Facebook Messages Answered Instantly. Social Leads Captured Automatically.
Someone discovers your business on Facebook, clicks 'Send Message,' and asks about a job. Without AI, that message sits unread in your Page Inbox. With Rapid Receptionist, they get an instant professional response and you get a lead.

Tell me about your business and I'll show you how I handle your calls
It's 8:30pm on a Thursday. A homeowner in Norwich is scrolling Facebook when she sees your before-and-after photos of a driveway you relaid last week. She clicks on your page, reads a few reviews, and sends a message: 'Hi, I've got a block paving driveway that needs relaying. About 40sqm. Do you cover NR2?' You're watching TV with the family and your Facebook notifications are off. Without AI, that message sits in your inbox until tomorrow morning — if you remember to check it at all. By then she's messaged two other landscapers. With Rapid Receptionist, the AI responds in seconds, captures her details, confirms you cover NR2, and lets her know you'll be in touch tomorrow with more information. You've got a qualified lead waiting when you open your phone in the morning.
Up and Running in 3 Simple Steps
We handle everything — you just keep working.
We Connect Your Facebook Page
We link your Facebook Business Page to Rapid Receptionist. Your page stays exactly as it is — we just add AI-powered responses to incoming Messenger conversations.
AI Handles Messenger Enquiries
When someone messages your Facebook page about a job, the AI reads their message, understands the enquiry, and sends a professional response. It captures their name, what they need, and where they are.
Lead Details Sent to You
Every Messenger enquiry generates a lead notification — the customer's details, their request, and urgency. You follow up at a time that suits you, with all the context you need.
What This Channel Does for Your Business
Captures Social Leads
Facebook is where your past customers recommend you and new customers discover you. When someone clicks 'Send Message' on your page, they're a warm lead. Without AI, that message sits in your Page Inbox unread. With it, they get an instant response.
Boosts Your Response Rate Badge
Facebook displays a 'Typically replies within...' badge on your page. If you take hours or days to respond, it shows. AI Messenger gets you the green 'Typically replies instantly' badge — which tells every visitor you're a responsive, professional business.
Works With Your Ad Campaigns
If you run Facebook ads for your trade business, a percentage of clicks generate Messenger enquiries rather than phone calls. Without AI, those leads sit unanswered while your ad spend ticks away. With it, every ad-generated enquiry gets an immediate response.
Handles Community Group Referrals
When someone in a local Facebook group asks 'Can anyone recommend a plumber?' and someone tags your page, the enquiry often comes through Messenger. The AI catches these referral leads and responds before the customer has time to message another business.
Active When You're Not
Facebook browsing peaks in the evening and at weekends — exactly when you're least likely to be checking your business page. The AI handles messages at 10pm on a Saturday just as professionally as it does at 10am on a Tuesday.
Professional First Contact
Social media enquiries are casual by nature. A professional AI response sets the right tone from the start — it tells the customer you run a proper business, not just a bloke with a van who might or might not get back to them.
AI Facebook Messenger is £19/month — available as an add-on to the Core plan or standalone. Unlimited messages, no per-message charges. £299 one-time setup. No contracts, 30-day money-back guarantee. See full pricing →
Find AI Facebook Messenger for Your Trade
Every trade gets a bespoke configuration — built with your terminology, your emergencies, and the way your customers talk.
Built by Tradesmen, for Tradesmen
We didn't build Rapid Receptionist from a boardroom. We built it because we've seen firsthand what happens when tradesmen miss calls — they lose work they should've won. We understand the trades because we've lived them. We know you can't answer the phone when you're on a job. That's exactly why this service exists.
Every feature, every channel, every response has been designed by people who understand what it's like to be up a ladder when the phone rings. This isn't some generic tech product — it's a tool built specifically for your world.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the AI respond to Facebook messages?
When someone sends a message to your Facebook Business Page, the AI reads the content, identifies what they're asking about, and sends one professional response. It acknowledges their enquiry specifically — not a generic auto-reply. It captures their name and request details and lets them know you'll be in touch. The response goes out within seconds of the message arriving.
Does this replace my current Facebook page setup?
Not at all. Your Facebook page stays exactly as it is — your posts, your reviews, your photos, your followers. We simply connect the AI to your Messenger inbox so incoming enquiries get an instant response. You can still post, reply to comments, and manage your page as normal.
What about messages from existing customers?
The AI responds to new incoming enquiries. If you're already in a Messenger thread with an existing customer, the AI won't jump in. It handles first-contact messages — the ones that would otherwise sit in your inbox while you're on site.
Will this affect my Facebook ads?
Only positively. If you're running Facebook ads with a 'Send Message' call to action, the AI ensures every enquiry gets an instant response. This improves your conversion rate and means your ad spend actually generates leads rather than unanswered messages.
Do I need a Facebook Business Page?
Yes, you'll need a Facebook Business Page (not a personal profile). If you already have one — and most tradesmen do — you're good to go. If you don't, we can help you set one up as part of the onboarding process. It takes about fifteen minutes.
My Facebook page doesn't get many messages. Is it worth it?
Even a few messages a month can represent real revenue. A single kitchen refit enquiry could be worth £5,000-£15,000. At £19/month, you only need to capture one extra lead every few months to cover the cost many times over. And once you respond instantly, you'll likely see more messages coming in — because Facebook shows visitors that you reply quickly.
How much does AI Facebook Messenger cost?
