Calls

Quote hunter

Movers, contractors, repairs: pally phones the list, gets real quotes, and books the winner on your go.

The best price is usually three phone calls deep, which is why nobody finds it. Give pally the job and it finds well-reviewed businesses, calls them with one ok from you, and reports each quote back in the thread as calls finish.

The routine

How it works

Describe the job the way you would to a friend: what needs doing, when, and any constraint that matters, like a flat rate or a morning slot. Pally finds well-reviewed local businesses that actually handle that kind of work and shows you the list before any phone rings.

One ok covers the round of calls: you approve the set and the purpose, and pally gets dialing. On each call it asks the questions that make quotes comparable, including price structure, availability for your date, what is included, and anything specific you flagged.

Results come back in the thread as the calls finish, one short report per business. When the round is done, pally lays out the comparison and tells you which option it would pick and why, with the runner-up in case your favorite falls through.

Booking stays your call. Say the word and pally phones the winner back to confirm the job with your details. If the quotes all miss, send it back out: widen the search, change the day, or add a question for the next round.

Before you start

Common questions

Do I approve every single call?+

No. You approve the round: how many businesses and what pally is asking them for. The individual calls then run under that one ok, and each result reports back in the thread as it lands. Booking the winner is a separate go from you.

What does pally actually ask on the calls?+

The things that make quotes comparable: price and how it is structured, availability for your date, what the service includes, and any question you added. If a business asks something only you can answer, pally comes back to you rather than guessing.

Which plan does this need?+

Real outbound phone calls are part of Pally Max. On Max, pally can call the whole list, report each quote, and phone the winner back to book once you say go.
