Your numbers, not ours
Missed call
calculator.
What do missed calls cost your business? Most answers start with someone else’s statistic. This one starts with yours: how many calls you miss, how many are real work, how many you would win, and what a job is worth.

An estimate from the numbers above, not a promise. Linevio answers the calls and gets the details to your team; winning the work is still up to you. Starting numbers are examples to change, not industry averages. The plan fee excludes setup, extra minutes, and taxes.
How the math works
Five numbers.
Nothing hidden.
Every figure on this page comes from a number you can see and change. Here is what each one means and why it is there.
- Missed calls a week
- Calls that rang out or reached voicemail in a normal week. Your carrier’s call log is the place to count them. Leave out callers you reached later and still won.
- Share that are new work
- Not every missed call is a job. Spam, vendors, and current customers checking in come off the top, so only possible new work stays in.
- Share you usually win
- Of the new work that reaches you by phone, how much turns into a booked job. Your own close rate, not a borrowed one.
- Average job
- What one typical job bills. The yearly figure is revenue, so it answers what is at stake, not what lands in your pocket.
- Left from one job
- What remains after labor, materials, and other job costs. The plan comparison uses this number, so a plan is weighed against profit rather than the full ticket.
Where Linevio fits
We answer.
You win the work.
Linevio answers the calls that would have reached voicemail, day and night, on the number you already have. Your virtual phone assistant, powered by AI, takes the caller’s details and connects them to your team by the rules you approve. On Business and Pro, it can also book from your calendar.
It does not quote jobs, close sales, or call anyone back for you. Your team gets a written summary of every call and makes the next move.
Before you pick up
Questions
owners ask.
Is it true that 62% of calls to small businesses go unanswered?
That figure is repeated everywhere, but it traces back to one small study, and articles quoting it disagree about its details. Your own call log is a better source than any national average. We looked at where the common missed-call statistics come from in our article on which ones hold up.
Where do the starting numbers come from?
They are round examples chosen so the arithmetic is easy to follow. They are not industry averages or forecasts. Replace each one with your own.
Will Linevio win those jobs back for me?
No one can promise that. Linevio answers the calls that would have gone to voicemail, takes the details, and connects callers or books them by your rules. Winning the work is still up to you. The calculator shows what is at stake, not what you will earn.
Why is the plan compared with what is left from a job?
Because a plan is paid from profit, not from the full price of a job. Comparing it with the whole ticket would make any plan look cheaper than it is.
Busy hands. Open lines.
