My AI Front Desk caps minutes and meters overages. Fasrad is one flat-fee agent with real memory, a permanent record, and follow-ups it runs itself.
My AI Front Desk is a capable multi-channel receptionist sold in measured portions of minutes, credits, pages, and logs. Fasrad is one flat-fee agent with full memory, permanent history, and follow-ups it starts itself.
Of the AI receptionists out there, My AI Front Desk is the one shaped most like Fasrad. It covers calls, texts, email, and web in one system, fills a built-in CRM, auto-creates tickets, and escalates to humans, at $99 a month ($79 annual) for the Business-in-a-Box plan. So if you're comparing it as a My AI Front Desk alternative, channels aren't the question. What matters is how much of each channel you actually get, and what kind of intelligence sits behind it.
The $99 plan includes 200 voice minutes, 100 chat conversations, and 400 SMS messages a month as of mid-2026. Past those, everything runs on credits at $10 per 1,000: 25 per voice minute, 4 per SMS, 5 per chat conversation, 4 per form lead. That works out to roughly $0.25 per voice minute of overage. The same plan carries hard caps too, with a 20-page knowledge base, 2 editor seats, and retention of your last 200 logs. Beyond about 25 interactions a day, their own positioning points you to custom Enterprise pricing. It's all published. It's a receptionist sold in portions.
Fasrad is a full agent, and it's sized that way. It learns your business through conversation and keeps every contact, summary, and transcript permanently in its built-in CRM. It speaks with a personality you set and a greeting you write, and it follows up on its own across phone, web chat, email, and Telegram, from the no-show nudge to the reply to the reply. One flat subscription covers it, with no credits to track.
Where Fasrad goes further:
Out of the box, booking and records live in Fasrad's own calendar and CRM. When a deposit's needed, it texts a secure payment link so you still collect on the call. Connect a messaging API and it sends SMS and runs outbound calls. Point its API tool at HubSpot, Pipedrive, or Salesforce and it syncs contacts and summaries there, and it flags urgent calls for a human to pick up. My AI Front Desk bundles SMS and a reseller program in-product, and Fasrad reaches the same outcomes by wiring the tools it already has.
Both products will answer your phone tomorrow. One sells the front desk in measured portions. Fasrad runs it as one job, remembered in full and billed flat.
Buyers usually compare these adjacent jobs before choosing an AI agent.
Often, yes. Both answer calls 24/7, cover web and email, and keep a built-in CRM. Where My AI Front Desk bundles pieces in-product, Fasrad wires the tools it already has: a messaging API for SMS, its API tool pointed at HubSpot, Pipedrive, or Salesforce to sync there, and a flag on urgent calls for a human to pick up. What Fasrad really replaces is the portioning of minutes, credits, and caps, and it runs your whole front desk as one agent with real memory.
Credits are $10 per 1,000 on their published rates as of mid-2026. Voice costs 25 credits per minute (about $0.25/min), SMS 4 per message, chat 5 per conversation, and form leads 4 each, applied after you use up the included 200 voice minutes, 100 chats, and 400 texts. Fasrad has no credit balance, so there's nothing to top up.
Yes. The agent checks live availability in its own calendar mid-call, offers concrete times, and confirms before the caller hangs up. The CRM entry and confirmation email happen in the same motion. Across this category, booking usually rides on Google, Outlook, or Zapier-class integrations. Fasrad owns its calendar, so the booking is finished on the call.
Contact, summary, and full transcript are filed in the built-in CRM permanently, with no last-200-logs window. Then the agent keeps working. It can send the confirmation, follow up if there's no reply, and recognize the same customer when they come back by phone, chat, or email.
Yes. Forward your existing number or take a dedicated one. Your published number, signage, and listings don't change.
Fasrad's agent remembers in the working sense. It retains what you tell it in conversation, what callers tell it, and what happened in past interactions, and it carries all of that across every channel with no page budget. My AI Front Desk's $99 plan caps the knowledge base at 20 pages and editing at 2 seats, so knowledge is something you upload and maintain.
Start with a 7-day free trial. Full access, no card needed. Then $49 per month. My AI Front Desk runs $99 a month ($79 annual) as of mid-2026, with included volumes on each channel and credit-billed overage on all of them. Beyond roughly 25 interactions a day they point you to custom Enterprise pricing. Fasrad is one flat fee at any volume, with no credits or enterprise cliff.
