Quick answer
Blogrator’s AI SMS answering costs ₹7,584 a month for AI replies to every inbound text, ₹12,384 a month with appointment booking and missed-call text-back, and ₹19,104 a month with follow-up texts plus Facebook, Instagram and website chat. It is month to month. Text messages are billed at cost.
Last updated 25 September 2026 · How much does it cost? · Which one do I need?Customers text businesses at all hours, and a reply three hours later is often a lost job. AI SMS answering replies within seconds, day or night, using your prices, services, hours and FAQs.
It answers questions, collects details, books into your calendar and hands the conversation to you when a person is needed. You see every conversation in one inbox on your phone.
Runs on GoHighLevel and Twilio. Business texting to US numbers needs A2P 10DLC registration in your business name, and Canadian carriers filter unregistered business texts, so we register every account; we do the paperwork with you. Text usage is passed through at cost.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I keep my existing number?
Often yes: many landlines and VoIP numbers can be text-enabled. If yours cannot, we give you a local business number to put on your site and ads.
How is this different from Never Miss a Lead?
Never Miss a Lead starts from missed phone calls. AI SMS answering replies to every text anyone sends you, from ad replies to existing customers, and on higher tiers also covers missed calls, DMs and web chat.
What does texting cost?
Text messages are billed at cost by the carrier, usually a fraction of a cent to a few cents per message in the US and Canada. We show you the usage every month.
Will customers know it is AI?
We tell customers they are chatting with an assistant and make it easy to reach a person. Being open about it builds trust and keeps you within texting rules.
What if the AI does not know the answer?
It says it will check, collects the details and hands the conversation to you with a notification. We then add the answer so it knows next time.
What is A2P 10DLC?
It is the registration US carriers require for business texting from local 10-digit numbers, including texts from Canadian businesses to US customers. Canadian carriers also filter unregistered business texts. Without it, messages get blocked. We submit it in your business name with you.
Does it work outside the US and Canada?
Yes, in most countries Twilio supports. Rules and prices vary by country; we check yours on the call.

Before you buy
Your AI answering: your number, your registration, your call data
Anything that answers your phone or texts on your behalf needs to be in your name, not ours. Here is how it is set up. These are written commitments; if you want them confirmed under the company name, reply to your order email and we will send them signed.
Our prices: AI text reply ₹7,584 a month, with booking and missed calls ₹12,384, with follow-up and DMs ₹19,104. Text usage is billed by the carrier at cost. Month to month.
1. Who owns the phone number?
You do. The number is provisioned in a Twilio account in your name, or as a GoHighLevel LC Phone number inside your own sub-account, so it moves with you. If you already have a business number, it can be forwarded or ported; nothing is registered to Blogrator.
2. Whose name is on the texting registration?
Yours. US A2P 10DLC registration is filed under your legal business name and EIN, so carriers deliver your texts and the approval belongs to your business, not to us. Canadian numbers are set up on a verified toll-free or registered number in your name.
3. Where do the call recordings and conversations live?
In your account. Transcripts, recordings and contact records are stored in your GoHighLevel sub-account or Twilio account, and export at any time. We do not keep copies.
4. What are the usage costs?
Carrier and AI usage at cost, billed through the platform: US texts about ₹1 per segment, calls a few cents a minute, AI voice minutes at the provider's rate. We give you an estimate for your call volume before you order and pass costs through with no markup.
5. Is the AI compliant with texting rules?
Every automated text includes opt-out wording, quiet hours are enforced (8am–9pm local, stricter where state law requires), and consent is captured on your forms. We set this up; you stay responsible for what your business promises.
6. What happens when I cancel?
Monthly plans stop at the end of the month; one-time builds are yours to keep. Your number, registration, contacts and recordings are all in your accounts, so removing our access is the only step. No exit fee.
How this compares with Smith.ai and Quo
| Option | What you get | Published price | The catch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smith.ai AI receptionist | AI answers calls on their platform | Free for 25 calls, then about ₹14,400 a month for 75 calls | Per-call pricing; number on their platform |
| Quo (formerly OpenPhone) | Business phone app with basic auto-replies | From about ₹1,440–₹1,824 per user a month | You still handle the conversation |
| Blogrator | Built in your accounts, AI answers and books | ₹7,584–₹19,104 a month, usage at cost | Your number, your data, usage at cost |
Published prices checked 26 September 2026; vendors change them, so treat these as the order of magnitude.
