Is an AI receptionist better than hiring a receptionist?

For most small trades businesses, yes. A human receptionist costs $3,000+/month, works business hours, and can only handle one call at a time. Frank works 24/7, answers every call at once, books jobs, follows up with leads, and collects reviews for $297/month — and there's a real human team behind it for anything that needs a person.

How much do you save with an AI receptionist vs a human?

A full-time receptionist runs $3,000–$4,500/month with wages, taxes and benefits. Frank is $297/month. That's over $30,000/year in savings — while covering nights, weekends and holidays a human never would.

What if I need a real human sometimes?

You still get one. Frank runs the front desk 24/7, but a real person sets him up, tunes him to your business, and is available whenever you'd rather talk to a human. You get AI coverage with human support behind it.

A receptionist costs $3,000 a month and goes home at 5.
Frank's $297 and never sleeps.

A human receptionist is $3,000+/month, works business hours, takes sick days, and still can't answer three lines at once during a rush. Frank answers every call 24/7, books the job, and follows up — for a fraction of the cost.

Here's the deal

Hiring is expensive and it caps out at 9-to-5. The calls that cost you the most come after hours and during storms — exactly when a human isn't at the desk. Frank fixes it.
