The 2:47 AM Storm Lead That Went to Your Competitor
The Call You Slept Through
It's 2:47 AM. A homeowner in your zip code just watched quarter-size hail pound their roof for 20 minutes. They pull up Google, type "roof damage insurance help near me," and call the first number they find - yours.
You're asleep. It goes to voicemail. By 8 AM, a competitor has already done the inspection, taken photos, and handed the homeowner a signed contingency agreement.
That's a $14,000 - $22,000 job. Gone.
Insurance Leads Don't Wait for Business Hours
Storm-chasing insurance work is a speed game. Homeowners are scared, adjusters move fast, and the contractor who gets a signed agreement before the adjuster shows up controls the supplement conversation.
If you're not responding to inbound leads within minutes - day or night - you're funding your competitor's truck payment.
Tom Answers When You're on the Roof
Tom is ARC's AI receptionist. He picks up every call, every text, every web form submission - at 2 AM or 2 PM.
When a storm lead comes in, Tom doesn't just take a message. He qualifies the claim (date of loss, insurance carrier, damage type), logs the contact into AccuLynx or JobNimbus automatically, and books the inspection on your calendar before the homeowner even hangs up.
One storm-belt roofer we work with ran a 6-week hail season and tracked that Tom captured 11 after-hours leads that previously would have gone cold. At their average job size, that's a season-changing difference in closed revenue.
He Also Knows the Language
Tom doesn't stumble when a homeowner mentions their adjuster wants an Xactimate scope or asks about the ITEL report for their shingles. He keeps the conversation moving and flags the file correctly so your supplement team picks it up clean.
No more leads dropped because someone on the crew forgot to update the CRM after a long inspection day.
What It Costs vs. What You're Losing
Tom comes in at the Starter tier - $1,499 per month, plus a one-time $5,000 onboarding. One captured after-hours insurance job in a storm week covers months of that cost.
If you want Tom running alongside Hudson (outbound follow-up on aged leads) and Sarah (keeping your existing insurance customers updated through the supplement process), the Full Team tier at $4,999/mo gives you four AI teammates working your pipeline around the clock.
Start Here
If after-hours storm leads are your biggest leak, hire Tom first. He's the one standing by when the hail hits at midnight and your phone rings while you're asleep. Try him free for 14 days and see how many calls you were actually missing - the number will probably surprise you.

The 2:47am storm lead — and why your best roofer never sees it
A storm rolls through. Homeowners text at night. The first roofer to reply gets the inspection.
The Adjuster Called at 6 PM. You Missed It. They Hired Someone Else.
A storm rolls through on a Tuesday, an adjuster calls at 6:03 PM to scope a supplement, and your voicemail costs you a $28k job.
The Adjuster Called at 4pm Friday. You Missed It.
A supplement request sitting in voicemail over the weekend costs more than the job - here's how one roofer stopped bleeding Friday leads.
