What you’re choosing between
We’re not the only way to handle inbound calls. Here’s how we stack up — cost first, so you can do the math before the features.
| UnitedAI | Voicemail | Missed-call text | Human receptionist | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | $149 | $0 — but every missed call is free revenue for your competitor | $25–$50 + SMS fees | $3,500–$5,000 (one person, one shift) |
| Answers every inbound call | Yes — first ring, every time | No — caller hangs up | Only by text — no voice | Only if not on another line |
| Qualifies leads before handoff | Yes — with your custom script | No — raw voicemail | No — just a name and number | When they remember to ask |
| Books into your calendar | Yes — checks live availability | No | Sends a link and hopes | Yes — but prone to human error |
| 24/7 coverage | Yes (Pro) — nights, weekends, holidays | Same dead-end recording | Silent after hours | Extra $5,000+/mo for night shift |
