A Dialzara alternative for contractors
Dialzara is an AI receptionist with low-priced entry plans and integrations you wire up through Zapier or Make. Partner’s receptionist is built into the contractor app itself: the caller, the job and the estimate live in one place.
Partner: $99/mo for 300 minutes ($0.35/min after), 30-day trial · Dialzara: $29/mo for 60 min, $99 for 220, $199 for 500, $349 for 1,000; 7-day trial
Dialzara’s overage runs $0.48 to $0.35 a minute by plan. Both bill by the minute.
Choose Dialzara if…
- You want the cheapest way in — $29 a month for 60 minutes
- You already connect your calendar and CRM through Zapier or Make
- You want an AI text agent as well (a paid add-on)
Choose Partner’s receptionist if…
- More minutes for the money: $99/mo for 300 minutes, where Dialzara’s $99 plan has 220 ($0.45/min after)
- When the minutes run out it keeps answering at $0.35/min — Dialzara sends callers to voicemail unless you turn on auto-recharge
- It asks the questions your trade needs and follows your emergency rules (a leak, no heat in a freeze, a roof a storm left open), set per trade
- Every caller lands in Partner as a lead you can turn into an estimate, a scheduled job and an invoice — the same app, not an export
Set up for your trade: Roofers · Plumbers · HVAC contractors · Electricians · Remodelers
