Call Economics Calculator
Use your own call volume and job economics to estimate revenue at risk. Then normalize published provider pricing against the same workload.
What providers may cost at your workload
Normalized from each provider's billing unit. Unknown inputs stay unknown.

Cash billing can differ from normalized economic cost when a vendor sells usage in reload blocks. Provider performance is not assumed by this calculator.
How the calculation works
The model first estimates missed calls, qualified lost leads and potential lost jobs. Revenue at risk is shown separately from gross profit at risk. Break-even and ROI calculations only use gross profit when that input is available.
Missed calls = inbound calls × missed-call ratePotential lost jobs = missed calls × qualified-lead rate × booking rateGross profit at risk = potential lost jobs × gross profit per jobBreak-even jobs = normalized provider cost ÷ gross profit per jobWhat this calculator does not assume
It does not assume that an AI receptionist will recover a fixed percentage of calls, increase conversion by a vendor-promoted amount, or produce a guaranteed return. Recovery percentages are user-selected scenarios, not provider performance claims.
Why normalized cost can differ from the bill
Some providers sell usage in blocks or credits. In those cases, the calculator can show both the estimated cash charge and the economic cost of usage consumed. Purchased but unused credits are not treated as consumed cost when the evidence says they carry forward.
Provider pricing changes frequently. Reverify final plan terms with the provider before purchasing.
