check your own notice period with Hey Jodie before you cancel. We cannot see the terms you signed.
Everything after the call. A receptionist hands you a message and the work is still yours. Sophiie turns the call into a quote, books it into the schedule, dispatches the right person, raises the invoice and follows up when it is not paid.
Sophiie answers, books, quotes, invoices and follows up, so you stay on the tools.
