A real phone line before your first hire.
WePickUp is an AI receptionist for startups, freelancers and solo founders. It answers your business number around the clock, books demos and calls, and logs every lead, so you can build the product instead of watching your phone.
Start free. 60 minutes free, no card needed.
Why founders miss calls
You do everything yourself
You are the sales team, support and the developer. The call arrives in the middle of a meeting or a deep piece of work, and it goes unanswered.
A personal number looks unprofessional
Putting your own mobile on the website invites calls at all hours. A separate business number that always answers looks more established.
Early leads are precious
When you have a handful of prospects, losing one to a missed call hurts. A fast answer with a booking link keeps it.
A receptionist is too much too soon
A part-time hire is a fixed monthly cost before you have the revenue. Pay as you go has no monthly fee, so you pay only for the calls.
Example call to Lumen Labs
- Assistant: Hi, you've reached Lumen Labs. I'm an AI assistant. How can I help?
- Caller: I saw your product online and I'd like a demo for my team.
- Assistant: Great. I can book a 30-minute demo. I have Wednesday at 3:00 or Thursday at 11:00. Which is better?
- Caller: Wednesday at 3.
- Assistant: Booked. Could I have your name, your company and an email for the invitation?
- Caller: Ana Ruiz, from Corvid Studio. It's ana at corvid dot example.
- Assistant: Thanks, Ana. You're booked for Wednesday at 3:00, and the invitation is on its way.
- Demo booked: Wednesday 3:00
- Lead: Ana Ruiz, Corvid Studio
- Logged to HubSpot, summary sent to Slack
What it does for a startup
A business number that always answers
Forward your current number, or buy a new one in the app for $1 a month. It picks up on the first ring, day and night.
Books demos and calls
Checks your calendar and books straight into Google Calendar or Outlook, and works with Cal.com and Calendly.
Logs every lead
Adds callers to HubSpot, Pipedrive, Salesforce or GoHighLevel, or to a Google Sheet, Airtable or Notion, so nothing depends on your memory.
Answers your common questions
Pricing, what the product does, who it is for and how to get started. You write the answers, and it takes a message for anything else.
Alerts you where you already work
Summaries to Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Telegram, WhatsApp, text message or email, and connections to thousands of apps through Zapier, Make and n8n.
Grows with you
Start with pay as you go and no monthly fee. Move to Small or Medium as the calls grow, and to Enterprise when you are large.
Questions from startups and solo founders
Can I try it without a card?
Yes. You get 60 free minutes and no card is needed to start.
Is there a contract?
No. Everything is billed monthly, and you can cancel in two steps from your account. A spend cap keeps the bill where you want it.
Can I keep my personal number off my website?
Yes. Buy a new business number in the app, or forward a number you already own, and put that on your site instead.
Can it answer in my customers' language?
Yes. It speaks 32 languages, including English, French, Spanish, German, Arabic and Russian. You choose the language for each agent.
Will callers know it is an AI?
Yes. It says so in its first sentence on every call, and it will tell anyone who asks. It never pretends to be a person.
How much does it cost for a startup?
Pay as you go is $0.20 a minute with no monthly fee. When calls grow, Small is $59 a month with 300 minutes included, and Medium is $249 a month with 1,500 minutes included. Each phone number is $1 a month.
