My AI Front Desk vs Rosie
My AI Front Desk sells a whole front office in one plan. Rosie sells a phone receptionist by the minute. My AI Front Desk's Business-in-a-Box is $99 a month, or $79 billed annually, with 200 voice minutes plus web chat, texting and a built-in CRM. Rosie's Professional is $49 a month for 250 minutes of answering.
Past the plan, the two differ again. My AI Front Desk prints its overage: each extra voice minute uses 25 credits, at $0.01 a credit. Rosie doesn't print a rate, and it puts booking and live transfer on its $149 Scale plan.
My AI Front Desk fits a business that wants chat, SMS and a CRM on the same bill as its phone line. Rosie fits a business that only needs the phone answered and wants the lowest entry price. Both pricing pages were read in September 2026.

A bundle against a phone line
Start by listing what you already pay for. Say you have no website chat, texting tool or CRM. My AI Front Desk puts all three beside your phone answering on one $99 plan. If you already run those, you'd be paying for a second copy.
Rosie keeps to the phone. It trains itself from your website and your Google Business Profile, then answers calls. Its three plans are Professional at $49 for 250 minutes, Scale at $149 for 1,000 and Growth at $299 for 2,000.
What each one charges past the plan
My AI Front Desk runs overage on credits. Each voice minute past your 200 uses 25 credits, and a credit is $0.01. The plan comes with 1,000 overage credits a month, and auto-reload adds another 1,000 for $10 when you run low.
Rosie's pricing page doesn't print a rate for a minute past your bundle. A growing business moves up a plan instead, and Rosie's steps are large: 250 minutes, then 1,000, then 2,000. Ask Rosie for the overage rate in writing if you expect to sit between tiers.
A 300-minute month, counted both ways
Picture a pet-grooming salon with 100 calls a month at three minutes each. That's 300 minutes of talk time.
On My AI Front Desk, 200 of those minutes are in the plan. The other 100 use 2,500 credits. The 1,000 monthly credits cover the first 40 minutes, and auto-reload tops up the rest $10 at a time.
On Rosie, 300 minutes is past Professional's 250. Scale covers 1,000 minutes for $149, and it's also the plan where booking and live transfer start. A salon that books grooming slots by phone would likely start there anyway.
Trying each one first
My AI Front Desk offers a seven-day free trial with no credit card. That's enough to forward your line for a week and read what it did with real callers.
Rosie gives two months free when you pay annually. Before you commit to a year, check which plan you'll actually need, since booking starts on Scale.
Where GreetKeeper sits between them
Disclosure: GreetKeeper is our product, and this is the only place on the page it appears. It's a phone receptionist billed per answered call, not per minute. Starter is $49 a month for 200 answered calls, then $0.45 a call. Professional is $149 for 750 at $0.35, and Scale is $349 for 2,000 at $0.25.
The 100-call grooming salon fits Starter at any call length, with booking on the plan. GreetKeeper reads the name, number and time back, then books into Google Calendar or Outlook. After the call, the caller gets one text with the booking confirmation, and a reply with the opt-out word stops further texts.
A signed webhook sends each call's details and summary to the CRM you already use. Robocalls are screened out before the greeting and don't count toward the plan. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, every feature on and no card.
| Plan | Monthly | Calls included | After that |
|---|---|---|---|
| StarterFor a single location taking calls one line at a time. | $49 | 200 | $0.45 per call |
| ProfessionalBooking, routing and transfers included, not an add-on. | $149 | 750 | $0.35 per call |
| ScaleFor busy phones and longer opening hours. | $349 | 2,000 | $0.25 per call |
