The honest part

What Podium AI Employee does better than we do.

Reviews, payments, webchat and messaging in one place. If what you want is a whole front office, Podium is a platform and we are not.

If that is the thing that decides it for you, buy theirs. We would rather you did than have you leave us in two months.

The only comparison that counts is yours.

We read your website and build the agent from it, and you hear it answer before anything is forwarded. That takes about a minute and it settles this page faster than the page does.
