Smith.ai virtual receptionists are a true extension of your office: They answer calls with custom greetings, qualify and screen leads, follow custom directions, book appointments, take payments, make outgoing calls if you need, and more! Setmore Live Booking is a live answering service mostly for scheduling appointments on their platform. They don’t offer nearly the same depth of services as Smith.ai, which can book appointments on Setmore’s platform too (among many others).
Setmore Live Booking’s prices are also limited. After their $1 trial of 30 days, you have one monthly pricing plan option: $89 for 90 minutes. If you go over your quota, your price-per-minute hikes by 25%, but if you go below, you lose the rest of your minutes. Your business would need to have the exact same amount of call minutes every month for accurate cost estimates. Smith.ai’s prices are per-call, transparent, easily adjustable, and monthly costs are predictable. With us, you choose the plan that comes closest to your call quota, and if you go over, we charge the exact same amount per call.
Smith.ai’s receptionists are backed by our proprietary technology that provides your custom instructions immediately, full caller histories, zip code searches, conference calling, warm transfers, and logging call data and new leads in your CRM. Furthermore, our call tracking dashboard and Zapier integrations can help bring your business to modern-day levels of automation and analysis. Setmore has a dashboard for their appointment bookings, but no other integrations or tech solutions that enable Smith.ai receptionists.
For more qualified leads, predictable pricing, technology-backed receptionists, custom plans, CRM and intake integrations, and a call tracking dashboard, businesses prefer Smith.ai to Setmore Live Booking.

“I rely on Smith.ai to handle all of my firm's calls. Their intake process integrates with my practice management software, which saves me time. Plus, their professionalism means I pay a fraction of the cost of an in-house receptionist without sacrificing quality. I recommend Smith.ai to every attorney I see.”
“Having someone professionally answer our phones is essential to operating a business. We engaged with Smith about 3 months ago and have been extremely pleased with the service they are providing us. They are very flexible and their integration with technology has functionally made a huge difference for us. I receive a SMS message and an email within seconds of a call with all pertinent information regarding the call. They ensure critical calls make it through to me and sales calls are screened. This makes my day much more productive and we get a professional service answering the phones.”
"Smith.ai has been a major hack into improving my business flow. Playing phone tag with potential clients and constantly getting interrupted with sales calls was so tiresome. Smith.ai has completely alleviated this problem. They screen all calls that come into my main office number so only critical calls get through to me, and they schedule appointments with potential clients after having carefully screened them through my intake process. I now save so much time and only have quality appointments booked. Less stress, more appointments. It's a total win!"
“Having real, live people answering the phone has made a huge difference in the volume of my practice, and I'm all about Smith.ai's technology-driven approach. I can focus on my clients without interruptions from sales calls and spammers, yet I remain in the loop when I'm in court or a meeting thanks to their text summaries. I love that Smith.ai manages my web chats now, too! They're one of the key reasons I was able to grow from a solopreneur to an 8 person team!”
“Smith.ai has been integral to my business at CMIT Solutions of Morristown. Their service was extremely easy to set up and they have been extremely professional with their customer care. Having a live-answer service handle all my incoming calls gives my business a level of professionalism that it was missing and allows me to easily prioritize all of my call-backs. I highly recommend Smith.ai to any business looking for a live-answer service.”
"As small business owners, it is very important to have a professional image with a quick response to our phone calls. We are at ease knowing that our clients are being greeted with a professional, friendly and upbeat voice when they call our office. The message taking is very clear, concise and effective, and allows our contact with our clients to be frictionless, effective and progressive. The service quality and superior communication skills of the Smith.ai team makes them a true extension of our office."
