On a call
What it can do while the caller is on the line.
Puts callers through
To the numbers you list, warm or cold. If nobody answers in about 30 seconds, it comes back to the caller.
About transfers →Texts the details
One text per call, with the booking or a link, once you switch texting on.
Answers several callers at once
No busy tone. Incoming calls aren't limited on any plan.
Works differently after hours
A rule on your number can hand evening calls to another agent, for example one that takes messages.
It knows which car is coming in
It asks for the make and model, and remembers the car for next time.

Every calling and booking feature, on every plan.
- Calls
- Incoming calls are never capped. Outgoing calls run at the pace shown on each plan: 1 at a time and 50 an hour on pay as you go.
- Included
- Answering calls, outbound campaigns, appointments, reminders, agents, voices, call recordings and transcripts, on every plan.
- Campaigns
- Outbound campaigns open up after your first top-up. Demo credits cover test calls to your own number.
- Minutes
- Deducted by actual call time, counted to the second. Run out and extra minutes bill at the pay-as-you-go rate, so calls never stop. No rollover.
- Billing
- No card on file, and no auto-charge unless you turn it on. Cancel anytime — your minutes stay usable until the period ends.
- API
- API keys, webhooks, listings and connected apps (ChatGPT, Claude) are available on Business and Scale.
- Switching
- Upgrades apply right away: you pay the prorated difference and get the same share of the extra minutes, with the full monthly allowance from your next renewal. Downgrades take effect at the end of your period — if you're above the smaller plan's locations or seats, remove what you no longer need first.
Questions
Before you start
- Can it give a quote?
- Only prices you've written into its notes. Otherwise it can offer a call back with a quote.
- What if the car isn't safe to drive?
- Write in its notes what it should say, for example not to drive the car in and to book the earliest slot, or to put the call through to the workshop.
- Can I keep my phone number?
- Yes, if it's with Telnyx, Twilio or another internet phone (SIP) provider. You connect it and it stays with that provider; nothing is moved. Otherwise we can give you a number, which needs a plan.
- Can I choose the voice?
- Yes. There's a choice of voices, and you can hear each one on a test call before your number goes live.
- Does it speak other languages?
- It can reply in the caller's language. Which languages it speaks depends on the voice you choose.
- Does it take voicemail?
- There's no voicemail box. It answers the call instead, and every call gets a transcript and a summary.
- Can it take payments?
- No. It only quotes prices you've written into its notes.
- How am I billed?
- A small platform fee per minute plus AI usage at cost, from a prepaid balance. New accounts get $5 of credit, and plans are optional.
