Full AI Suite Pricing

$2,000

One-time setup

+

$5,000

Per month

Month-to-month. No annual contract. No per-call or per-user fees.

We get this question constantly, and we get why. AI sales and automation tools have a reputation for hiding the real number behind per-call pricing, per-user fees, or a base rate that only includes a fraction of what you actually need.

So let us be direct. The Full AI Suite is $2,000 to set up and $5,000 per month. That number does not go up because you get more calls. It does not go up because you hire another person. It does not change because you need support or a configuration update.

More calls, more team members, more growth. The price stays the same.

What is included

AI Voice Receptionist

Answers every inbound call 24/7. Greets callers by your business name, qualifies them, books appointments, and transfers calls when needed.

$1,000-$1,500/mo to replicate with answering service at equivalent volume

AI Chat Widget

Handles website inquiries in real time, captures lead info, answers FAQs specific to your business, and routes conversations to your CRM.

$200-$400/mo for a comparable chat tool without AI qualification

AI CRM

Captures every call, chat, and text automatically. Scores leads, logs full conversation summaries, and keeps your pipeline current without manual entry.

$50-$200/user/month for traditional CRM, plus data entry your team will not do

AI Sales Manager

Routes every lead based on your configured rules. Runs nurture sequences for unbooked leads. Surfaces hot leads and stalled deals in real time.

$60,000-$100,000/year for a human doing this job part-time

AI Sales Assistant

Qualifies leads using BANT or Sandler frameworks in follow-up sequences. Warms prospects so your human closers only handle ready conversations.

$800-$2,000/mo for a dedicated SDR doing this manually

Reputation AI

Monitors reviews across platforms, generates response drafts, and flags negative reviews for your team to review before responding.

$300-$500/mo for a standalone reputation management platform

What the DIY stack costs

The closest competitors to the Full AI Suite are not single products. They are four or five separate platforms stitched together. A voice answering service. A chat tool. A CRM. A follow-up automation tool. A reputation management platform. At the usage level of a typical Tampa Bay service business, that stack runs $3,500 to $4,500 per month before annual contracts and implementation.

Most of those platforms require annual contracts. None of them talk to each other by default. And none of them are configured for your business. You get software. We give you a working system.

How to think about the ROI

One booked job per month from a lead that would have gone to voicemail covers a significant portion of the monthly cost. For an HVAC company or a law firm in Tampa Bay, a single after-hours call that gets answered and converts instead of disappearing can represent $500 to $5,000 in revenue.

The AI voice receptionist answers every call. The AI Sales Manager follows up with every lead. The AI Sales Assistant warms every prospect before your closer gets involved. None of those things require anyone on your team to be awake.

The question is not whether $5,000 per month is expensive. It is whether you are currently leaving more than $5,000 per month on the table because your phones are not answered, your follow-up is inconsistent, and your pipeline is running out of someone's memory.

For most businesses that call us, the answer is yes.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Full AI Suite cost?+
The Full AI Suite from Shark AI Solutions is $2,000 setup and $5,000 per month. There are no per-call charges, no per-user fees, and no annual contract requirement. You go month-to-month from day one.
What is included in the $5,000 per month?+
The Full AI Suite includes an AI Voice Receptionist (answers every inbound call 24/7), an AI Chat Widget (handles website inquiries), an AI CRM (captures and logs every interaction automatically), an AI Sales Manager (routes leads, runs follow-up sequences, and reports on pipeline health), an AI Sales Assistant (qualifies leads using BANT or Sandler frameworks), and Reputation AI (monitors and responds to reviews). Configuration, ongoing optimization, and support are also included. You are not buying software licenses. You are buying a working system.
Why is there a $2,000 setup fee?+
Setup covers the work of configuring each AI employee for your specific business. The voice receptionist is trained on your services, your service area, your pricing, and your qualifying questions. The CRM is integrated with your calendar and communication channels. The follow-up sequences are written and tested. The chat widget is designed and deployed to your site. This takes real time from real people. The setup fee covers that work so you start with a system that actually works, not a generic template you have to figure out yourself.
What does this cost compared to building it yourself?+
Building the same stack with separate vendors, at 100 calls per month and 200 chat interactions, typically runs $3,500 to $4,500 per month across four or more platforms. Most of those platforms require annual contracts. None of them are configured for your business out of the box, and none of them include the support and optimization that comes with the Full AI Suite. Year-one cost for the DIY approach is typically $50,000 to $60,000 when you include annual contracts and setup costs across vendors. Year-one for the Full AI Suite is $62,000, with month-to-month flexibility and full management included.
Is there a contract or can I cancel anytime?+
Month-to-month, no annual contract. We do not lock clients in because a system that is not delivering results should not be something you are stuck with. We also do not need a long contract to retain clients because the results are visible quickly. Most clients see the difference in call coverage and lead response within the first two weeks.
