You’ll always know what you are paying for. Base monthly fee, and any overage. That’s it.

No Hidden Fees

You won’t find any surprises on your bill from Smith.ai. We like to keep things simple for you.

Pricing Per Call — Instead of Per Minute

Pricing per minute results in hurried calls, expensive bills, and unpredictable costs. Nope. Not with us.

There is no setup fee, or setup fee called something else to hide it from you. Joining is easy and fast.

No Cancellation Fees

Month-by-month contracts mean you can cancel at any time — without any penalty or cancellation fee.
