How urgency detection works

1. Lexi asks the right questions

During every call, Lexi asks about the situation and whether it's urgent. She listens for context clues - not just keywords, but the full picture of what the caller is describing.

2. AI evaluates the urgency

Based on the conversation, AI assigns one of three levels. HIGH for active emergencies like flooding or gas leaks. MEDIUM for issues that need attention soon but aren't dangerous. LOW for routine requests and quotes.

3. You triage at a glance

Open your inbox, see the color-coded urgency tags, and know exactly which calls to return first. No listening to 6 voicemails to figure out which one is the emergency.

What urgency levels mean

HIGHReturn immediately

Active emergencies. Water flooding, no heat in winter, gas smell, electrical sparking, security alarm. These callers need help now and will call someone else if you don't respond fast.

MEDIUMReturn within hours

Issues that need attention but aren't emergencies. Slow drain, strange noise from HVAC, flickering lights. The caller wants to get it fixed soon but isn't in danger.

LOWReturn when convenient

Routine requests. Looking for a quote, wants to schedule maintenance, asking about availability. These callers are happy to wait for a callback within a day or two.

Example: a busy Monday morning

You get to the office Monday at 8 AM with 5 missed calls from the weekend. Without urgency detection, you'd listen to each voicemail one by one, trying to figure out which ones matter most.

With CallHush, you open your inbox and see:

HIGH Burst pipe in basement, water everywhere

MED AC making grinding noise, still cooling but sounds bad

LOW Wants a quote for bathroom remodel

LOW Asking about availability for annual furnace tune-up

LOW Needs a second opinion on a roofing estimate

You call the burst pipe first. Then the grinding AC. The rest can wait until after lunch. Total time to triage: 30 seconds.
