Autopilot vs Avoca AI
Avoca is the flagship of the AI front office wave: AI agents answering, booking, and coaching on top of ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, or FieldRoutes. It needs one of those systems underneath it. Autopilot plans start at $49 a month, and the $149 Full Throttle plan includes the full phone system, AI receptionist, QuickBooks, GPS, and marketing tools.

Who is Avoca AI?
Avoca AI is the biggest name in AI for home service call centers, a venture-backed company that raised $125 million at a reported $1 billion valuation in April 2026 from investors like Meritech, General Catalyst, and Kleiner Perkins. Its AI CSR answers every inbound call, text, and web chat around the clock and books jobs; on top of that sit outbound campaigns that re-engage past customers, and a Coach product that scores every call and grades your human CSRs. Over 1,000 service businesses use it.
The key thing to understand is what Avoca is not: it is not a CRM or field service platform. It is a layer that rides on top of one, with a certified ServiceTitan app plus Housecall Pro and FieldRoutes integrations. The jobs it books land in that system, which stays your system of record. Pricing is not published; you start with a demo and get a quote, and you keep paying for the FSM underneath as well.
For a large shop already committed to ServiceTitan with a busy call board, Avoca is genuinely strong, arguably the category leader. For a small crew, the math is different: two bills, two systems, and enterprise-grade coaching tools you may never open.
Who is Autopilot?
Autopilot is an all-in-one CRM built for home service businesses: junk removal, cleaning, landscaping, moving, and the rest of the trades that keep neighborhoods running. Plans start at $49 a month for scheduling, estimates, invoicing, payments, and online booking. Crew at $99 adds two-way texting and limited calling. Full Throttle at $149 adds the full phone system, AI receptionist, QuickBooks, GPS, and marketing tools. Plans include 1, 5, or 10 team members respectively.
It was built by a founder who ran his own junk removal company and got tired of paying for three tools that didn't talk to each other. Over 400 businesses run on it today, and it holds a 4.8 rating on the App Store and 4.9 on Google Play.

The bottom line
Two different tools for two different businesses. Here is the honest split.
Choose Avoca AI if…
- You already run ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, or FieldRoutes and want AI answering added on top
- You run a real call center and want every call scored and every CSR coached
- You want the most heavily funded, most proven vendor in the AI front office category
- You have the call volume to justify an enterprise AI quote
Choose Autopilot if…
- You do not want to buy and manage two systems to get AI answering your phone
- You want a published flat price, $49 to $149 a month, instead of a quote
- You are a crew of 1 to 15 without a call center to coach
- You want the phone system itself included, with a free local number, recording, and transcripts
