Solution
Reach every new lead in under 60 seconds — automatically.
78% of leads buy from the company that responds first. Talos builds AI follow-up systems that call, text, and email new leads instantly, then keep going until they convert.
The short answer
AI follow-up automation contacts every new lead within 60 seconds across phone, SMS, and email — then runs a multi-step nurture for weeks — so you respond first, qualify faster, and close 3–5× more of the leads you already pay to generate.
Who it's for
If your leads are going cold, this is for you

Sales teams 9-to-5
After-hours leads sit overnight and lose interest.

Hard to follow up across SMS, email, and voice consistently.
Lean agencies & SMBs
No SDR team to chase every inbound.

In practice
How it played out for one client
Real estate brokerage, Texas
Real EstateChallenge
Agents averaged 4+ hour response time on Zillow leads. Most leads went cold before first contact.
Solution
Talos deployed instant AI voice + SMS follow-up with qualification and direct booking to agent calendars.
Result
Average first-touch dropped from 4+ hours to under 45 seconds. Lead-to-showing rate tripled in 90 days.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Most won't. We use natural-sounding voice and conversational SMS. We're transparent on request.
Yes. Custom follow-up builds integrate with HubSpot, Salesforce, GoHighLevel, Pipedrive, and most modern CRMs. If your phones run on Talos Connect, its built-in connections also send each new lead, contact, call summary and booked appointment to HubSpot, Salesforce, GoHighLevel, Pipedrive, Zoho CRM, Close, monday.com or Airtable automatically, set up by our team.
We build in consent-tracking and respect opt-outs. We'll align the cadence with your legal requirements.
Yes. The same instant-response sequence runs for home services, law firms, marketing agencies, and medical practices — any business where inbound leads arrive by web form, ad click, or phone. The cadence and the qualification questions are built around your trade during the sequence-design step, so a plumbing lead and a personal-injury lead are not asked the same things.
The first touch still goes out within 60 seconds, 24/7. If the lead shows buying intent, hand-off rules route them to a human; otherwise the multi-channel sequence keeps running across the following days and automatically re-touches stalled leads weeks later.
