How Marketing Agencies Can Resell an AI Receptionist to Local Clients
By Trivant Editorial Team · Published September 28, 2026
If your agency generates calls for local businesses, you already own the hardest part of the sale: the client's phone is ringing because of your work. An AI receptionist makes sure those calls get answered, and it turns into a recurring service you can bill on top of your retainer. This guide covers the economics, the pricing options, and the setup, including where Trivant's limits are.
Reselling and white label
White-label platforms let you rebrand the software under your own name, domain, and logo, and usually charge a monthly platform fee on top of per-client costs. Trivant works differently: you manage many client businesses from one login and pay per business, with no platform fee, and callers hear your client's own business name. If you'd like white label, contact us at support@trivant.ai.
The unit economics
Each client business is its own subscription: Starter is $79 a month, Growth is $149, and Pro is $299. You choose what your client pays. The arithmetic is simple: your monthly margin per client is what you charge minus your plan cost.
- ✓Sell Starter at $199 a month: $120 margin per client. Ten clients is $1,200 a month; 25 clients is $3,000.
- ✓Sell Growth at $299 a month: $150 margin per client. Ten clients is $1,500 a month; 25 clients is $3,750.
- ✓Watch overage: minutes beyond a plan's allowance are billed per minute, so match each client to a plan that fits their call volume.
How to price it
- ✓Flat per-client monthly fee: the simplest to sell, and easy to forecast.
- ✓Tiered by call volume: map your tiers to Trivant's plans so your pricing tracks your costs.
- ✓Bundled into a lead-generation package: 'more calls plus every call answered' as one offer.
- ✓A setup fee on your side for onboarding and training the AI on the client's services.
Onboarding a client in Trivant
- 1Add the client business to your account and pick a plan. Each new business starts with its own 7-day free trial.
- 2Set the client's services, hours, service area, questions, and escalation rules, using website discovery to pre-fill what it can.
- 3Decide how appointments are handled: Trivant's built-in calendar, the client's own booking link, or a callback for their team.
- 4Forward the client's existing number to their Trivant number for missed and after-hours calls.
- 5Place a real test call, then go live and invite the client's team to see their own calls if they want access.
What to get right before you resell
- ✓Accuracy: the AI only knows what each client approves, so review their services, hours, and pricing rules together.
- ✓Consent: calls are recorded and texts require consent, and each business is responsible for the rules where it operates. Confirm requirements with each client.
- ✓Expectations: the AI is the fallback when a person can't answer, not a replacement for the client's team.
- ✓Review: check call summaries with each client regularly and adjust the AI's rules from what you hear.
Where Trivant has limits
There's no API or Zapier access yet. Each business is independent, and billing your own clients happens outside Trivant. A volume discount may be available once you manage 10 or more businesses, and if you'd like white label, contact us at support@trivant.ai.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a special agency plan?
No. Every client business is on a standard plan (Starter, Growth, or Pro), and there's no platform fee or minimum number of clients. A volume discount may be available once you manage 10 or more businesses; contact support@trivant.ai.
Who is billed?
Trivant bills the account holder for each business's subscription, using one shared payment method or a different card per client. You invoice your own clients separately.
Can my clients see their own calls?
Yes. You can invite a client's staff into just their business as an owner or an agent, and they see only that business's calls and summaries.
What if a client outgrows their plan?
Move that business to a higher plan, or watch for overage minutes if it's briefly over. Each business's usage is visible in one billing overview.
