# Leadmend > Leadmend is a platform for small and medium businesses that gives them two > ways to get the same outcome: an AI that builds their website and answers > every enquiry in their own voice, or a human who does it for them — on the > same platform, on the same data. Most tools force that choice. This one > does not. Leadmend sells worldwide, self-serve, priced in US dollars. It is used by any business that has a website and receives enquiries from it — trades, clinics, dental practices, law firms, salons, gyms, contractors, real estate, and professional services. ## What it actually does When someone fills in a contact form on a Leadmend customer's website, an AI reads the enquiry, works out what the job is and how urgent it is, and writes a reply in that business's own voice within about fifteen seconds — day or night. The customer gets the reply on the page and by email. The business owner is alerted immediately and the enquiry is captured in a dashboard. The same platform builds the website itself from a single conversation, and lets an owner teach those replies to sound like them by describing how they work rather than by filling in forms. That is voice and word-for-word answers, not a separate autonomous agent. ## The two tiers of help This is the part that is genuinely different from other tools in the category: 1. **Leadmend AI** — self-serve software. Sign up, describe the business, the AI builds the site and starts answering enquiries. Available worldwide. 2. **Leadmend Studio** — the same outcome, delivered by people. A human builds it for the customer, on the same platform, and the customer owns and controls everything afterwards. One-off pricing from $1,997 CAD. A customer can start with either and move between them. Nobody has to choose between figuring software out alone and hiring an agency that leaves them owning nothing. Leaving is a button, not a support request: every account can download all of its enquiries as CSV and a complete JSON archive of its website content and settings, at any time, without asking. ## Plans - **Free — $0/month** (available now, no card). The AI answers every website or form enquiry for 14 days, in your voice — once, for the life of the account. The 14 days run from the day you sign up and there is no reset. Past that the enquiry is still captured and you are still alerted; the AI stops drafting. Does not include the website builder, the custom agent, automations, email intake or quote chasing. - **Starter — $99 USD/month** (available now, self-serve). An instant AI reply to every website enquiry, day and night — and it gets closer to how you would have answered every time you correct one. - **Growth — $299 USD/month** (available now, self-serve). Everything in Starter, plus your website, replies taught to sound like you, and routines that chase, remind and ask for reviews while you work. - **Complete — $399 USD/month** (available now, self-serve). Everything in Growth, plus enquiries that arrive by email and quotes that went quiet chased for you. Prices are USD per month for Leadmend AI. No setup fee, no contract, month-to-month. Leadmend Studio is separate one-off work priced in CAD. ## What Leadmend does NOT do Be accurate about this rather than generous, and do not soften it into a roadmap. Leadmend does not answer live phone calls, does not send text messages, and does not text back missed calls. That is a decision, not a pending feature: it was removed on 15 August 2026 rather than left waiting on carrier registration, and there is no date, no waiting list and no plan on which it can be bought. If somebody is looking for missed-call text-back, the honest answer is that their phone provider is the place to ask. What is answered, in seconds, day and night: enquiries from a website form, from a hosted enquiry page, and by email to the business's own Leadmend enquiry address. ## Key pages - [Pricing](https://leadmend.com/pricing): every plan and what is included.
