Sameday starts at $449/mo, capped at 500 minutes. Fasrad is a flat fee with no meter, booking into its own calendar and CRM — web and email too.
Sameday answers home-services phones on minute-capped plans wired to your FSM; Fasrad is an unmetered flat-fee agent that books into its own calendar and also covers web chat and email.
Sameday is a focused AI customer-service rep for home services — HVAC, plumbing, pest, roofing — that answers calls 24/7 and writes booked jobs straight into ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, FieldRoutes, or ServiceFusion. It's YC-backed and markets a 'books over 92% of jobs' figure (their number, self-reported; independent reviews are essentially nonexistent either way). People go looking for a Sameday alternative when they read the pricing page closely.
As of mid-2026 that page says: Launch from $449/mo with a 500-minute monthly cap across up to three locations; Scale from $789/mo at 1,000 minutes; Enterprise — custom-priced — is where multilingual support, API access, and custom integrations live. Note what the cap means for this industry: your call volume peaks exactly when a heat wave or a cold snap hits, so the meter runs hardest in the month you can least afford to ration the phone. The 'from' on both prices, and the FSM dependence — outside the supported list, you're negotiating Enterprise — are the other fine print.
Where Fasrad goes further:
What Fasrad is not: a turnkey FSM-integrated dispatcher. It books into its own calendar and CRM rather than living natively inside ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro — though where those tools expose an API, the agent can push the job to them too, and deeper prebuilt FSM sync is on the roadmap. Outbound calls and SMS follow-ups can be added through its phone provider; route-optimizing AI dispatch and live handoff to a human tech aren't the job it's built for.
Pick Fasrad when you need every call answered around the clock, the job booked onto a calendar your office actually checks, the customer history kept for you, and the same receptionist covering the website form-fillers and email inquiries you currently lose — for a flat fee, with no one counting your minutes during the heat wave.
These pages cover the adjacent jobs buyers usually compare before choosing an AI agent.
Fasrad books into its own calendar and CRM and can push jobs to ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro through their API, with deeper prebuilt FSM sync on the roadmap. For a smaller shop without an FSM — or with one you wouldn't miss — it's a clean replacement: every call answered 24/7, jobs booked mid-call, customer history kept, plus web chat and email, for a flat fee instead of a metered 'from $449'.
No. Fasrad is a flat subscription with no per-minute metering. Sameday's published plans cap at 500 minutes (Launch) and 1,000 minutes (Scale) per month — and home-services call volume spikes exactly when the weather does, which is when a cap costs you.
Yes — it triages the call ('do you smell gas?'), offers a real window, and locks it in before the caller hangs up. The booking goes onto the agent's own calendar with the address and issue noted, and the contact plus transcript land in its CRM. There's no prebuilt one-click FSM sync — though where ServiceTitan or Housecall Pro expose an API, the agent can push the job across too.
Contact, summary, and full transcript are auto-filed in the built-in CRM, and the appointment sits on the calendar. When the same customer calls next season, the agent already has the house, the system, and the history.
Yes. Forward your existing line — after-hours only, overflow only, or full-time — or use the dedicated number Fasrad gives you. The number on your trucks doesn't change, and setup takes minutes.
$49/month or $490/year — cancel anytime Sameday's pricing page (as of mid-2026) starts Launch at $449/mo for 500 minutes and Scale at $789/mo for 1,000, with API and custom integrations reserved for custom-priced Enterprise. Fasrad is one flat fee, unmetered, and it includes the web chat and email handling Sameday doesn't offer at any tier.
Yes. Sameday is built for the HVAC/plumbing/pest vertical; Fasrad is a general receptionist. The same agent answers for a locksmith, a landscaper, a clinic, or your side business — you write the greeting, the service area, and the booking rules.
