Quick questions shouldn’t cost a full call
Many calls are short: hours, directions, “do you do this?”. With per-call pricing, each one uses up a whole call from your plan. With GreetWise, a one-minute call uses one minute.
- 250 minutes for $49
- 1,000 minutes for $149
- 2,000 minutes for $299

- Languages beyond English and Spanish
- A HIPAA BAA (on their custom plan)
- Mostly long calls, where per-call pricing works out cheaper
