Multi-location plan from $299 a location
Businesses with several sites get the Multi-location plan, from $299 per location a month. Each location has its own local number, hours and greeting, and the contract sets what's included and the overage rate.
A dental group with three offices or a plumbing firm covering two counties wants each phone answered in its own voice. On Multi-location, each site gets a dedicated local number with its own area code, plus its own opening hours and closure dates.
You agree the call allowance and the overage rate per location when you sign, so the bill is known before the first call. Talk to us with your location count and a rough monthly call volume for each site.
Your number, forwarded your way
Every plan includes a dedicated local number. You keep your existing business number and forward it to GreetKeeper, so customers dial the number they already know.
You choose the area code at signup, one number per location. Forward all your calls, or only the ones you miss: busy, no answer or unreachable. GreetKeeper answers a call forwarded in any of those four modes the same way.
The ring count is set where the forwarding is set, and GreetKeeper answers the moment the call arrives. On a mobile carrier that's a short code; on a VoIP phone system it's a setting in the dashboard. How it works walks through the setup.
Why per call, not per minute
Per-minute pricing charges you most for the conversations you most wanted to happen.
A caller who describes the problem properly, gives an address and books a slot might take four minutes. On a per-minute plan that call costs you several times what a wrong number costs. On GreetKeeper it's one call, whatever its length. Smith.ai also bills per call, and Goodcall bills per unique caller with minutes uncapped.

| How it's counted | Who prices this way | What it means for your bill |
|---|---|---|
| Per call answered | GreetKeeper, Smith.ai | A long booking call costs the same as a short one |
| Per unique caller | Goodcall | Repeat callers in a month cost nothing extra after the first |
| Per minute | Rosie, Dialzara, Ruby, Abby Connect, AnswerConnect | The longer the conversation, the higher the bill |
| Per location | Slang.ai, and GreetKeeper Multi-location | Each site is priced on its own |

What counts as a call
A call counts when the assistant has a real conversation with someone. Very short calls, robocalls and spam calls it screens out don't count toward your plan.
| Situation | Counted? |
|---|---|
| Someone has a conversation with the assistant | Yes |
| A very short call, such as a hang-up during the greeting | No |
| A robocall, or a silent or robotic caller dropped before the greeting | No |
| A call the assistant screens out under your rules | No |
| The assistant transfers to your mobile | Yes, once |
| The same customer calls twice in a day | Twice |
A transferred call counts once, even when it goes on to try your second fallback number. Transfers and routing are on every plan.
Screening happens before the greeting, so a silent line or a recorded sales pitch never reaches your allowance. What happens to spam calls explains the screening in more detail.

Start with your own calls
Your 14-day free trial has every feature on, from booking to transfers, and you don't need a card to start. There's no setup fee either: the monthly plan is the whole price.
Setup starts from your website. Point GreetKeeper at it for a first draft of your hours, services and FAQs, then correct anything it got wrong. Every call after that arrives as a transcript and a short summary, so by the end of the trial you know exactly which plan your call volume needs.
Pricing questions
How much does GreetKeeper cost per month?
$49 a month on Starter for 200 answered calls, $149 on Professional for 750, and $349 on Scale for 2,000. Booking, transfers and a dedicated local number are on all three. Businesses with several sites start from $299 per location on Multi-location.
What happens if I go over my included calls?
You keep answering. Starter bills $0.45 a call after 200, Professional $0.35 after 750, Scale $0.25 after 2,000. Nothing stops working mid-month.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial with every feature on, and no card is needed to start. When the trial ends you choose a paid plan, from $49 a month.
Do you charge a setup fee?
No. There's no setup fee on any plan, so the monthly price is the whole price.
Do robocalls and spam calls count toward my plan?
No. GreetKeeper drops silent and robotic callers before the greeting, and screened calls never count toward your allowance. Very short calls, like a hang-up during the greeting, don't count either.
Is a phone number included?
Yes. Every plan includes a dedicated local number, one per location, with the area code you choose at signup. You forward your existing business number to it, so customers keep dialing the number they know.
How is a business with several locations priced?
On the Multi-location plan, from $299 per location a month. Each location gets its own local number, hours and greeting. The call allowance and overage rate are set in your contract.
Which plan should a single-location business start on?
Starter covers 200 answered calls, which suits most single-phone shops. Going over 200 doesn't mean you should move up: at $0.45 a call, Starter stays cheaper until about 423 calls a month. Past that, Professional costs less.
Is appointment booking extra?
No. Booking is on every plan, including the $49 Starter plan. After the call the caller gets a text with the booking link or the booking confirmation, and a reply with the opt-out word stops further texts.
Is there a contract, and is annual billing cheaper?
Monthly plans run month to month, and you can cancel when you like. Annual billing gives you two months free: Starter is $490 a year, and the allowance stays the same every month.
