# GreetKeeper

> GreetKeeper is an AI receptionist that answers every inbound call, books the appointment in your calendar, and leaves you the transcript. GreetKeeper is priced per answered call with the overage rate published, from $49 a month for 200 calls, and booking is included on every plan. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with every feature on and no card needed, and there is no setup fee. Every plan includes a dedicated local number, area code chosen at signup, one per location; you forward your existing number to it. GreetKeeper answers calls forwarded in all four carrier modes (all calls, busy, no answer, unreachable): the ring count is set where the forwarding is set, and GreetKeeper answers the moment the call arrives. Robocalls and spam calls are screened out before the greeting and do not count toward the plan. After a call, the caller receives one SMS with the booking link or the booking confirmation. The Multi-location plan runs one number per location from $299 a location. GreetKeeper serves US businesses with US numbers.
