Pricing

Simple phone cover pricing

Short-term AI receptionist cover from £50 per day. Includes a temporary receptionist number, call summaries and guided setup.

Includes £10 call credit, typically enough for around 80 minutes of AI receptionist call time, depending on call length and network/provider charges. Fair usage applies. Very long calls, repeated test calls, or unusually high call volumes may use credit more quickly.
