Central Inbox
Every Message. One Place.
Zero Missed Opportunities.
When customers reach out through chat, SMS, email, or forms, they expect fast answers. Slingshot’s central inbox gives your team one unified hub for communication so you never lose a lead or overlook an important customer message again.


What Is a Central Inbox And Why Does It Matter?
Home service companies are flooded with customer messages from every direction: webchat, Facebook, SMS, online quote forms, voicemail drops, and email. Without a shared inbox for home services, messages slip through the cracks. Does this sound familiar?
- Missed webchat conversations
- Lost SMS quote requests
- Unanswered emails about billing or scheduling
- No follow-up on picture-based estimates
- Slow replies during seasonal rushes
- No visibility into who handled what
