IncomingSomeone calls your number and the agent picks up. On a number bought from HANC, a line charge per minute is added, depending on the number's country and type, about 1 cent in Germany or Austria. With your own telephony you pay only the rate shown.

Your subscription is your credit. Nothing is kept back as a platform fee.

Good to know before you pay.

  • Credit renews every month

    Your plan credit is refilled at the start of each billing month. Plan credit you do not use does not carry over.

  • Top up any time

    Out of credit before the month ends? Top up by hand, or switch on automatic top-up so calls keep going.

  • More calls at once

    Each plan answers a set number of calls at the same time. Add one more for €8 a month, paid from your credit, and cancel it whenever you like.

  • Keep your number

    Forward your current line to your agent, or connect your own phone provider. Both work on every paid plan after a one-time identity check.

  • Billed in euros

    Plans are billed in euros through Stripe, and every price here is before VAT.

  • No minimum term

    Cancel a monthly plan any time. It keeps running to the end of the month you paid for.

AI voice agent vs a human receptionist.

What it costs to have your phone answered by an AI receptionist or by a person, worked out with your own numbers.

Call volume from the plan finder: 200 calls a month, 3 minutes each. Change it

Receptionist

€2,409 a month

40 hours of the week's 168, before employer costs

AI voice agent

€99 a month

Pro covers 600 minutes, at any hour

At these numbers the agent costs €2,310 less a month, and it answers the other 128 hours of the week too.

The starting wage is Germany's statutory minimum wage from 1 January 2026, €13.90 an hour. Employer costs, holidays and sick pay come on top, so a real hire costs more. Put in your own figure. Source: German Federal Government. This compares phone cover only. A receptionist does far more than answer calls; the agent takes the calls and hands over what needs a person.

Pricing questions, answered.

How does the credit model work?

Your whole subscription becomes call credit. Pro, for example, costs €99 a month and includes €100 of credit. You spend it at your plan's rate: €0.14 per phone minute or €0.12 per website widget minute on Pro. When the credit runs out, you top up or move to a bigger plan.

Are there any hidden fees or platform charges?

No. There is no platform fee, your entire subscription turns into credit. The only extra costs come from what you use on top: phone numbers bought from HANC (the price depends on the country, from about €6 a month), the line charge on calls through those numbers (it depends on the direction), and optional SMS. With your own telephony there is no line charge and no number fee from us.

Can I change my plan at any time?

Yes. An upgrade takes effect immediately: the new plan's full price is charged and its full credit is added, with no proration, and the unused credit of your previous plan carries over. A downgrade also takes effect immediately, with no refund for the current period.

Is there a minimum contract period?

No. Monthly plans have no minimum commitment, cancel anytime. Annual plans are billed upfront for 12 months with a 15% discount.

Do I get a refund if I cancel?

Monthly plans: no refund for the current billing period, but you keep access until the period ends. Annual plans: no refund; the plan stays active until the end of the paid year.

What happens when my credit runs out?

Your included credit is used first, then any top-up credit. On a paid plan, calls continue until your balance is about €30 below zero and then pause until you top up; your next top-up covers that amount first. Turn on auto top-up to keep calls running. On the Free plan, calls stop once the €3 credit is used.

Which payment methods do you accept?

We accept card payments (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), processed securely through Stripe.

Is Hanc.AI cheaper than hiring a receptionist?

Whether Hanc.AI costs less than a receptionist depends on how many calls you get, so compare with your own numbers on this page. Plans cost €49, €99 or €249 a month, and the whole fee is call credit: Pro covers about 714 phone minutes. A receptionist costs wages plus employer costs, works set hours and takes one call at a time. The agent answers at any hour, holds 4 calls at once on Pro and hands a caller to a person when needed.

In which currency am I charged?

All plans and top-ups are charged in euros (EUR). Where the site shows prices in another currency, that is for orientation only.

Can I use multiple languages on one account?

Yes. All 25 languages are available on every plan, including Free. Each agent can be configured for a specific language, and you can create unlimited agents (on paid plans) across different languages. No add-ons or per-language fees.

How much does an AI voice agent cost per minute?

A phone minute with a Hanc.AI voice agent costs €0.15 on Starter, €0.14 on Pro and €0.13 on Business. The monthly fee of €49, €99 or €249 turns into call credit in full, so you pay for the minutes you use and no platform fee on top. Enterprise rates are agreed for your volume.

How many calls can an AI voice agent take at the same time?

An AI voice agent answers several callers at once, so a second caller does not hear a busy tone. The number of simultaneous calls depends on the plan: 2 on Starter, 4 on Pro and 6 on Business. Enterprise capacity is agreed individually.
