An Alberta alternative to Dark Harbor
Dark Harbor is an AI receptionist that markets to Alberta businesses, including trades — a real Alberta-focused option. Here's the honest difference: HeyDiane publishes its flat Canadian-dollar pricing up front, names the field service software it integrates with directly, and is configured one-on-one by the founder for your specific trade.

How HeyDiane is different
Diane is built around your business by a real person in Alberta — your service area, your pricing and after-hours rates, your emergency and escalation rules — then tuned on live calls. She answers the calls you can't, books routine jobs into your calendar, quotes the after-hours fee you set, and texts your cell on a true emergency. On the Crew plan she creates the job directly in ServiceTitan, Jobber, or Housecall Pro. The price is published and flat: $0 founder setup and $199 a month CAD, month-to-month, one-click cancel — no quote required to see what it costs.
The fair tradeoff: Dark Harbor offers bilingual English/French support, which matters if a share of your callers prefer French — a real advantage HeyDiane doesn't currently match. Where HeyDiane wins for most Alberta trades shops is transparency and integration: published flat CAD pricing and named ServiceTitan/Jobber/Housecall Pro integration, rather than a custom quote and unnamed software.

Common questions
How is HeyDiane different from Dark Harbor?
HeyDiane publishes flat Canadian-dollar pricing ($199/mo, no setup fee) and names its integrations — ServiceTitan, Jobber, and Housecall Pro — directly. Diane is configured one-on-one by the founder for your Alberta trade, with recording disclosure that meets CRTC and Alberta consent rules.
Does HeyDiane support French?
Not at this time — Diane currently operates in English. If a meaningful share of your callers prefer French, a bilingual service is a fair reason to choose differently. For English-language Alberta trades calls, Diane is configured to your shop and your emergencies.
Can I see the price without a sales call?
Yes. HeyDiane's pricing is public and flat: $0 setup and $199 a month CAD on the Shop plan (Crew and Fleet add FSM integration and multi-location). No quote required. Live in 48 hours.
