Who wrote this: Gigabit, which builds AI receptionists. Our prices are not in the data or in any figure. They are shown on their own, under “For comparison, our prices”. Every price below is the vendor’s own, read on its pricing page on 10 November 2026. Figures we worked out are marked “computed” and show the formula.
78 published plans from 20 vendors.
One row per plan, in the vendor's own words. The price is for monthly billing unless the row says otherwise. The last column is computed: the monthly price divided by the minutes, calls or customers the plan includes.

What 100 and 500 calls a month would cost.
These figures are our arithmetic on the published prices. No vendor publishes them.
Formula. monthly cost = plan price + (units used − units included) × overage rate, for each product’s cheapest plan. cost per call = monthly cost ÷ calls. Units used: 1 per call on per-call plans; 3 minutes per call on per-minute plans, which is our example call length, not a measured one. A plan is skipped when the month runs over its allowance and the vendor publishes no overage rate. Add-ons, setup, taxes and your own phone line are not included.

Four things in the prices.
1. Vendors bill in three different units.
Of the 13 AI receptionist products, 7 bill by the minute, 3 by the call and 1 by the unique customer. 2 publish no call or minute allowance. Minute plans cost less for short calls. Call plans cost less for long ones.
2. Overage rates vary, and some are not published.
Published overage runs from $0.20 to $0.48 a minute and from $0.45 to $3.00 a call. 5 products publish no rate in dollars: Rosie, Allo, Sameday, Slang AI, Abby Connect.
3. Staffed services publish higher prices per minute and per call.
Entry plans at the 4 staffed services run from $99 a month (PATLive, the 50 minutes plan) to $300 (Smith.ai, the Starter plan). Their published overage is $1.49 to $2.99 a minute, against $0.20 to $0.48 on the AI plans, or $8.50 to $11.50 a call, against $0.45 to $3.00.
4. Platforms bill by the minute, and the build is extra.
The 4 voice platforms publish $0.05 to $0.31 a minute. At 300 minutes a month that is $15 to $93, computed as rate × minutes. Someone still has to build, test and maintain the agent, and some rates leave out the language model or the phone line.
What Gigabit charges.
Read from the same code as our pricing pages. We build receptionists to order, so these are not like-for-like with the monthly plans above.
- Custom AI receptionist: from $8,000, one flat fee. A Standard build covers chat and up to two integrations. Voice, three or more integrations and HIPAA scope are priced higher, in writing after scoping. Telephony, messaging and model usage are separate running costs. AI receptionist service

How the tracker was made.
Date checked
Every pricing page was opened on 10 November 2026. Each product’s heading in the table links to the page, so you can see what it says now.
What counts
- AI receptionists and AI phone answering products sold to small businesses, the voice platforms people build them on, and answering services staffed by people, for comparison.
- Only prices on the vendor’s own pricing page. No third-party price lists, review sites or quotes from sales calls.
- One row per published plan: the price, the billing unit (a month, a minute or a location), what is included, the overage rate and the page address. The wording follows the vendor’s page.
- The main figure is the price on monthly billing. Where a vendor also publishes an annual-billing price, it is in the row.
- All prices are in US dollars, as published.
What is left out
- Plans with no published price, such as enterprise and custom tiers.
- Add-ons, setup work, phone numbers, text messages and taxes, unless a row’s note says otherwise.
- PATLive plans above 5,000 minutes, which sit behind a “show larger plans” control.
- No price on the vendor's page (6): Synthflow. Sold as an annual enterprise agreement; the page lists no price. Numa. The page lists no plans or prices, only a demo request. Loman. Plans are named but no price is shown. Arini. No pricing page; the site offers a demo and an ROI calculator. RingCentral AI Receptionist. The product page we opened shows no price. Jobber AI Receptionist. The feature page we opened shows no price.
- Prices behind a form (2): AnswerConnect. The plans page is a quote form; its /pricing address returned an error. AnswerForce. Plans load behind a sign-up form.
- Page could not be read (1): Moneypenny (VoiceNation). The page refused our request; VoiceNation's pricing address redirects to it.
Computed figures
- Price ÷ included: the monthly price divided by the plan’s included minutes, calls or customers.
- Cost at 100 and 500 calls: the formula above the cost table, with a 3-minute call as the example length.
- Entry price: a product’s lowest paid monthly plan that includes some usage. Free tiers and pay-as-you-go plans with no allowance are skipped. The median takes one entry price per product.
Limits
- One day. Vendors change plan pages often, and several prices are “from” or “starts at” prices.
- A price is not a product comparison. Plans differ in what the receptionist does with a call: some take a message, some book into a calendar, some transfer.
- Not a full market. It covers vendors that publish a price on a page we could read on the day.

AI receptionist prices, answered from the data
How much does an AI receptionist cost per month?
On the plans vendors publish, from $24.95 a month (Upfirst Starter, 30 calls a month) to $1,500 or more a month (Dialzara Done for You!). Across 12 AI receptionist products the median entry price is $49 a month, by our arithmetic on each product's lowest paid plan. Prices were read on each vendor's own page on 10 November 2026.
What do AI receptionists charge when you go over the plan?
Plans billed by the minute publish overage of $0.20 to $0.48 a minute. Plans billed by the call publish $0.45 to $3.00 a call. 5 products in the tracker (Rosie, Allo, Sameday, Slang AI, Abby Connect) publish no overage rate in dollars, so a busy month there means a plan change or a quote.
Is an AI receptionist cheaper than a live answering service?
On the published plans in this tracker, usually by a wide margin. Entry plans at the 4 staffed services in the tracker run from $99 to $300 a month, against a median of $49 for AI products.

What does it cost to build an AI receptionist on a voice platform?

How was the AI receptionist price tracker made?
On 10 November 2026 we opened each vendor's own pricing page and recorded every published plan: its price, billing unit, what is included, the overage rate and the page address. That gave 78 plans from 20 vendors. Vendors with no published price are listed and left out. No third-party price lists were used. The data is free under CC BY 4.0.
