Why it stands out:

  • No minute metering: repeat callers count once a month
  • Free demo agent: build and hear it before you pay
  • SOC 2 and HIPAA compliant, according to Goodcall

The catch:

  • The Starter plan covers 100 unique customers and allows only one external tool, so a busy shop with several systems outgrows it fast.
