One flat rate. No surprise bills.
A one-time setup fee covers the full turnkey build — discovery, knowledge base, phone line, automations, testing, launch. Then one flat monthly rate with 500 call minutes included covers everything after; past the pool, minutes are $0.40CAD each, itemized. That's the whole price list.

Per-minute AI tools look cheaper. Run the math.
Metered AI voice tools advertise pennies per minute. The full bill reads differently:
- The meter runs from the very first minute: $0.29–0.39 USD (≈ $0.40–0.53 CAD) — plus the phone-system subscription those tools require
- One busy month of 800–1,200 minutes is $230–470 USD on the meter alone, and the number moves every month
- Plus your own hours: you build the knowledge base, scripts and integrations yourself
- Ours: $500 CAD flat with 500 minutes included — built for you in 48 hours, guaranteed in writing
- Even our overage ($0.40 CAD/min) sits at the bottom of that range — and it only starts after your included 500 minutes
Straight answers on billing.
How do I pay?+–
Card (Visa/Mastercard/Amex) through our secure Stripe checkout, or Interac e-Transfer — half the setup when you sign up, half when your assistant goes live.
Is there a contract?+–
No. Month-to-month, no commitment. The setup fee is one-time. Cancel with an email, effective at the end of the billing month.
What if it doesn't fit my business?+–
Cancel before go-live and the second setup payment is never charged. The full policy is on the refunds page — in plain language.
What about call minutes?+–
500 minutes of AI call time are included every month — that's roughly 150–250 calls, more than a typical shop's volume. Past the pool, minutes are $0.40 CAD each, itemized on your invoice. You'll see usage coming — no surprise bills.
What does setup actually include?+–
A working assistant on your number in about 48 hours: discovery call, knowledge base built from your services and prices, booking rules configured, automations wired, test calls together, then go-live.
