The bottom line

Moneypenny is a well-known virtual PA service built for general office businesses. It uses human receptionists who operate during business hours, with per-minute billing that escalates fast - 250 minutes costs $555/month, and 500 minutes runs $985/month.

It books directly into your calendar, detects emergencies, and costs a fraction of the price. SMS confirmations are coming soon. No humans involved means it never sleeps.
