Pricing
Three plans. Every plan gets everything.
Plans differ by minutes, texts, and locations — never by what your assistant can do. Priced by the minute, spam never counted, no overages ever, and a 30-day money-back guarantee on your first payment.
Creating your account and building your assistant is free — no card. You pick a plan and pay only when you take it live. If Conduit isn't right for you, cancel within 30 days of going live and your first payment is refunded in full. The guarantee covers your first subscription payment; minute and text packs aren't refundable.

How the counting works
The fine print, out loud.
No overages. Ever.
At your cap the assistant switches to taking messages. Nothing bills. You decide whether to add a pack.
Spam is free.
Robocalls, solicitors, hang-ups under ten seconds, and message-only calls are refunded to your pool at the end of the call.
You set the longest call.
3 to 10 minutes, default 5. Thirty seconds before the limit the assistant tells the caller and wraps up.
Calls live today. Texting after registration.
Calls work the day your assistant goes live. Texting takes longer, and we'd rather you know that before you pay than after: US mobile carriers require every business that sends business texts to be registered once, under its own legal name, before a single message can go out. We prepare and submit that registration for you and chase it until it clears — but the carriers run the review, so we can't approve it, expedite it, or promise a date. It typically takes 1–3 weeks from signup and can occasionally run longer. Until it clears, your assistant still answers every call, books jobs, and sends confirmations and reminders by email; the moment it clears, texting turns on by itself and we'll tell you. The registration is included in your plan — no separate setup fee.
One assistant, one name, one disclosure.
Every call opens with the AI-and-recording sentence. It is the same on all 20 voices and every personality, and it can't be removed.
Cancel from Billing.
Service runs to the end of the period you paid for. No retention calls.
What your minutes buy
Your assistant answers in your name, books or reschedules the visit against your Google Calendar, texts a confirmation and reminders, texts links mid-call, recognizes returning callers by number, escalates emergencies to a human, and writes it all down for your morning briefing — every call, on every plan. Only connected talk time with a real person counts; the per-call cap you set (3–10 minutes) keeps one call from eating your month.
What a text is
One 160-character segment your assistant sends or receives for you — confirmations, reminders, text-backs, mid-call links. Texts have their own allowance and their own pack.

At 150 minutes a month, the $29 minute-metered plans work out to about $63 (Reception AI) and $72 (Dialzara) before texting. At 60 minutes or fewer, they're cheaper than Solo, and we'd rather you know.
Ruby's 200-minute plan is $720 a month. A human handles a strange call better than any assistant; most calls to a service business aren't strange.

Questions
Pricing questions
Why $79 and not $29?
Because of what's inside the number. The $29 plans we verified on 2026-10-11 include 60 minutes (Dialzara, $0.48 a minute after) or 75 minutes (Reception AI, $0.45 after). Solo includes 150 minutes and 300 texts, books into your Google Calendar two ways, texts missed callers back, escalates emergencies to a human, and never bills an overage. Used to 150 minutes, those $29 plans cost about $72 and $63 — before texting, which one of them sells as a $19-a-month add-on plus per-message fees. Our minutes also only count when a real person is talking to your assistant. If you expect well under 60 minutes a month and don't need texting, a $29 plan is the cheaper choice.
What counts as a minute?
Connected talk time between a real person and your assistant, measured to the second. Robocalls, spam, hang-ups under ten seconds, and calls your assistant takes in message-only mode are refunded to your pool when the call settles. Your own test calls count like any other call.
What happens when I use all my minutes?
Nothing bills. Your assistant switches to taking messages — every caller still leaves a complete message that lands in your inbox and your morning briefing — and you choose whether to add a one-time pack or wait for the month to reset. There is no overage billing of any kind, ever.
How does the 30-day guarantee work?
If Conduit isn't right for you, cancel within 30 days of going live and your first payment is refunded in full. The guarantee covers your first subscription payment; minute and text packs aren't refundable. Ask from Billing or by email at support@conduitapp.ai; the refund is issued within five business days.
Is there a free trial?
No. Setup is free — build the whole assistant, hear every voice, see the dashboard, no card — and the demo call is public. Live calls cost real money, so every live account is paid. The guarantee is how we take the risk out of that: if the first 30 days don't convince you, the first payment comes back.
When does texting start working?
Calls work the day your assistant goes live. Texting takes longer, and we'd rather you know that before you pay than after: US mobile carriers require every business that sends business texts to be registered once, under its own legal name, before a single message can go out. We prepare and submit that registration for you and chase it until it clears — but the carriers run the review, so we can't approve it, expedite it, or promise a date. It typically takes 1–3 weeks from signup and can occasionally run longer. Until it clears, your assistant still answers every call, books jobs, and sends confirmations and reminders by email; the moment it clears, texting turns on by itself and we'll tell you. Carrier registration is included in your plan — there's no separate setup fee.
Can it answer more than one call at once?
Yes — two people calling at 7:05 am both get answered. That capacity runs on shared phone and AI networks, so it is best-effort rather than a guaranteed number of simultaneous calls; in a rare spike an extra caller gets voicemail and a text back rather than being dropped. The Terms (Service limits & fair use) say the same.
How do packs work?
One-time purchases, bought in-app, with no subscription and no auto-renew. They're used only after your plan's included allowance and stay yours for 12 months. Packs aren't covered by the 30-day guarantee.
What does cancelling look like?
Cancel any time from Billing. Your plan keeps working to the end of the period you paid for, then your assistant stops answering and the number is released. Export your data before or after. No retention offers.
I run two locations — do I pay twice?
No. Office includes a second business or location — its own number, its own assistant, its own calendar — under one bill, sharing 600 minutes and 1,500 texts.
30days to decide.
If Conduit isn't right for you, cancel within 30 days of going live and your first payment is refunded in full. The guarantee covers your first subscription payment; minute and text packs aren't refundable.
After that, cancel any time from Billing — your plan runs to the end of the period you paid for.
