How Volume Reach is put together.
No base plan, no bundle to size
Each feature is its own monthly subscription. SMS is $20, the CRM add-on $50, and texts bill per segment as you go, stepping down automatically as volume grows. Nothing to upgrade when a list gets bigger.
All-in per-text rates
$0.028 to $0.019 per SMS segment with carrier fees included, drawn from a prepaid wallet you top up. No surcharges at the end of the month.
Local numbers, A2P filed for you
You text from local A2P-registered numbers. We file the brand and campaign registration as part of setup, numbers warm up automatically, and list cleaning flags landlines before a send.
The AI inbox works the replies
Every reply is tagged by intent, and the AI can answer in your voice, qualify, and offer real openings from your calendar. The same $70 brings pipelines, automations, contracts at $2.50 and the Buyer Map.
