Ruby

AI receptionists

Ruby (Ruby Receptionists, Inc.) is a US live virtual receptionist and website chat service. Calls are answered by human receptionists, and its AI features support those receptionists rather than answering calls on their own: an in-call assistant called Call Nav, AI call and voicemail transcripts, caller sentiment analysis and robocall filtering. Plans are monthly bundles of receptionist minutes, and Ruby says the AI features are included in all plans.

  • The plans and pricing page shows $250 for 50 minutes, but the answering-service page says plans 'start at $245/month for 50 minutes' and the live virtual receptionists page says they 'start at just $245 per month'. Live chat plans are priced separately ($143/month for 10 chats to $520 for 50), and the page also shows receptionist-plus-chat bundles. Larger volumes are quoted by sales. AI features are included in every plan at no extra cost. Overage rates, trial and contract terms are not stated.
