Switching from another provider?
$99 switcher credit
$99 off your first paid month with proof of an active competitor bill. First 15 shops.
Switching from an active AI receptionist or answering service? Send us proof of an active competitor bill and take $99 off your first paid month. First 15 shops. The credit is there because the pilot-outlasts-contract math below only works if double-paying never decides the question — this makes sure it doesn't.
Keep your current service until you're sure. A SavedRing pilot never requires cancelling your incumbent. You forward the calls your shop doesn't answer — busy, after-hours, overflow — to us, run both side by side, and compare the job cards on day 7. If we don't win, turn the forwarding off — in about a minute, with the disable code on the same guide page you used to turn it on — and nothing about your current setup has changed.
No vendor exports its configuration — not the AI receptionists, not the answering services. Your greeting, your fees, your service area, and your call-handling rules live on their screens, not in a file you can download. So switching here is a guided reconstruction, not an import: we draft your facts sheet from your website and Google profile before your setup call, and you confirm or correct it. You never re-type a fact a public source already holds.
Our targets for every switch: your total effort ≤ 30 minutes · switch complete ≤ 24 hours from intake start · zero facts re-typed.
The 3-step switch
Step 1 — Harvest your current setup (before you cancel anything). Different providers hold your data differently, and two of them delete it on a clock. Follow the checklist for your current provider below — in order. Recordings and transcripts first, configuration screenshots second, cancellation last.
Step 2 — Forward the calls you don't answer. Set missed-call forwarding on your line to your SavedRing number (guides for every carrier: forwarding library). Your incumbent keeps everything it already handles. Then we run the go-live gate together: a test call to your own number, unanswered on purpose — the switch isn't live until SavedRing answers it in your shop's name and the job card lands in your portal.
Step 3 — Compare on day 7. Your Day-7 comparison is your own two services on your own calls: job cards, recordings, and booked jobs from both. Decide with evidence. Your free pilot runs a full 14 days either way.
Still under contract with your current provider?
Pilot now anyway. A contract with an incumbent doesn't block a pilot: the pilot is free, runs on your own line as your full front desk — your incumbent never sees it, and requires no cancellation. Check your own notice and cancellation terms before your paid start date — terms vary, some are committed and non-cancelable, and only yours govern. When the contract ends, the switch is already built and graded.
Before you cancel: per-provider checklists
If you're leaving Smith.ai
- Download your recordings first — before you serve notice. Smith.ai recordings are downloadable one at a time from the dashboard player, and recordings are only kept for 90 days. Anything older than 90 days is already gone; everything inside the window goes when the account closes.
- Transcripts are viewable per call in the dashboard — save the ones that matter while you're in there.
- There is no configuration export. Screenshot your call-handling instructions, or copy them — we'll rebuild from those screens on your setup call.
If you're leaving Sameday
- Trigger the export the day you terminate. Sameday's terms (§22.5) give you 30 days after termination to export your customer data — including call recordings and transcripts — provided your account is not delinquent. After 30 days, they may delete it.
- Custom exports and migration help beyond the standard export are billable at their standard rates — factor that in before you ask them for anything custom.
- Port your number inside the same 30 days if Sameday holds it — numbers can be disconnected or reassigned after that window. Porting out doesn't cancel the contract: Sameday's published terms are a committed, non-cancelable term with acceleration of remaining fees (§§22.1–22.3). Read your order form before you sign the exit paperwork, not after.
- Call flows and prompts have no published export — screenshot your call-path builder before access ends.
If you're leaving Rosie
- There is no recording or transcript export. Recordings and transcripts live in Rosie's dashboard for the life of the subscription. Before you cancel, note the calls that matter — or check your CRM first: if Rosie was connected to it, call summaries may already be sitting there, and what she already wrote into your CRM stays after disconnect.
- Copy your Agent Knowledge Summary and FAQs from the Business Information tab — that's your configuration, and copy-paste is the only way it travels.
- If Rosie issued your number, you have 3 months after termination to port it back before it can be released or reassigned. Most Rosie customers forward their own number and never gave it up — if that's you, exit is just removing the forwarding rule.
- Cancellation is from the dashboard, effective at the end of your cycle.
If you're leaving Jobber Receptionist
- There is no Receptionist configuration export. Your greeting, escalation keywords, and knowledge fields are visible in the Manage screens — screenshot them; we'll rebuild from the screens.
- Conversation recordings and transcripts live in the Receptionist dashboard; no Receptionist-specific export is published. (Jobber's platform reports export separately — that covers your business records, not your receptionist.)
- Exit itself is simple: your number was always yours. Delete the carrier forwarding rule that points at your Jobber dedicated number, and point it at SavedRing instead.
Why shops switch (the short version)
- Against minute plans: no minute meter, no automatic plan upgrade, a human reviews early calls. Fair use is 150 conversations a month — and a conversation counts only when Donna actually speaks with a person. A callback attempt that reaches voicemail is an attempt, not a conversation, and never counts. Spam, robocalls, and wrong numbers are screened out and never count either.
- Against message-taking services: they take a message. We take the job — window offered from the shop's real availability, details captured, the request read back on the call for the shop to confirm, job card with recording and transcript in your portal.
Graded, not promised.
Donna is graded on recorded test calls against a published 21-point rubric — task completion, accuracy of promises, capture accuracy, interruption recovery, dead air, fallback & honesty, close quality.
Certified result: 19/21 — Grade A (Nov 7, 2026, the production engine configuration).
Live-answer result: 20/21 — Grade A (Nov 8, 2026, two consecutive passes; re-confirmed Nov 9, 2026).
What she still gets wrong, from those same graded records: dead air is her weakest dimension (1 of 3) — after a caller cuts off mid-word, her first reply can pause about 4.4 seconds while she makes sure they're done. In one live-answer pass, scheduling also scored 2 of 3.
The full scorecards — every dimension, every deduction — are published on the scorecard page.
Our exit pledge — published, on purpose
Leaving SavedRing is easy, and we'll put it in writing next to everyone else's terms above:
Your data is yours. Leave at any time — including after you cancel — and on request we will send you a complete export of your SavedRing record: your configuration, your job cards, your client list, and your call history, with transcripts and recording links. Free, within five business days of asking. Records are kept for 90 days, then deleted, unless a longer period is required by law or an active service agreement. No committed term, no acceleration clause, nothing hostage. Forwarding off is one code on your own phone, and your line goes back to exactly how it was.
