AI Voice Agent & Chatbot for Your Business: $99/Month Introductory Pricing Explained
AI Voice & Chat Agent for Local Business
Quick Answer
For $99/month during your first 3 months, you get a customized AI voice agent trained on your business that catches every incoming call, plus a website chat agent that captures leads around the clock - after the intro period, pricing reverts to standard rates plus a $50/month AI subscription (which covers most small businesses' usage) and any overage, under a 12-month contract.
Most missed calls to a small business never call back - they call the next business on the list. This offer puts a customized, trained AI voice agent on your phone line and a matching chat agent on your website for $99/month during your first 3 months, so fewer of those calls (and website visitors) get lost in the first place. See current pricing and book a call to get started.
What You Actually Get for $99/Month
The $99/month introductory offer includes two connected pieces working together: a customized AI voice agent trained specifically on your business - your services, hours, pricing questions, and common customer questions - that answers every incoming call your team can’t get to, and a website chat agent trained on the same information that engages visitors the moment they land on your site instead of losing them to a bounce. Both pieces are set up and trained on your actual business before going live, not a generic script pulled off a shelf.
Why “Catch Every Call” Matters More Than It Sounds
A missed call from a prospective customer rarely means they’ll try again later - in most cases, they simply call the next business in their search results instead. One widely cited industry estimate puts the share of small business calls that go unanswered at well over half, though the exact figure varies by source and industry. Whatever the precise number for your specific business, the pattern is consistent: an unanswered call is disproportionately likely to become a lost customer rather than a callback. An AI voice agent removes that single point of failure by making sure every call gets answered, every time, regardless of whether your team is on another line, after hours, or slammed during a busy stretch. The chat agent extends that same coverage to your website, where a visitor who doesn’t get an immediate response often leaves without ever reaching out again.
How Setup Actually Works
Getting started doesn’t require any technical work on your end. The process begins with gathering information about your business - the services you offer, your pricing structure or how you typically quote jobs, your hours and coverage area, and the specific questions your customers ask most often. That information becomes the foundation both agents are trained on, so the voice agent that answers your phone and the chat agent on your website both sound like they actually understand your business, not a generic assistant reading from a script. Once trained, both agents go live on your existing phone number and website - no new number to advertise, no separate chat platform for customers to figure out.
What Makes This Different From a Generic Chatbot or Auto-Attendant
A standard phone tree (“press 1 for sales, press 2 for support”) or a generic website chat widget with canned responses solves a much narrower problem than what’s included here. Those tools route calls or answer a handful of pre-written questions; they don’t actually hold a conversation, ask follow-up questions, or capture the specific details of what a caller or visitor needs. A trained AI voice and chat agent is built to have an actual back-and-forth - understanding a caller’s question, asking clarifying questions the way a real front-desk person would, and capturing enough detail that a follow-up call from you or your team can pick up right where the conversation left off, instead of starting from scratch.
Understanding the Full Cost Structure
Being direct about pricing matters more than a flashy number, so here’s the complete picture: $99/month covers your first 3 months. After that, pricing reverts to the standard monthly rate for the voice and chat agents. Separately, there’s a $50/month AI subscription that covers the underlying AI usage - the basic tier is built to cover what a typical small business actually uses in a month, with any usage beyond that billed as overage. This offer requires a 12-month agreement, reflecting the real setup and training work that goes into customizing both agents to your specific business before they ever answer a call. See exact current pricing and terms before signing up.
Thinking Through the Math
A single missed call that would have become a customer is often worth far more than a month of this service - the exact number depends heavily on your average job or sale value, but for most local service businesses, one converted lead covers the introductory monthly cost several times over. The practical question isn’t whether this service is “worth it” in the abstract; it’s how many calls and website visitors your business is currently losing to no answer at all, and what even a modest reduction in that number is worth over a full year, not just the introductory 3 months.
A Note on Consistency
One underappreciated benefit worth naming directly: a trained AI agent answers every call and every chat the same way, every time, regardless of how busy the day has been, whether it’s the agent’s first call of the morning or its hundredth, or whether it’s a Tuesday afternoon or a Sunday night. Human staff naturally vary in energy, tone, and thoroughness across a long shift or a chaotic day - understandably so - while a trained agent’s consistency means the caller reaching out at 11pm on a Friday gets the same quality of interaction as the one calling at 10am on a Tuesday.
Who This Is Built For
This is built for local businesses that get inbound calls and website traffic they can’t fully staff around the clock - contractors fielding calls while on a job site, service businesses getting after-hours inquiries, medical and dental offices juggling patients and phones simultaneously, and any small business where a missed call is a missed sale. If your business currently has no system catching calls or chats outside business hours - nights, weekends, lunch breaks, or simply whenever your team is already on another call - this closes that specific gap without hiring additional staff or asking your existing team to do more with the same hours in a day.
Addressing the Common Concerns
Two questions come up most often before a business owner tries this. The first is whether an AI agent sounds obviously robotic to callers - a well-trained agent, built around your actual business information and natural conversational patterns, is a meaningfully different experience than a rigid phone tree, and most callers care far more about getting a real, useful answer than about who or what is on the other end. The second is whether this replaces staff entirely - for most businesses it doesn’t, and isn’t meant to. It’s built to catch what would otherwise go to voicemail or an empty inbox, working alongside your team rather than replacing the calls and conversations that genuinely benefit from a person’s direct involvement.
A Day in the Life With Both Agents Active
The clearest way to understand the value here is to walk through an ordinary day. Early morning, before your team arrives, a homeowner with an urgent issue calls - the voice agent answers, gathers the details, and logs it as a priority lead instead of it sitting in voicemail until you open. Mid-morning, while your team is on a job site with no signal to answer the office line, a routine pricing question comes in - handled the same way, logged and waiting when someone’s available. Over lunch, a website visitor researching options across a few competitors’ sites lands on yours, has a specific question about whether you service their area, and gets a real answer from the chat agent instead of leaving to check the next result. Friday evening after close, a weekend emergency call comes in - caught, logged, ready for your team Monday morning instead of having gone completely unanswered over the weekend. None of these moments individually feels dramatic, but stacked across a month, they represent the calls and visitors most businesses simply never see, because there was never a record they happened at all.
How This Compares to the Alternatives
Businesses trying to solve the missed-call problem generally land on one of a few options, each with real tradeoffs. Voicemail costs nothing extra but converts poorly - most callers hang up rather than leave a message, and even when they do, a callback hours later has a much lower chance of reaching someone still interested. A live answering service solves the “someone always answers” problem but at a meaningfully higher recurring cost than this offer, and the person answering typically isn’t trained on your specific business the way an AI agent built around your actual information is. Hiring additional front-desk staff solves coverage during business hours but does nothing for nights, weekends, or the moments your existing staff is already stretched thin - and comes with a far higher fully-loaded cost than $99/month plus the AI subscription. This offer sits in a specific gap: meaningfully more capable than voicemail, more affordable than live staffing, and available around the clock rather than only during business hours.
Industries That See the Fastest Return
While this works for any business fielding calls and website inquiries, a few types of businesses tend to see the clearest, fastest value. Home service contractors - HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing - routinely miss calls while physically on a job site, exactly the scenario an AI voice agent is built to catch. Medical, dental, and other appointment-based practices juggle in-office patients and incoming calls simultaneously, and an agent that can handle basic scheduling questions and information requests frees staff to focus on the patient actually in front of them. Restaurants and service businesses fielding a high volume of routine questions - hours, reservations, whether a specific service is offered - benefit from taking that repetitive load off staff entirely. And any business that markets itself online, driving traffic to a website, benefits from the chat agent specifically, since online traffic arrives at all hours regardless of when staff happens to be available to respond.
What Happens in Your First 30 Days
The onboarding process is front-loaded, so the ongoing experience stays simple. In the first week, we gather the specifics of your business - services, pricing approach, hours, service area, and the most common questions your team already fields - and use that to train both agents. In the second week, both agents go live, typically starting with a review period where early calls and chats are checked closely to confirm the agent’s answers match how you’d actually want a real conversation to go, with adjustments made based on what comes up. By the third and fourth week, the agents are running on their own, handling the calls and chats they’re trained for while flagging anything genuinely outside their scope, and you’re seeing a real pattern of what kinds of leads were previously going uncaptured.
A Worked Example of the Math
The exercise below is meant as a starting framework you can adjust with your own real numbers, not a guaranteed outcome - actual results depend on your specific business, call volume, and close rate.
Consider a business with an average job or sale value of $400 that’s currently missing an estimated 10 calls a month outright - not calls that get a callback later, but calls that simply go unanswered and disappear. If even 2 of those 10 calls a month convert into paying customers once caught and logged by the voice agent, that’s $800 in recovered revenue against a $99 introductory monthly cost, or against the standard rate plus the $50 AI subscription once the intro period ends. The specific numbers will vary by business - average job size, close rate, and how many calls are genuinely being missed today all matter - but the underlying math holds for most local businesses: recovering even a small fraction of currently-lost calls tends to more than cover the cost of catching them.
How Your Business Information Is Handled
Because both agents are trained on real details about your business - pricing, services, scheduling, and the specifics of how you operate - it’s reasonable to want clarity on how that information is used. The training data exists specifically to make the agents accurate and useful for your callers and website visitors; it isn’t shared with or used to train systems for other businesses, and captured lead information (names, contact details, what a caller or visitor needed) is routed to you the same way a human-answered call or chat would be, so you retain full ownership of your own customer information and conversations.
What Changes for Your Team Day-to-Day
The most immediate change most business owners notice isn’t in how calls are answered - it’s in what shows up afterward. Instead of a voicemail inbox nobody has time to check consistently, or a website contact form quietly collecting unread submissions, your team starts each day with a clear, organized list of who called or messaged, what they needed, and their contact information ready for follow-up. For many small businesses, that shift alone - from “we hope we didn’t miss anything important” to “here’s exactly what came in overnight” - changes how confidently a team can step away from the phone, whether that’s for a job site, a lunch break, or simply the end of the business day.
Reliability and What Happens When the Agent Can’t Help
No system handles every possible call or question perfectly, and a trained AI agent is built with that reality in mind rather than pretending otherwise. When a caller’s question or a website visitor’s need falls outside what the agent is trained to handle, it’s built to recognize that and capture the relevant details for a human follow-up rather than guessing or giving an unhelpful answer. This matters most for genuinely complex or unusual situations - the agent handles the common, repeatable questions and call types extremely well, and flags the exceptions clearly instead of trying to force every conversation through the same script.
Why the Introductory Period Is Structured This Way
The first 3 months at $99/month exist to let you evaluate real results - actual calls caught, actual leads captured - against a low upfront cost, before the price reflects the full ongoing value of having both agents live and trained on your business. The 12-month agreement that comes with this introductory rate is standard for a service built around real customization rather than a generic tool switched on for a flat monthly fee: genuinely training an agent on your specific pricing, services, and common questions is real work, done once at the start and then maintained as your business changes.
Getting Started
Setup starts with training both agents on your actual business - services offered, pricing structure, hours, and the questions your customers ask most - so what goes live sounds like your business, not a generic script, and not something borrowed from an unrelated industry’s template.
