If you run a trade or a small firm in Aylesbury, the question isn't whether an AI receptionist works — it's what it costs against the alternative. Here are the actual numbers, with nothing hidden behind a quote form.
| Plan | Price | Basis | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Missed-call pack | £149 | one-off, no subscription | The entry point: stop losing calls, no monthly commitment. |
| Starter retainer | £49 | per month | Ongoing cover for a sole trader or a small firm. |
| Standard retainer | £99 | per month | Full reception cover; no setup charge on retainer plans. |
| Lead classifier build | £497 | one-off build | For qualifying and routing enquiries rather than just answering. |
| Call agent build | £697 | one-off build | The fuller build when the phone is the front door of the business. |
There is no setup charge on retainer plans, and there is a 30-day guarantee on the retainer. Nothing above requires a sales call to find out.
Aylesbury is a market town, and most of the businesses that lose calls here are one or two people working alone. The phone rings while you're up a ladder, under a sink, or driving between the villages around town — and by the time you call back, they've rung someone else.
The usual answer is a part-time receptionist. The problem is that a part-time wage buys you a person who isn't there at 6pm, isn't there on Saturday, and can only take one call at a time — which is exactly when the emergency jobs come in.
A part-time receptionist covers part of a week, one call at a time, at a wage that has to be paid whether the phone rings or not. A retainer at £49–£99 per month covers every hour of every day and answers simultaneous calls. In Aylesbury, where employment costs are what they are, that gap is the whole argument.
What it does not do: it will not chase a debt, negotiate a price, or handle a complaint that needs judgement. Those still come to you — and if a job needs a human, it says so rather than pretending.
If you simply want to stop missing calls, take the £149 one-off and see the difference before committing monthly. If the phone is genuinely the front door of your business, the retainer is the honest choice — and if the real problem is sorting good enquiries from time-wasters rather than answering them, the £497 lead classifier build is what you actually need.
Plans start at £49 per month for a starter retainer and £99 per month for the standard retainer. There is no setup charge on retainer plans, and there is a 30-day guarantee.
Yes — the missed-call pack is £149 as a one-off, with no ongoing subscription.
A lead classifier build is £497, with the call agent build at £697. Those are project fees for businesses that want a fuller setup rather than a retainer.
No. The agent works on your existing number, so nothing changes for your customers and there is no new app for you to learn.
