Do prices go up after the first month?

The price changes exactly once: from $97 in your first month to the standard $297/month flat. That's the entire AI receptionist price increase — a single, published step you'd already know about before you sign up. After that, the rate is flat, with no per-minute tiers creeping up as your call volume grows.

The details

The $97 first month is a discounted prove-it period, not a teaser rate. The difference between this and the classic "intro price" trick is that the second price is stated up front, in writing, everywhere the offer appears: $297/month flat, unlimited calls, no contract.

What "flat" means in practice:

Could the standard rate change for new customers someday? Any company can revisit pricing. But with no contract, you're never locked in at a rate you didn't agree to — if a price ever stopped making sense for your shop, you cancel and you're done. There's nothing to unwind.

What this means for your shop

Budgeting is the point. Per-minute answering services punish you for your own growth — more marketing, more calls, bigger invoice. A flat rate means the answering cost of your busiest month is already known. When you run your numbers on ad spend, LSA, and close rates, "answering every call" stays a fixed $297 line instead of a variable that spikes right when business is good.
