What else you could do instead

Three comparisons against the things people actually buy instead of us. Every competitor figure is taken from that company’s own published page and carries the date we checked it, and every page names the buyer who should go and buy the other thing.

MannVenture vs Durable

Durable's Launch plan is $22 USD/mo billed yearly and it publishes a site in about thirty seconds. Our AI Website is $97 CAD a month plus a one-time $497, and its AI answers, quotes and books.

Where they beat us

Durable is cheaper, faster to launch, and has a free tier. We have none of those things.

An AI receptionist against an answering service

A human answering service starts at $300 USD/mo for 30 calls, then $11.50 a call. Ours is $97 CAD a month for 75 calls, then $0.75 CAD per call, and it books the job rather than taking a message.

Where they beat us

A person handles the call that goes sideways. Ours is very good at the first ninety seconds and hands anything unusual to you.

An AI receptionist against hiring someone

WorkBC puts a BC receptionist's annual earnings at $37,670 CAD a year, with hours generally Monday to Friday. Ours is $97 CAD a month and it answers at seven on a Saturday.

Where they beat us

A person greets whoever walks in and does the other ninety per cent of a front-desk job. Ours does neither.
