The real question isn't the sticker — it's what a missed call costs you. An AI receptionist replaces missed calls, after-hours leads that hit voicemail, and the gap a full-time front-desk hire leaves. Because the value scales with your call volume, integrations, and locations, we scope the investment live on a call.
An AI receptionist isn't a line item — it's a replacement for revenue that's leaking out of your business right now. Here's what it takes off the table.
A missed call can cost you a customer — most never call back, they call the next name on the list. The AI answers every one, on the first ring, every time.
The inquiries that come in when your front desk is closed or slammed. Coverage that never sleeps captures the leads your competitors send to voicemail.
A full-time hire carries salary, benefits, training, and turnover — and still only covers business hours. The AI extends your front desk 24/7, no gaps.
Every build is custom-scoped on a call. We don't publish a public number because an honest one depends entirely on these five things — and they're different for every business.
| What drives it | Lighter scope | Heavier scope |
|---|---|---|
| Call volume | Steady, predictable inbound | High volume, seasonal peaks, overflow |
| Integrations | One calendar (Google or Outlook) | Native CRM/PMS — Dentrix, Clio, Follow Up Boss, Mindbody |
| Locations | Single location | Multi-location routing, franchise rollout |
| Custom workflows | Answer, book, route | No-show salvage, intake, review requests, escalation logic |
| Compliance | Standard service business | HIPAA BAA, multi-state scripts, regulated verticals |
Starter is the lean build — a custom AI receptionist on your number with a calendar integration and ongoing tuning. Scale adds native CRM/PMS integration, automations like no-show salvage and review requests, and multi-location routing. Command is the heavier build for multi-location and regulated operations with deeper integrations and dedicated support. AI Super Employee goes beyond reception into a full agentic workflow that books, follows up, and runs back-office tasks. We map you to the right one on the call — and put the investment in writing the same day.
Contact Sales →The clearest way to think about return is simple: every call you were missing that now becomes a booked customer is revenue you weren't capturing before. In high-value verticals, a single recovered customer can outweigh the cost of running the system. Here's how that plays out.
Roughly a third of new-patient calls were hitting voicemail. The AI catches every one, 24/7. Each recovered new patient is high-LTV revenue that was walking to a competitor.
Slow intake was leaking matters to faster-responding firms. Instant pickup and qualification means more signed matters. A single recovered matter dwarfs the cost of the build.
Sub-5-minute responses convert dramatically better than hours-late ones. Instant answering on every lead. A sharp conversion lift across the whole agent roster.
We model your specific recovered-revenue math on the scoping call — using your call volume and what a new customer is worth to you — so you can see the payback on your own numbers before you commit.
The honest answer is: it's worth more than whatever it replaces. An AI receptionist replaces missed calls, after-hours leads that go to voicemail and never call back, and — in many cases — the cost and turnover of a full-time front-desk hire. A single missed call can cost you a customer, and most businesses miss far more calls than they realize. The value is coverage that never sleeps, never takes lunch, and never lets a lead hit voicemail. Because the value scales with your call volume and what each new customer is worth to you, we scope the investment live on a call instead of listing a one-size number.
Because an honest number depends entirely on your business. A solo practice with one calendar and a single-location HVAC company with three trucks need very different builds — different call volume, different integrations, different workflows. A public price list would either overcharge the simple build or undersell the complex one. We scope the investment live on a 30-minute call so the number reflects your reality, and we put it in writing the same day.
Three things. First, missed calls — the new-patient or new-customer calls that hit voicemail and never call back. Second, after-hours and overflow leads — the inquiries that come in nights, weekends, and during peak rushes when your front desk is slammed. Third, the gap a full-time front-desk hire leaves: even a great human receptionist sleeps, takes breaks, gets sick, and eventually turns over. An AI receptionist covers all three, 24/7, every call, every time.
Five things drive scope: call volume (how many calls and minutes you handle), integrations (the CRM, PMS, calendar, or booking system the agent has to talk to), number of locations (single-location is simpler than multi-location routing), custom workflows (no-show salvage, intake, review requests, escalation rules), and compliance needs like HIPAA or industry-specific requirements. A heavier build on any of these means more engineering, which is exactly why we scope it on a call rather than guess.
On a 30-minute scoping call. We walk through your call volume, the systems you need the agent to integrate with, how many locations you run, the workflows you want automated, and any compliance requirements. From that, we map you to the right bundle and put a written investment figure in front of you the same day. No deck, no sales theater — just a number that matches the build.
Four bundles, scoped to fit how much you need the system to do. Starter is the lean build — a custom AI receptionist live on your number with a calendar integration and ongoing tuning, ideal for single-location businesses. Scale adds native CRM/PMS integration, automations like no-show salvage and review requests, and multi-location routing. Command is the heavier build for multi-location and regulated operations with deeper integrations and dedicated support. AI Super Employee goes beyond reception into a full agentic workflow that books, follows up, and runs back-office tasks. We map you to the right one on the call.
It's a different value equation, and usually a far better one. A full-time front-desk hire carries salary, benefits, training, and turnover — and still only covers business hours, leaving nights, weekends, and overflow uncovered. An AI receptionist works every hour of every day, handles unlimited simultaneous calls, and never leaves leads on voicemail. In most cases it doesn't replace your front desk so much as extend it — the human handles in-person and complex calls, the AI catches everything else, including the calls you're losing right now.
The clearest way to think about ROI is recovered missed calls, not features. If you're missing even a fraction of your inbound calls — and most businesses are — each recovered call that turns into a booked customer is revenue you weren't capturing before. For high-value verticals like dental, legal, medspa, and real estate, a single recovered new customer can be worth far more than the cost of running the system. We model your specific recovered-revenue math on the scoping call so you can see the payback for your own numbers.
Yes. HIPAA-regulated builds add a Business Associate Agreement, compliant voice infrastructure, encrypted call recording, audit logs, and PHI handling controls. Multi-state and other regulated verticals add per-jurisdiction scripts and disclaimers. These deepen the build, which is one of the factors we account for when we scope your investment on the call — dental, medspa, and healthcare practices are a routine fit.
Yes. The same agent can answer by phone, SMS, and a website chat widget, and it can run bilingual — Spanish and English is the most common pairing. Which channels and languages you need is part of the scope we map on the call, because each one shapes the build.
Off-the-shelf SaaS tools are quick to switch on but generic — limited customization, shallow or no integration, and no one accountable when it breaks. A custom build is shaped around your call flows, your systems, and your business knowledge, and you have a team that owns the outcome. The right choice depends on call volume, integration depth, and compliance needs — which is exactly what we work through on the scoping call.
Engagements are built to keep proving their value, not to lock you in. After the initial build and tuning window — the time it takes to tune the agent against real call data — most engagements run month-to-month. Heavier multi-location and regulated builds may carry a minimum term because of integration depth. We're transparent about terms on the scoping call before anything is signed.
Book a 30-minute scoping call. We'll look at your call volume, integrations, locations, and workflows, map you to the right bundle, and give you a written investment figure the same day. That's the fastest way to a real number — one that fits your business instead of a generic price list.
