Smart Site AI vs FieldEdge: Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use FieldEdge and Smart Site AI together?

Yes. FieldEdge does not currently offer a public API, but contractors use Smart Site AI to capture and qualify leads and FieldEdge to dispatch and manage those jobs. Leads can be transferred manually between systems. Smart Site AI handles the lead capture side while FieldEdge handles the field operations side.

Is Smart Site AI a FieldEdge alternative?

No. They solve different problems. FieldEdge manages HVAC and plumbing field operations -- dispatching, flat rate pricing, service agreements, and invoicing. Smart Site AI captures leads with AI voice agents, missed call text-back, and automated follow-up. Most contractors need both.

What does Smart Site AI do that FieldEdge doesn't?

Smart Site AI provides an AI voice agent, missed call text-back, automated follow-up sequences, AI live chat, AI form qualification, reputation management, and a full SEO website on the Pro plan. These are lead capture and marketing tools that FieldEdge does not offer.

Which should I get first for my HVAC or plumbing company?

If you are losing leads and missing calls, start with Smart Site AI. If you need dispatching, flat rate pricing, and service agreement management, start with FieldEdge. Ideally, use both -- Smart Site AI fills your pipeline with qualified leads and FieldEdge runs the operations to get those jobs done.

Does FieldEdge have AI lead capture?

FieldEdge focuses on HVAC and plumbing field operations, not lead capture. They offer basic call booking but do not include an AI voice agent, missed call text-back, or automated lead qualification and follow-up sequences.

Ready to Keep Your Techs Busy with More Service Calls?

Smart Site AI captures, qualifies, and follows up with every lead -- so your FieldEdge dispatch board is always full. Stop losing jobs to missed calls.
