AI receptionist ROI calculator
Every unanswered call is a booking that may go to a competitor. Enter your call volume, how many calls you miss and what a booking is worth, and see what answering those calls could recover each month, what the AI minutes would cost and where you break even.
Quick answer
Is an AI receptionist worth it? Work it out from three numbers: the calls you miss today (busy lines plus after-hours calls), the share of those callers who would book if someone answered, and the average value of a booking. Multiply them to get the potential monthly value, then subtract the AI cost, which is the AI minutes used multiplied by your per-minute rate. The break-even point is the AI cost divided by the value of one booking. This calculator does the arithmetic; treat the result as a scenario estimate and confirm it in a pilot.

Check readinessHow this calculator works
Missed calls per month are the business-hours calls multiplied by the missed share, plus after-hours calls, times the open days. Potential bookings are those calls multiplied by the share that would book if answered, and the potential value multiplies bookings by the average booking value. AI minutes are the answered calls multiplied by the average call length, and the AI cost multiplies minutes by your per-minute rate. Break-even is the AI cost divided by the average booking value, rounded up.
All results are scenario estimates based only on the numbers you enter. They are not a forecast, a quote or a guarantee of revenue. The default AI cost per minute is DialerBee's $0.60 managed AI rate. Telephony, platform seats and setup are not included. See the AI receptionist page for what it handles and the pricing page for plans.
