AI Receptionist Cost: What You Pay Per Month (2026).

An AI receptionist costs from €25 per month with BeepSweep. There are no per-call charges: you pay a fixed monthly fee no matter how many people call. For that, the AI receptionist answers your calls itself whenever you cannot pick up.

Below is exactly what each plan costs and what you get for it.

How much does an AI receptionist cost per month?

With BeepSweep, an AI receptionist starts at €25 per month. The price depends on whether you work alone or share the phone with several people:

• Solo — €25 per month: for people who work on their own. BeepSweep picks up when you don’t, and asks who is calling, what it is about and when you can call back.
• Enterprise — €99 per month: your company’s front desk, with 200 calls a month. It answers questions from your own website, transfers warmly to the right colleague and puts appointments in the calendar. Every extra user costs €15 and brings 25 calls along.
• Custom — on request: for several locations, integrations with your own systems, or a setup of your own.

So you pay a fixed monthly fee. The AI receptionist itself is already available from €25 per month — you don’t need an expensive business plan for it.

Are there per-call charges?

No. BeepSweep charges no per-call fees on any plan. You pay a fixed monthly amount; every plan includes a generous allowance of calls, and after that you fall back to voicemail-to-text rather than watching the bill climb.

That’s an important difference from a traditional answering service, where a human is billed per call or per minute. So on a busy day with BeepSweep, you know your cost up front.

What those models mean for a company running an emergency line is worked through in the page for HVAC and plumbing companies. If price is your main filter, we ranked the cheapest options side by side.

What do you get for €25 per month?

For €25 per month, the AI receptionist answers your calls when you can’t pick up. It greets the caller, always says honestly that it’s an AI, asks for their name and reason for calling, and then sends you a briefing: who called, why, and how urgent it was.

Concretely, the Solo plan includes:

• Picking up when you don’t, on the number you already have.
• Asking the follow-up questions: who is calling, what about, and when you can call back.
• A briefing per call you read back in the app, with the recording alongside.
• Notifications via WhatsApp or email.
• One user, cancel monthly, no per-call charges.

You keep your own number; you set up call forwarding once.

What does the Enterprise plan cost?

Enterprise costs €99 per month and is meant for a company where several people answer the phone. It takes the company number and answers questions from your own website, so a caller gets an answer instead of a message. It includes 200 calls a month, plus opening hours and routing rules.

Every extra user costs €15 a month and brings 25 calls along. Everyone gets their own line and inbox, and BeepSweep transfers warmly to the colleague who handles it. Appointments go straight into the calendar.

Work on your own and Solo (€25) is enough. Enterprise is for people who share the same phone across several team members. Several locations, or integrations with your own systems? That is Custom.

There is no free plan and no trial period. You can hear it first, though: see below.

Is an AI receptionist cheaper than an answering service?

Usually yes, because you pay a fixed monthly fee instead of paying per call. An answering service staffed by real people typically charges per call or per minute, which adds up quickly when you get a lot of calls.

One honest trade-off: with an answering service the caller reaches a human, and with an AI receptionist they don’t. For some calls you’d rather they did. Not sure which fits you? In our honest comparison of missed-call solutions we lay out answering the phone yourself, voicemail-to-text, an answering service and an AI receptionist side by side.

Can you hear an AI receptionist first?

Yes. The homepage has a demo that calls you: you leave your number and BeepSweep rings within ten seconds, so you have the conversation yourself. That costs nothing and needs no account.

That way you hear how it sounds and what it asks before you commit to anything. There is no free plan and no trial: you pick a plan and cancel monthly if it does not suit you.
