Pricing questions
- Is there a long contract?
- No. Starter and Shop are month to month. The full voice agent and the ops retainer cancel with 30 days' notice.
- Are phone and AI usage costs included?
- Normal hosting and phone usage are covered by the monthly fee. Unusually heavy usage is billed at cost.
- Will it guarantee more bookings?
- No. It catches the calls you'd otherwise miss. You still close the jobs.
- Why these prices?
- They're set to be competitive for small Capital Region shops, not padded because it's AI.
- Which plan fits a one-chair barbershop or an HVAC company?
- Starter. It's $149 a month, first month paid upfront, no setup fee, and covers about 200 calls a month. Shop adds direct booking and Spanish.
- What happens if I go over my minutes?
- On Starter, extra minutes are $0.25 each. You get an email at 80% so there are no surprises, and you can move up a plan instead.
