# Which AI receptionists have no per-minute fees?

5 of 24 tracked AI receptionists publish a flat plan with no per-minute or per-call usage fee — the monthly bill is the same at any call volume: Goodcall, Loman, NextPhone, Slang.ai, Thoughtly. The cheapest is Goodcall from $79/mo. Some still cap a non-usage dimension (for example unique customers per month), which we note per vendor rather than calling it "unlimited."

## Related questions

### Does 'no per-minute fee' mean truly unlimited?

Not always. These plans drop per-minute and per-call billing, but a few cap a different dimension — most commonly unique customers per month, with a small charge beyond it. We record any such cap in the vendor profile so 'unlimited minutes' is never overstated.

### When is a flat no-overage plan worth it?

It wins at high or unpredictable call volume, where per-minute or per-call billing would balloon. The cheapest here is Goodcall at $79/mo; below a few hundred calls a month a metered plan is often cheaper, so compare at your real volume.

### How do you confirm there's no hidden usage fee?

We only place a vendor here when its public plan states no per-minute and no per-call charge and lists no metered overage. Where a vendor publishes any per-unit rate, it appears on the metered pages instead. Always re-check the current pricing page before purchase.
