Yes. Ava checks the caller's address against your defined area before she books or escalates. If it's inside your territory, she books or hands off the emergency. If it's outside, she handles it on your rules instead of sending you on an out-of-territory run. Your AI emergency service area is set once and applied on every call.
During setup you define your service area — by ZIP, city, or radius. From then on, every emergency call runs the same check:
She confirms the street address out loud before acting, so a fat-fingered number or a wrong town gets caught on the call, not in the truck.
At 2 AM, an out-of-area run is worse than a missed call — it's a truck rolling on a job you can't bill and shouldn't have taken. Ava keeps your on-call tech from chasing a broken spring three towns over.
It also keeps your emergency escalations clean. When your phone buzzes with a flagged emergency, you know it already passed the area check, so you're deciding whether to roll — not first figuring out if the address is even yours to cover.
If your area shifts — a new territory, a market you're testing, a ZIP you're dropping — you update the rule and Ava applies it on the next call.

Bottom line: Ava knows your emergency service area cold and checks every address against it — so the jobs you get paged for are the jobs you actually cover.
