AI Phone and AI SMS
answering service.

No. PepperSend uses the same AI models that power ChatGPT and Claude. Responses are conversational and natural. You write your own business personality into the knowledge base, so it sounds like your business, not a bot. Most callers don't realize they're texting with an AI.

No. PepperSend sits on top of your existing phone system. You keep your number. It works with RingCentral, OpenPhone, Intermedia, Grasshopper, and most other VoIP providers. Setup takes under 10 minutes with no porting required.

After your first month at $1.50 (90% off the $15/mo base fee), you move to the regular pay-as-you-go rate: $15/mo base + $0.03 per AI SMS + $0.40 per minute for AI Voice. You can also upgrade to Inferno ($249/mo) for 1,000 SMS and 600 voice minutes included. Cancel anytime with no penalty.

PepperSend is built with TCPA compliance at the core. Every message includes a required opt-out footer. Quiet hours (federal plus state-specific) are enforced automatically. Opt-out requests are honored immediately and logged with a 4-year audit trail. You are texting back someone who just called your business number, which falls under the "established business relationship" exception. We recommend reviewing your state's specific rules, but the defaults are designed to keep you safe.

Most businesses are live in under 10 minutes. Create your account, paste in your services and hours as a knowledge base, connect your phone number, and you're done. The AI starts responding to missed calls immediately. No developers, no IT, no contracts.

No card required to start. You get 5 free AI conversations and 10 AI voice minutes to try it out. When you're ready to go live, your first month is 90% off -- just $1.50. There is no contract, and you can cancel from the dashboard anytime.

You don't need one. PepperSend has a built-in Contacts dashboard where every captured lead lands automatically with their name, phone, need, and full conversation history. If you later want to push leads into HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, or another system, that is available as an add-on.

Yes. You can upload a CSV of existing contacts into the dashboard so the AI recognizes returning callers and personalizes its responses. We also support importing from common CRMs and spreadsheets during onboarding.

That is up to you. By default the AI uses your business's name and a warm, professional tone, so most callers do not realize they are talking to AI. You can also configure it to disclose ("Hi, you've reached the AI assistant for ___") in industries where disclosure is preferred (such as legal, medical, or financial). Either way, the AI will hand off to you when a caller asks for a real person.

Yes! Scroll up to the Live AI demo section and click the orb to talk to PepperSend AI live. You can also call (855) 286-9330 from any phone, anytime. The AI you'll hear is the same one your customers would talk to (with your business's knowledge base swapped in once you sign up).
