Our AI handles inbound and outbound calls, schedules appointments, qualifies leads, and provides customer support with human-like conversation quality. **How much does SmartAlex cost?** SmartAlex starts at $99/month for the platform, plus pay-as-you-go usage (calls from $0.01/minute). Whether that is cheaper than staffing the same call volume with people depends on your volume and your hours, so work it out against your own numbers. **How quickly can I set up SmartAlex?** Most businesses are live within 60 seconds. Choose a voice, configure basic settings, connect a phone number, and start receiving AI-handled calls immediately. **What languages does SmartAlex support?** SmartAlex supports multiple languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and more. Language detection is automatic. **Is SmartAlex secure?** Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, tenants are isolated at the database level with row-level security, access is role-based, and administrative actions are audit logged. The platform is built on infrastructure that is itself SOC 2 Type II certified. SmartAlex is not currently SOC 2 certified in its own right, and a certification programme is in progress. Ask us for the current security posture document if you are evaluating for enterprise use. **Can SmartAlex integrate with my CRM?** Native OAuth integrations include Shopify, Slack, Stripe and Google Workspace, including Google Calendar. Other tools connect through the API and through Zapier. Ask us before you assume a specific tool is supported natively. ## Journal The SmartAlex Journal publishes founder notes, guides and playbooks on AI voice agents and how to put AI to work in a business.
