AI receptionist vs missed-call text-back for med spas
A missed-call text tells the person you saw the ring. An AI receptionist tries to handle the call. Weave's base plan starts at $199 per month and includes Missed Call Text. Weave's AI Receptionist is in early access, and the plans page does not print its price. This page does not pick a winner.
In short
Buy the missed-call text when the leak is a ring nobody answered and a human can still text back. Buy an AI receptionist when you need the call itself handled, and only if that product can book into the system you already run. On Weave those are different line items. Missed Call Text is in the $199 base. The AI Receptionist price is Not listed.

Side by side
| Question | Missed-call text-back | AI receptionist |
|---|---|---|
| What the caller gets | A text after the missed call, then a two-way thread if they reply. On Weave, Missed Call Text and two-way texting are in the $199 base plan. | A voice, and on some products a text, that tries to answer. Booking depends on the product. It is not automatic just because the tool says AI. |
| Published price | Weave's base plan starts at $199 per month. Missed Call Text is included there. Coordinate and Attract are $149 per month each and are not required for that text. The page also offers the base with 2 phones and does not print a separate phone-hardware price in the FAQ. | Weave's own AI Receptionist is labeled early access and the plans page does not print a price. Other tools in the table below publish a card price, or they say Not listed. Those dates are the listing dates, not all rechecked on October 27. |
| Books the appointment | A missed-call text does not book by itself. Someone, or another product, still has to take the reply and put it on the book. | Some do, into a named system. Boulevard's Beau listing says it books inside Boulevard. MedspAI names Boulevard, Mangomint, and other EMRs and does not publish a price. Quo is a phone line with an AI-call credit and does not write into those charts. |
| Contract and trial | Weave's plans FAQ says no long-term contract is required, yearly discounts exist, and there is no free trial for the full platform. | Read the listing. They are not the same. Quo's pricing page offers a 7-day trial. Weave's AI price is still Not listed, so there is no trial term to quote for it. |

Questions this page can answer
- Is an AI receptionist better than a missed-call text for a med spa?
- This page does not pick one. A missed-call text is the cheaper save when the call already bounced and a person can reply. An AI receptionist is the tool that tries to handle the call, including after hours, and only some of them can book into the system you already use. Weave sells both ideas. Missed Call Text is in the $199 base plan. The AI Receptionist price is not on the plans page.
- How much does Weave's missed-call text cost?
- It is included in Weave's base plan, which starts at $199 per month. The Coordinate and Attract bundles are $149 per month each. You do not have to add them to get Missed Call Text. That was on getweave.com/plans/ on October 27, 2026.
- Does Weave publish an AI receptionist price?
- No. On October 27, 2026 the plans page labeled AI Receptionist for voice and for messaging as early access and did not print a price. Do not treat the $199 base as the AI receptionist price.
