Use your own call volume, close rate, and customer value to model the revenue at risk — then compare it with a managed AI receptionist plan.
Your front desk is already with someone, the line is busy, and the caller is dialing the next name on their list before you hear the voicemail.
It answers in your business's name, follows the script you approved, and never puts a caller on hold to go find someone.
Appointment on your calendar, contact in your CRM, and the full written summary of the call waiting in your inbox.
Choose your industry to load a conservative, editable example and see where the reliable inputs should come from. Then replace it with real numbers from your phone log, booking system, CRM, and sales records.
Industry selection now changes the example values and recalculates the model. Every value remains editable.
Medical: phone-system missed-call reports, completed appointment data from your scheduler, and collected revenue per new patient from billing records.
A healthcare starting scenario built from published call-handling guardrails. Dollar value, raw call volume, and recovery remain editable planning assumptions.
At these inputs, potentially recoverable customer value is 6.4× the monthly plan fee.

Nothing happens off the record. Every call arrives as a written summary — what the caller wanted, what was promised, what got booked. If you would have handled it differently, you change the script and it changes on the next call.
Call recordings, transcripts and summaries are configured during setup and follow the consent and data-handling rules agreed for your business.

Every word of the call, what was promised, and the next step
The model does not pretend to know your business. It shows exactly which internal numbers to use, how they are combined, and what the estimate leaves out.
The strongest scenario comes from your own systems, not a broad industry headline.
Missed calls × close rateCustomers at risk × average customer valueRevenue at risk × recovery assumption(Monthly recoverable customer value − monthly plan fee) × 12Every plan combines a configured AI receptionist with ongoing management. Choose capacity based on connected call time and carrier-billed SMS segments.
Choose a business type to load an editable workload example, or enter a typical month from your own records. The advisor checks minute and SMS capacity plus the minimum workflow needed for booking, routing, or intake; it does not estimate revenue.
Medical example: 160 inbound calls, 3.5-minute average, 70% AI coverage, 240 SMS segments, and 15% peak buffer. These are sizing assumptions, not an industry average.
Plus provides room for a typical month and the selected peak buffer. Confirm with 30–60 days of actual usage.
For low-volume businesses that need reliable overflow or after-hours coverage.
For active service businesses that need booking, transfers, and faster follow-up.
For teams with heavier call traffic, qualification steps, and multiple workflows.
For high-volume teams needing deeper routing, reporting, and optimization.
Final pricing is confirmed after a brief discovery call based on workflow complexity and standard integrations. Multi-location deployments, outbound campaigns, payment capture, regulated requirements, and custom integrations are quoted separately.
Ask about waiving the standard implementation fee with a separately signed 6-month minimum service agreement on Plus, Pro, and Elite plans. Month-to-month service and custom-scope fees are excluded.
Allowances reset each monthly billing cycle and do not roll over. AI receptionist minutes are shared between connected inbound calls and approved connected outbound calls. Connected calls may be rounded under carrier billing. Long texts, special characters, and emojis may use multiple SMS segments.
Standard overage is $0.25 per additional AI receptionist minute and $0.06 per additional SMS segment. Overage or additional usage credits are billed separately. Repeated overage may make a higher-capacity plan more economical.
Standard one-time implementation ranges from $499 to $1,499. Month-to-month service does not include a fee waiver. A waiver may be available under a separately signed 6-month minimum agreement on Plus, Pro, and Elite; early cancellation makes the applicable waived fee due. Custom-scope fees are excluded.
Automated review requests require an approved destination and any required business-profile connection; related SMS counts against the plan. Elite outbound reminders require KYC, documented consent, and compliant workflow setup; connected time counts against included AI minutes. Elite chat setup requires a compatible website and supported Conversation AI configuration.
Standard U.S./Canada use only. Carrier registration, regulatory requirements, international traffic, healthcare/HIPAA, multi-location deployments, broader outbound campaigns, payment capture, and custom integrations require scope review and may cost more.
The receptionist works inside an approved scope: answer, identify intent, collect details, book or route, document the call, and escalate when a person is needed.
Business information, approved FAQs, hours, services, and policies are configured and tested before launch.
Routing rules define when to schedule, when to transfer, and when to collect details for human follow-up.
Contact details, intent, summary, outcome, and next step can be stored and sent to the right team member.
Industry selection loads a conservative planning example. Published call-handling research sets broad guardrails, while customer value, raw call volume, AI coverage, SMS volume, peak buffer, and recovery remain editable assumptions. For a decision-quality model, replace them with your own call log, CRM or booking history, and sales data.
No. It is an educational planning estimate. Answering more calls can create more opportunities, but actual bookings and revenue depend on lead quality, demand, pricing, staff capacity, follow-up, and many other factors.
Call usage is based on connected time and may be rounded to full minutes under carrier billing. SMS is billed by segment, not simply by the number of messages. Long messages, special characters, or emojis can create multiple segments.
Standard overage is $0.25 per additional AI receptionist minute and $0.06 per additional SMS segment. Overage or additional usage credits are billed separately. We review usage and can recommend a higher-capacity plan when repeated overages make an upgrade more economical.
Usually, yes. Calls can often be forwarded to the AI receptionist, or number-porting options can be reviewed. The final setup depends on your carrier, current phone system, transfer rules, and desired call flow.
It is designed to handle a defined first-response role, not every situation. Complex, sensitive, regulated, billing, technical, or judgment-heavy calls should be transferred or documented for a qualified person.
Standard one-time implementation ranges from $499 to $1,499 and is not waived with month-to-month service. An implementation-fee waiver may be available through a separately signed 6-month minimum service agreement on Plus, Pro, and Elite plans; custom-scope fees remain separate. Any carrier registration, special compliance, regulated-industry, international, multi-location, outbound, payment, or custom integration cost is disclosed and approved before launch.
Only after a separate requirements and compliance review. Standard plans do not automatically include HIPAA or other regulated-industry requirements, legal review, special data handling, or consent configuration.
Yes. Every paid implementation includes guided test calls and a launch review inside the approved scope before the receptionist goes live. This is a managed acceptance process, not a public free trial. Implementation work, usage, and third-party costs remain subject to the approved scope and Nishstudios Refund Policy.
The industry example only fills the fields in until you replace them.
Answering more calls creates more opportunities. What happens next still depends on lead quality, demand, pricing, capacity and follow-up.
Emojis and special characters switch the message to a shorter segment length, which is why one character can add a segment.
$0.25 per additional minute, $0.06 per additional SMS segment. Repeated overage usually means the next plan up is cheaper.
Porting the number to us is possible instead, but it is rarely necessary. The final setup depends on your carrier and phone system.
You set the transfer rules. Complex, sensitive, regulated and judgement-heavy calls are meant to leave the AI.
Final pricing is confirmed after a short discovery call. Carrier registration, regulated requirements, multi-location, outbound and custom integrations are quoted separately and approved before launch.
Healthcare, dental and legal intake each carry their own requirements. They are scoped, priced and approved before anything answers a call.
If it says something you would have said differently, the script changes before a customer ever reaches it.
Open a question to see its answer here.
After scope approval, we configure the receptionist around your approved business information and real call scenarios. Guided test calls and your launch review happen before it answers customer calls.
