About Vandale Solutions

Vandale Solutions builds one thing: The Call Recovery System, a done-for-you AI phone receptionist for US home service companies. It answers the calls an owner cannot take (after hours, weekends, crews on the job), books the job into the real calendar, and emails the owner the lead right away.

Who we are

Vandale Solutions is the brand of Exclusive Recipe Unipessoal Lda, a company registered in Portugal in 2026 (company number 516366718) and run by its founder, Michael Gutman, from Birre, near Lisbon. We serve US home service businesses remotely: the receptionist runs in the cloud, the calls are US calls, and the lead lands on a US phone. There is no walk-in office; the address on our legal pages is the registered one.

Why contractors

A missed home service call is not a small loss. Two missed calls a week, a $3,000 average job, and a 30% close rate is about $93,600 a year ringing out to the next contractor on Google. Home service work also has the calls a generic answering service handles badly: a burst pipe at 2am, the price shopper, the warranty caller after a storm. We built the Call Recovery System around those calls, and we only sell it to businesses where the math works. If it does not, we say so on the first call.

How it is delivered

• Your phone account, in your name. We create the AI phone account, build your receptionist in it, and make you its Admin. It bills your own card and you can remove us any time. The alerts and lead log behind it run on our servers, included in the fee. If we part ways after your first paid month, you keep the account, the receptionist and its number; cancel during the free month and you keep the account and number, and we remove the receptionist. Our alerts and lead log stop.
• Flat retainer. $749 per month, flat. No setup fee, no per-minute markup, no contract. Your first month is free: your card goes on file at signup and nothing is charged for the first 30 days. Cancel before then and you pay us nothing (Service Terms, Section 5). Phone-platform usage (typically $20 to 40 per month) is billed directly to you at cost by the platform, on your own account. We never resell minutes or mark it up. It's the only cost outside the monthly fee.
• Go-live aimed at about 3 days from the intake call: build, the client's three test calls, then forward the line; every call in the first live week is reviewed by a person.
• Honest with callers. The receptionist opens by saying it is an assistant. It never pretends to be human, never quotes a binding price, and routes emergencies straight to the owner instead of parking them in next week's calendar.

What we do not do

The Call Recovery System is not an emergency dispatch service, not a licensed answering service, and not a call center. We do not make outbound sales calls for clients, and we do not sell call minutes. The full scope, in plain language, is in our Service Terms.

What we build with

Vandale is a small AI-automation studio with a fixed toolbox: automations, voice agents, text agents, and simple dashboards. The Call Recovery System is our flagship and the only offer on this site. Anything outside those four capabilities we decline.
