Weave alternatives
A search for a Weave alternative usually means one of two things. You want the whole phone and texting platform for less, or you want your missed calls answered by an AI receptionist. This page covers the second, where prices are printed and GreetKeeper starts at $49 for 200 answered calls.

What GreetKeeper does differently from Weave
Every line below is on our pricing page or in the product today.
Why teams switch to GreetKeeper
- GreetKeeper's plans are printed: $49 for 200 answered calls, $149 for 750 and $349 for 2,000, with the overage rate beside each.
- GreetKeeper answers the calls your front desk can't get to, forwarded from the phone system you already run.
- Booking lands in Google Calendar or Outlook during the call, on every plan.
- After the call, the patient gets one text with the booking link or the confirmation, and a reply with the opt-out word stops further texts.
- Calls that arrive together are answered at the same time, so nobody sits in a queue at 8am.
- Every call arrives as a transcript and a short summary your team can read in a minute.
Why people leave Weave
Not a general complaint about the category. The specific wall this vendor puts in front of you.
Weave sells a big bundle. Its pricing page lists VoIP desk phones, two-way texting, reminders, digital forms, payments, reviews and email marketing, and every plan card says Get Pricing. If what you mostly need is someone answering during lunch and after hours, you're pricing a whole platform to get there. A quoted bundle also means a sales call before you can compare anything side by side.
What the bill does as you grow
The entry price is the cheapest month you will ever have. This is the shape of the rest.
Weave quotes each plan, so ask for the monthly fee per location, the phone count and any hardware terms in writing. GreetKeeper's scaling is printed. Past your allowance, each call costs $0.45, $0.35 or $0.25 by plan, and robocalls screened before the greeting never count. A group with several offices can take the Multi-location plan from $299 per location.
What moving off Weave actually involves
Forwarding takes five minutes. Here is the part that takes an afternoon.
You can keep Weave's phones and still add GreetKeeper. In your phone system's settings, forward the calls you want answered, such as no-answer or after-hours calls, to GreetKeeper's local number. The ring count is set where the forwarding is set, and GreetKeeper answers the moment the call arrives. Your reminders and texting stay where they are. Connect the booking calendar in Google Calendar or Outlook, and patient records stay in your practice management system.
Common questions
Which Weave alternatives print their prices?
GreetKeeper prints every plan: $49 for 200 answered calls, $149 for 750 and $349 for 2,000. Rosie, Goodcall, Smith.ai and Dialzara publish rates too. Arini, like Weave, sells through a sales conversation.
Do I need new desk phones to use GreetKeeper?
No. Your existing number forwards to GreetKeeper's dedicated local number, so the phones on your desk stay as they are. Patients keep dialing the number they already know.
What happens to calls that come in during a staff meeting?
GreetKeeper answers them, several at once if they arrive together, and books the patients who want a slot. Each call lands as a transcript and a summary. Nobody waits on hold for the meeting to end.
