July 2026 Updates: Partner Program, Affiliate Program & Smarter AI

This month brings two new ways to make money with AI Receptionist: become a Partner and manage receptionists for your own clients, or join our brand-new Affiliate Program and earn recurring commission just for referring people. We've also upgraded the AI models behind every plan and doubled the outbound SMS allocation on Starter and Essential.

July 2026 AI Receptionist updates - build a business managing AI receptionists with the new Partner Program

Build a Business Managing AI Receptionists

With the new Partner Access capability, you can turn AI Receptionist into your own service business. If you're a consultant, agency, or freelancer, you can become a Partner and set up and manage AI receptionists for as many clients as you like - greeting, knowledge base, personality, voice, and phone settings - all from your own account, without ever touching their billing.

Partner managing a client's AI receptionist settings, knowledge base, and personality from their own account

Picture onboarding the local dental office, the law firm down the street, the plumber, the real-estate team: each one a client whose receptionist you set up and look after.

Every action you take is logged to your own identity, your clients can see exactly who has access, and billing stays entirely with them. We've also updated our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy with new sections covering delegated Partner Access - exactly what a partner can and can't do, and how clients stay in control of their account and data.

Introducing Our Affiliate Program: Earn 20% for Life

Don't want to manage anyone's account? Just refer them. Our new Affiliate Program pays 20% of every payment your referrals make, for as long as they stay - not a one-time bounty.

AI Receptionist Affiliate Program - earn 20% recurring commission on every referred business

Refer ten businesses on the Solopreneur plan and that's roughly $198 a month, every month. It's free to join, there are no quotas, and anyone who clicks your link is credited to you for 60 days.

Smarter, More Natural AI Across Every Plan

We've upgraded the AI models behind every plan, with an especially big leap for our Essential plan. Across the board you'll hear better voice quality and a more expressive, natural-sounding personality, and your receptionist is now noticeably sharper at using its tools - booking, looking things up, and handling multi-step requests. The result is smoother, more human conversations for your callers, with no changes needed on your end.

Double the Outbound SMS on Starter & Essential

We've doubled the monthly outbound SMS allocation on both the Starter and Essential plans, from 30 to 60 segments a month, at no extra cost. That means more room for your receptionist to text callers booking confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups.

Whether you want to build a business managing AI receptionists, earn recurring commission by referring people, or just have a partner run yours for you, we'd love to help - check out the Partner Program and Affiliate Program, or reach out and we'll get you started. As always, thank you for your continued support!
