We don't publish a one-size-fits-all price because we don't sell one. Every business gets a fixed monthly quote after a free audit of its actual calls — most setups land far below the cost of a single part-time hire.
From the low hundreds per month
For single-location businesses that want every call answered, every message captured, and simple bookings handled — without hiring anyone.
Typically mid hundreds per month
For businesses where the phone drives revenue: integrations, bilingual coverage, lead qualification, and clean handoffs to your team.
Scoped per project after your audit
For multi-location operations and complex call flows — legal intake, medical scheduling, multiple departments, custom reporting.
| Item | AI receptionist (UBOTIKA) | Human receptionist | Answering service |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical monthly cost | Fixed monthly price — typically a fraction of one part-time hire | $3,000–$4,500 fully loaded (wages, taxes, benefits) | Per-minute or per-call billing, often $1–$2/min — climbs with volume |
| Hours covered | 24/7/365, holidays included, at the same flat price | One shift, minus breaks, sick days, and vacation | 24/7 possible, but after-hours is often a paid add-on |
| Answer speed | First ring, every time | Fast at the desk; rolls to voicemail when busy or away | Queues and hold time during busy stretches |
| Simultaneous calls | Unlimited — ten at once handled like one | One at a time | Limited by staffing; overflow callers wait |
| Books appointments | Yes — checks availability, books, and confirms on the same call | Yes | Usually no — takes a message you still have to return |
| CRM and calendar updates | Automatic notes and bookings on every call | Manual, when there’s time | Rare — typically an emailed message |
| Bilingual English/Spanish | Built into the call flow | Only if you hire bilingual staff for every shift | Premium add-on, subject to operator availability |
| Best suited for | The routine majority: answering, qualifying, booking | Complex, emotional, high-touch conversations | Basic message-taking and overflow |
Because the honest price depends on your call volume, integrations, languages, and hours — and a generic number would be wrong for most businesses. Instead, we audit your calls for free and quote one fixed monthly price for your exact setup. You know the full cost before you commit, and it doesn’t fluctuate with a busy month.
Most single-location setups start in the low hundreds per month. Add CRM integrations, bilingual coverage, lead qualification, and custom workflows, and you’re typically in the mid hundreds. Multi-location and complex intake projects are scoped individually. For comparison, a human receptionist runs $3,000–$4,500 a month fully loaded.
Flat. Per-minute billing punishes you for the thing you actually want — more calls answered. Your UBOTIKA price is a fixed monthly number, so a marketing push or a busy season doesn’t blow up your bill.
Your quote spells out everything before you sign: the monthly price and any one-time setup work, in one document. No per-minute meters, no overage tiers, no surprise line items on the second invoice.
You don’t have to guess — that’s what the audit is for. We look at your call volume, where calls slip through, what tools you use, and whether you need bilingual or after-hours coverage, then recommend the smallest setup that solves the problem. If an AI receptionist doesn’t make financial sense for your business, we’ll tell you that too.
