FAQ
Straight answers, no fine print games.
The questions we get on almost every call. If yours isn't here, call us or book a free discovery call and ask us directly.
Getting started
What exactly does Artfik do?
We install and run an AI system that answers every new lead in seconds, follows up by text, email and voicemail, and books the appointment into your calendar.
It's done for you: we build it, operate it and tune it every month, end to end. You take the appointments.
How long until I'm live?
Most systems go live within about two weeks of the discovery call. The main variable is how quickly we get access to your calendar, phone setup and channels.
What do you need from me to get started?
About an hour of your time in total: a discovery call, access to your calendar and phone setup, and answers to a short intake. We handle the rest.
Do I have to switch away from my current CRM or tools?
Usually no. We can run lead response and follow-up alongside your current CRM and push data into it. On the discovery call we map what stays and what moves.
Which businesses is this built for?
Any business that lives on appointments and gets leads by phone, form or DM: kitchen and bath remodelers, roofers, home services and contractors, real estate, salons, spas and clinics, coaches and consultants, and local service businesses.
Pricing & billing
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $97/month (Essentials), $297/month (Professional) and $497/month (Premium), all in US dollars, each with a 5-day free trial. See what's in each plan.
If you'd rather have the whole system built and run for you, we scope that on the free discovery call.
Is there a setup fee or a contract?
Plans start with a 5-day free trial and run month to month, with no long-term contract. Cancel anytime.
What's not included in the price?
Ad spend, if you run ads, is paid directly to the ad platforms. Very high text or call volume beyond fair use is billed at carrier cost, no markup, with full visibility before anything changes.
Can I cancel or change my plan?
Yes. Plans are month to month. Upgrade, downgrade or cancel anytime, and your contacts and conversation history export with you.
The AI & your customers
Will the AI sound robotic to my customers?
You approve every script before launch. The AI writes like your best receptionist: short, polite and specific. A human stays in the loop, and you can jump into any conversation at any moment.
What happens if the AI can't answer something?
It hands the conversation to you. You see every thread in one inbox and can step in whenever you want. The AI handles the routine; you handle the judgment calls.
Is it available 24/7, and on which channels?
Yes, around the clock. It covers missed calls with instant text-back, website and ad forms, webchat, and Facebook, Instagram and Google messages, all in one shared inbox.
Is my customers' data safe?
Contact and conversation data lives in our secure customer platform, used only to serve you. We don't sell it. Every form requires explicit consent, and your data exports with you if you leave. Read our privacy policy.
Results, support & the platform
What exactly am I paying for?
A done-for-you service, not another app to learn. We build your entire lead system, write the AI in your voice, connect your channels, then run and improve it for you every month.
You're paying for the system and the team that operates it, so you get the results without touching the wiring or hiring for it.
What results can I realistically expect?
We don't promise a number. What the research is clear on is that speed wins: independent studies show you're far more likely to qualify a lead when you answer in minutes instead of hours.
The system makes fast, consistent follow-up automatic. Run the 60-second audit for a directional estimate on your own numbers.
Who supports me after launch?
A small senior team, not a ticket queue. The people who built your system are the ones who monitor it, tune it monthly and answer when you reach out. Support level scales with your plan.
What if it isn't working for me?
You're month to month, so you can leave anytime, and your contacts and conversations come with you. We'd rather earn the next month than lock you into it.
