# GetHelpdesk.AI Pricing

**$399 per month, flat.** One-time **$500 setup fee**, charged up front. **First month
free.** Month to month, no long-term contract.

## What the $399 includes

- Unlimited calls, with no monthly cap, no per-call charge and no overage rate
- Answering 24/7, including after-hours, weekends, holidays and closed days
- Direct appointment booking into the practice management system (Open Dental,
  Dentrix, Eaglesoft, iDentalSoft)
- Emergency triage and escalation on the practice's own protocol
- Multi-language support
- Call transcripts and summaries
- Practice-specific AI configuration
- Founder-led onboarding and staff training

## What is not charged

- No per-minute billing
- No per-call charges
- No after-hours or holiday surcharge
- No charge for hold time or transfers

## Volume

There is no included-volume ceiling: calls are unlimited and a busy month costs the
same as a quiet one. Multi-location groups and DSOs are priced on a custom basis
against the number of locations, not call volume.

## How this compares

Traditional dental answering services typically bill $0.75-$1.50 per minute including
hold time and transfers, which lands most practices at $800-$2,000+ per month, and they
take messages rather than booking appointments. A practice with 200 calls a month
averaging three minutes pays $450-$900 in call fees alone before any after-hours
surcharge.

## Setup time

Most practices are live within 5-7 days of kickoff.
