Starter starts at $250/month plus $999 setup, with 500 voice minutes/month. Growth starts at $500/month plus $2,500 setup, with 1,000 voice minutes/month. Multi-Location starts at $350/location/month plus $4,500 setup, with a 2-location minimum and 1,000 voice minutes per location/month. Final setup and monthly prices depend on agreed call flows, languages, tool connections, volume and support. Multi-Location starts at $4,500 setup for up to 3 locations using shared rules. An added location starts at $500 setup plus $350/month and adds 1,000 minutes to the shared monthly total. Separate call designs, languages, and integrations affect the written proposal. Extra AI voice minutes cost $0.35/minute (35 cents). On Multi-Location plans, extra-minute charges start only when your account uses all its shared monthly minutes. Phone service, text messages, email, and other software fees are charged separately at the provider's rates. Unused voice minutes do not carry into the next month. Each plan includes a monthly amount of time for small changes you request after the initial setup period. Building the agreed system, checking it before launch, watching calls and making adjustments during onboarding, and fixing faults in the agreed work do not use up that time. Unused change time does not carry into the next month. Plan for the first delivery about two weeks after we start, once we have the business details and access we need. Then we spend two weeks watching how calls go and making adjustments. Both stages are included in setup. Live calls start after we check the system and you approve it. We agree the timing for your project before work begins.
Process
Built around your daily work.
We confirm the scope, build and connect the agreed tools, and review the result with your team before launch.
The voice agent can collect job details and pass the request to your team. Your team still prepares estimates that need a closer look.
