Why people switch
Why My AI Front Desk users look at other options
My AI Front Desk, now branded Frontdesk, sells one main plan, Business-in-a-Box, at $99 a month or $79 a month billed annually. It bundles 200 voice minutes with chatbot conversations, texts, email drafts, form submissions and outbound calls, and its pricing page says there is no permanent free plan, only a 7-day trial, though its homepage FAQ describes a Free plan with limited monthly minutes. Every price on this page was checked on the vendor's own site on October 30, 2026.
You pay for a bundle to get 200 minutes
Owners who only want calls answered use a fraction of what the plan includes. At the monthly price, the 200 voice minutes work out to just under 50 cents a minute before any of the other features.
Usage past the bundle is counted in credits
Extra usage is paid in credits at $0.01 each, and one voice minute takes 25 credits, or $0.25. The 1,000 overage credits included each month cover 40 extra voice minutes, and then the meter runs.
API access needs the custom plan
My AI Front Desk's Business-in-a-Box plan connects to other apps through Zapier. Direct API access and custom integrations are part of the Partner / Enterprise plan, which is priced by monthly volume.
The free plan is unclear
Its pricing page says Frontdesk has no permanently free plan and offers a 7-day trial, while its homepage FAQ describes a Free plan with limited monthly minutes. After the trial, the lowest listed price is $79 a month on annual billing.

The options
5 alternatives to My AI Front Desk
Where Voxipo fits
Where Voxipo fits for a My AI Front Desk user
Booking during the call on every plan
The agent reads your availability and books callers into Google Calendar, Outlook, Cal.com or GoHighLevel during the call. Your business hours and minimum notice decide which times it can offer.
More phone minutes for the money
Voxipo's $49 Solo plan includes 250 minutes and the $99 Starter plan 600. Past the allowance, minutes cost $0.30 on Solo and $0.25 on Starter.
Missed callers hear back from your number
Conditional forwarding on your current line sends the calls you miss to Voxipo. Voxipo then places one callback from your SMS-verified caller ID, 30 seconds later by default, between 8am and 9pm in their time.
Try it without entering a card
Your 14-day free trial starts when you create your first workspace, and no card is needed. You build the agent and talk to it in the browser. Connecting a phone number for live calls and callbacks needs a paid plan.
What Voxipo does not do yet
- Voxipo is built for phone calls. The standard agent setup has no texting tool, and SMS campaigns are not available.
- Live call transfer is not available yet. The agent stores the call details for your team to follow up.
- Callbacks go out only between 8am and 9pm in the caller's time, and not to callers outside the US and Canada.
- One appointment per time slot, so two staff cannot both be booked into the same hour.
The honest answer
When My AI Front Desk is still the better buy
The bundle is the point of My AI Front Desk. If you use most of it, the $99 price covers a lot.
- You want a website chatbot, two-way texting, email drafts and form handling from the same vendor as your phone agent.
- You want calls, texts, email drafts and website chat handled by one bundle.
- Callers need to reach a person during the call through My AI Front Desk's Agent Actions.
- You serve callers in many languages, and the 20+ that My AI Front Desk lists cover them.
- You run an agency and want the Frontdesk partner program, which lets partners resell it under their own brand.
Switching
How to switch from My AI Front Desk to Voxipo
Start a Voxipo trial
Your 14-day free trial starts when you create your first workspace, and no card is needed. Write the greeting and questions, upload the documents the agent should answer from, and test it in your browser.
Connect the same calendar
Voxipo books into Google Calendar, Outlook, Cal.com or GoHighLevel. Connect the calendar your My AI Front Desk agent books into today, then set your hours and minimum notice.
Forward missed calls to Voxipo
Once you choose a plan, if your carrier supports it, set its conditional forwarding (busy and no answer) to the Voxipo forwarding number and verify your business number by SMS so callbacks show it.
Decide what happens to the rest of the bundle
Before you cancel, decide whether you still need the chatbot, texting or email drafts, since Voxipo replaces only the phone part.
