The workday
The next cleaning request arrives mid-job
A recurring home clean, move-out deadline, deep clean, or office inquiry can each need a different first conversation. Clara keeps the details organized while you stay focused on the property and customer already in front of you.
Recurring home cleaning
Capture the property type, approximate size, preferred frequency, location, and timing for a new recurring request.
Deep and first-time cleans
Record the rooms, condition, priorities, pets, and access constraints without promising a final price.
Move-in and move-out work
Collect the deadline, occupancy, property size, requested add-ons, and who will provide access.
Existing customers
Take structured messages about schedule changes, cancellations, access, invoices, or a quality follow-up.
A better first conversation
Know the property before you price the clean
A useful cleaning inquiry covers the service, property, condition, access, and timing. Clara captures those starting facts and follows the quoting instructions you provide, while final scope, crew planning, and anything outside those rules come back to you.

Clear boundaries build trust
Clara handles the first conversation, not your whole business
You set the instructions. As you review calls and keep coaching Clara, it learns more about how you run the business and how you want questions, pricing, priorities, and next steps handled.
What Clara can do
- Separate recurring, one-time, move-out, and commercial requests
- Capture property, size, condition, pets, access, timing, and contact details
- Take reschedule, cancellation, invoice, and quality-follow-up messages
- Apply the service area and intake questions you provide
What Clara will not do
- Promise a crew, time, or service date without an approved scheduling rule
- Give a final price outside the pricing rules you provide
- Decide whether a condition, material, or request is safe for the crew
- Replace scheduling, quoting, payroll, or team-management software
Before you connect the phone
Questions from cleaning service owners
Can Clara tell recurring work from a one-time clean?
Yes. Configure separate questions for recurring home cleaning, deep cleans, move-in or move-out work, and commercial requests so the summary matches the type of job.
Can Clara quote a cleaning job?
Yes. Give Clara clear pricing instructions for the cleaning jobs you want it to quote. If a request falls outside those rules, Clara collects the property and scope details and leaves the final quote with you.
Can Clara handle schedule changes from existing customers?
Yes. Clara can take a structured message about a reschedule, cancellation, access change, invoice, or quality concern without inventing the crew’s availability.
What access information should Clara collect?
Clara can capture parking, stairs, building-entry needs, and who will arrange access. Sensitive codes and keys should follow the secure process you approve for your business.
Can I test different cleaning calls first?
Yes. Use the test-call step for recurring, deep-clean, move-out, commercial, and existing-customer scenarios before connecting customer calls.
Does Clara learn how I run my business?
Yes. Clara starts with the services, hours, service area, pricing, questions, and call rules you give it. As you review calls and keep coaching Clara, it learns more about how you run the business and becomes better trained around how you want calls handled.
