What My AI Front Desk is

My AI Front Desk (also branded "Frontdesk AI") is a self-serve, credit-metered AI receptionist. As of 2026 there's no permanently free plan — just a 7-day free trial, no card required. Paid plans run $20/mo (Basic, $16/mo billed annually) with zero voice minutes included — that tier only covers chatbot, SMS, and email — up to $99/mo (Business-in-a-Box, $79/mo annually) with 200 voice minutes included, then $0.25/min after that. A custom Partner/Enterprise tier drops the per-minute rate as low as $0.07/min. It's a flexible DIY dashboard: you configure Q&A scripts, FAQs, and integrations yourself.

People look for My AI Front Desk alternatives when they'd rather not build and tune the assistant from scratch, when minute caps constrain a busier line, or when they want an assistant that already knows their trade's vocabulary.

Where NeverMissAI fits better

Less to build yourself

Instead of scripting Q&A from a blank dashboard, NeverMissAI starts from your trade's vocabulary and common call types, so it's useful sooner with a short guided onboarding.

Generous included minutes

Every plan ships with a real allowance — 200/600/1,000 minutes a month (~80/240/400 answered calls) — so a busier month rarely touches overage, and when it does it's a published $0.45–$0.50/min rather than a forced tier upgrade.

Booking, qualifying, routing included

Appointment booking, lead qualification, and urgent-call transfer come standard from the Starter plan, configured to your rules.

When My AI Front Desk might be the better pick

If you enjoy configuring your own assistant, want to try it risk-free (7-day trial, no card), and have light call volume that fits inside a plan's included minutes, My AI Front Desk's DIY flexibility and lower entry price are a genuine advantage.

NeverMissAI is the better fit when you'd rather have the trade-specific setup handled for you and keep a flat, predictable price instead of watching a minute allowance.

Frequently asked questions

Why pick NeverMissAI over My AI Front Desk?

NeverMissAI does more of the trade-specific configuration for you, includes appointment booking and routing on every tier, and its plans carry bigger included allowances (200–1,000 minutes) sized by answered calls. My AI Front Desk is more DIY, with a 7-day free trial to start (no permanently free plan).

Does My AI Front Desk have a free plan?

Not anymore — just a 7-day free trial with no credit card required. Paid plans start at $20/mo (Basic, zero voice minutes included — chat/SMS/email only) and $99/mo (Business-in-a-Box, 200 voice minutes included, then $0.25/min). NeverMissAI starts at $97/mo flat with 200 included talk-minutes and done-for-you setup.

Is NeverMissAI metered by minutes?

Plans are flat monthly with 200/600/1,000 included minutes (~80/240/400 answered calls); only past that does a $0.45–$0.50/min rate apply, depending on plan. The practical difference from My AI Front Desk is a much bigger included allowance and trade-tuned setup, not the absence of minutes.

Will it already understand my industry?

Yes. NeverMissAI is configured per vertical, so the assistant uses your trade's language from the first call rather than a script you build from scratch.

How long does onboarding take?

About five minutes — your business details, hours, services, FAQs, and transfer rules, then forward or port your number.
