The Real Cost

Save thousands compared to a traditional agency.

Traditional agencies charge $6,000–$10,000/month plus per-meeting fees — and still deliver reps who are rude and off-script.

  • $6,000–$10,000+/month
  • $200–$600 per meeting booked
  • Can be rude to your customers
  • Don't know your playbook

We know what you're thinking

Every question you have — before you ask it.

Real answers to the doubts that hold smart businesses back.

Trust & Security

Will my leads know they're talking to AI?
Answer: The AI introduces itself transparently and sounds natural. Most leads engage as if speaking with a knowledgeable rep.
Is my data and my customers' data secure?
Answer: All data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and we never share or sell it. Formal compliance certifications are on our roadmap.
What types of businesses does this work for?
Answer: Any service business with inbound leads — plumbing, HVAC, legal, real estate, agencies, and more.

Getting Started

How long does it take to get set up?
Answer: Most teams are live within a few business days after we train the AI on your playbook.
Can I customize what the AI says to my leads?
Answer: Yes — you control the script, tone, qualifying questions, and edge-case handling.

How It Works

What happens if the AI can't answer a question?
Answer: It hands off to a human rep, schedules a follow-up, or escalates per your configured rules.
How is this different from a traditional answering service?
Answer: It actually qualifies leads, books meetings, and follows your sales playbook — not just message-taking.
Does the AI place phone calls to leads?
Answer: Not today — speed-to-lead currently engages leads over text and email only. We're holding off on voice until we can deliver a customer experience that matches a great human rep, and we'll add it as soon as we can.

Compatibility & Flexibility

What if I want to cancel?
Answer: No contracts. Cancel anytime — 30-day money-back guarantee on your first month.
Do I still need my closing sales reps?
Answer: Yes. The AI handles speed-to-lead and qualification; your reps focus on closing high-intent meetings.

Still not sure? Good — skeptics make the best customers.

Illustration of a speed-to-lead research model. On the left, a buyer submits an online contact form labeled “New inbound lead.” A timer starts at 0:00 and moves through 1 minute, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, and 1 hour. Above the timeline are five labeled research inputs: HBR/MIT Lead Response Management Study, Velocify Sales Optimization Study, Drift Lead Response Survey, InsideSales/XANT Lead Response Report, and Workato B2B Lead Response Study. Each study points toward a shared conclusion on the right: “Response speed deserves operational attention because contact, qualification, and conversion odds fall sharply after the first few minutes.”
