What Posh's base price does NOT include

Items to confirm directly with Posh, based on the reported model:

• Every handled minute bills: Posh's live FAQ defines receptionist minutes as all time its receptionists spend on the phone with your callers or completing an activity for your account, and publishes no spam-call exclusion. Ask Posh directly how spam, sales-call, and wrong-number minutes bill, and get it in writing.
• Per-minute rates on plan tiers: published at $1.90 to $2.30 per minute depending on tier.
• No money-back guarantee published, though the 7-day/250-minute free trial is real risk reduction. Posh's FAQ answers "Are there any other fees?" with "Nope."
• Integration depth: Posh's own site markets integrations with leading CRMs; a 2026 Lawyerist review described its integrations as limited relative to competitors. If your dispatch flow depends on specific software, confirm support first.

Real monthly math for a contractor shop

Worked example: a 4-truck plumbing shop fielding 130 calls a month at an average 3.5 minutes per call, which is 455 minutes, priced on the published 1/1/26 rates.

• The Elegant tier ($215 for 100 minutes): 355 overage minutes at $2.15 = $763.25. Total approximately $978 per month.
• The better fit at this volume is Prestigious ($700 for 350 minutes): 105 overage minutes at $2.00 = $210. Total approximately $910 per month.
• On the entry pay-per-use Chic plan ($65 base, $2.30/min): 455 minutes = $1,046.50 metered. Total approximately $1,112.

The shape is the standard per-minute squeeze: contractor emergency intake runs long, and long calls are what per-minute billing charges most for. Posh's US-based receptionists earn strong marks for warmth on professional-services calls; the model is just priced for low-volume, high-value phones.

How much does Posh cost per month?

Posh cost per month for a typical contractor shop, on the published 1/1/26 rates: roughly $600 to $1,050 per month at 80 to 150 calls with realistic contractor call lengths, assuming the best-fit tier. Very low-volume businesses can hold the entry plan near $65 to $200 per month. These are computed from the live posh.com pricing page as retrieved 2026-08-15; confirm your tier fit before committing.

Contractor-AI alternatives at published pricing

OnCrew publishes every price, bills per call rather than per minute, answers 24/7 in your business name with configured contractor intake, and sends urgent-call handoffs with full transcripts to your on-call team. 14-day free trial, no setup fee, cancel anytime.

When Posh is still the right choice

An honest read of where Posh wins:

• Law firms and professional-services SMBs that want a warm, US-based human voice and have modest call volume.
• Businesses that value the app experience: Posh's mobile app for toggling call handling gets consistent praise.
• Low-volume phones where the ~$65 entry point plus metered minutes beats committing to a larger plan.

For contractor call mixes with after-hours emergencies and seasonal spikes, per-minute economics, plus the absence of any published spam-call exclusion, work against you.

Frequently asked questions

Is Posh cheaper than Ruby Receptionists?

At entry level, yes on paper: Posh's $65 entry plan is lower than Ruby's $250 entry plan, but Posh includes zero minutes at that price while Ruby includes 50. At contractor-typical volume, Posh commonly lands between roughly $600 and $1,050 per month all-in on its published tiers, with Ruby's published plans in a similar or higher band. See the Ruby Receptionist pricing breakdown for the Ruby math.

Does Posh bill per minute?

Yes, per Posh's published pricing: plan bases plus metered minutes at $1.90 to $2.30 per minute depending on tier. Long calls cost proportionally more.

Does Posh charge for spam calls?

Posh's live pricing FAQ defines billed receptionist minutes as all time spent on the phone with your callers or completing an activity for your account, and publishes no spam-call exclusion (rechecked 2026-08-15). Ask Posh directly how spam, sales calls, and wrong numbers bill, and get the answer in writing.

Does Posh have a free trial?

Yes: 7 days or 250 receptionist minutes, whichever comes first, per Posh's own pricing FAQ. No money-back guarantee is published beyond the trial.

What is the cheapest Posh alternative for contractors?

For contractor-typical 80 to 150 calls per month, per-call contractor AI is the cheapest published category: OnCrew runs $49 to $349 per month with $0.99 per-call overage and a 14-day trial.

How is OnCrew different from Posh for contractors?

OnCrew is contractor-specific AI: trade-aware intake for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and roofing, configured urgent-call handoffs with the full transcript, 24/7 coverage, and per-call pricing published at $49/$149/$349 per month with $0.99 per-call overage. Posh is primarily a human receptionist service, strongest for professional services and billed per minute; its FAQ now also markets a bundled "Posh AI" receptionist at no extra cost.

Where to start

If you are evaluating Posh pricing for a contractor shop:

1. Pull your last 90 days of call records: call count, timing, average length, percent after-hours.
2. Confirm Posh's current plan sizes, per-minute rates, and spam-minute policy against the live pricing page or in writing from sales.
3. Apply a per-call alternative to the same mix. For OnCrew that is $49/$149/$349 per month with $0.99 per-call overage.
4. Use both trials (Posh's 7 days, OnCrew's 14) on the same week of real calls and compare transcripts side by side.

For OnCrew specifically: start at oncrew.ai/lp/vs/posh-virtual, or call the live AI demo line at (818) 578-4783.
