Minutes = calls × average call length. Different callers = calls minus the estimated repeat calls. Use your phone log to replace these assumptions. Only count calls you would send to the service.
Costs exclude taxes, carrier fees, optional tools and human escalation. Calendar integration, staff permissions and your contract may require a different plan. Unknown overage prices remain open.
Choosing for your business
The Frontdesk profile covers My AI Front Desk, including its broader front-office bundle. Rosie is evaluated as a phone receptionist with distinct message and booking tiers.
Evaluate My AI Front Desk when you also need the bundled chat, SMS, CRM and automation scope. Evaluate Rosie when the buying decision is primarily answering and scheduling calls. Account for shared credits when the other channels are active.
The broader front-office tools solve work you would otherwise buy or maintain separately.

Change calls, duration, repeat callers and task in the live calculator
If you already have a CRM, web chat and automation tools, check whether you would actually use or replace those parts of Frontdesk. If the existing tools remain, a larger bundle can add complexity without reducing other spend. Rosie can be evaluated against a narrower phone-handling need.
The recorded Frontdesk allowance combines voice minutes and a shared credit pool, with block top-ups. Credits used by other channels can change the voice subtotal. The table therefore shows the calculator range rather than inventing a precise single bill for an unknown channel mix.
A booking link, a generated lead and an event created directly in the calendar are separate outcomes. Rosie distinguishes link sending from direct calendar booking by tier. Frontdesk account permissions and exact calendar actions need to be established for your purchased bundle.
Decide whether customer records should live in the bundled CRM or the one your team already uses. Test duplicate prevention and the follow-up destination. A receptionist that captures an accurate message can still create extra work if information lands in an unmonitored workspace.
Send a phone call and a related web inquiry, then inspect records, notifications and credit usage. For Rosie, compare the same call outcome rather than assuming the whole software bundle must be reproduced. This keeps the decision tied to work your business actually needs.
Yes. This comparison uses the Frontdesk catalogue profile at myaifrontdesk.com, not an unrelated similarly named service.
Shared credit availability and block top-ups can change the voice-only subtotal. The model preserves that uncertainty.
Compare the tools and actions you will actually use, required integrations and channel consumption. A broader bundle and a phone-only workflow need different budgets.
