Ruby Receptionists figures from its own published pricing pages, checked August 2026
At Ruby's entry plan, a busy week can eat your 50 monthly minutes before Wednesday, and the meter keeps running. AlwaysRespond is flat regardless of volume and actually runs the job after the call: booked, dispatched, invoiced, reviewed.
The plan price is published, and the AI keeps answering however busy the month gets.

$250/mo buys only 50 minutes of answering
Per-minute billing makes busy months unpredictable
