Rosie AI alternative: an AI receptionist for calls, WhatsApp and 50+ languages

Rosie describes itself as the easiest AI answering service for small business: it answers phone calls around the clock, takes messages, books appointments into a calendar and transfers calls to the team of the owner. It speaks English and Spanish. The facts about Rosie on this page come from its own site and help centre, read on 2 October 2026.

Solwees is an AI receptionist and booking software for service businesses. It answers phone calls, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, website chat and email around the clock, books appointments and reservations into the booking system or CRM the business already uses, sends reminders, and hands the conversation to a person when it should.

Which one to choose

Choose Solwees if

  • Your business is outside the United States, or your clients speak languages other than English and Spanish.
  • Clients write to you in WhatsApp or Telegram, which the Rosie pricing and help pages do not list.
  • Bookings must go into salon or restaurant software, not only into a calendar.

Choose Rosie AI if

  • You are a small business in the United States and the phone is your main channel.
  • You want phone answering from $49 a month with 250 minutes.
  • You use Jobber or Housecall Pro and want every call logged there.

What to compare before you choose

AI receptionists look alike in a demo. They differ in three things that decide the result for a business that works by appointment.

Which channels the assistant answers

List where your clients reach you: phone, WhatsApp, Instagram, website chat. A product that answers only calls leaves the messages to your staff. Solwees answers calls and chats with one assistant and keeps them in one inbox.

Where the booking ends up

Ask whether the booking is written into the booking system you use, or reaches staff as a message to enter by hand. Check that your system is named in the vendor’s list of integrations.

What the bill depends on

Per minute, per call, per location or a monthly plan: count the cost of your busiest month. Solwees charges per location per month; phone minutes come with the Studio plan or in packs that do not expire.

What Solwees does

One assistant on calls and in chats

Solwees answers phone calls, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, website chat and email around the clock, in 50+ languages. Every conversation lands in one inbox that the team opens on the web or in the mobile app.

  • Answers from the knowledge base you fill in: prices, services, terms
  • Hands the conversation to a person when the client asks for one or your rules require it
  • Phone answering comes with the Studio plan, or with a pack of minutes on Solo

Bookings go into the system you already use

The assistant books appointments and reservations into your booking system and sends reminders. Solwees works on top of the system you have and does not replace it. A business without a supported system can take bookings into the calendar of Solwees itself.

  • Salons: Altegio, Booksy, Fresha, Treatwell, Bokadirekt, Bookio, Wix Bookings
  • Clinics: Altegio, Doctra, Tooki. Restaurants: SevenRooms, OpenTable, CoverManager and other systems through Mozrest
  • Chats are written into Bitrix24; other systems are connected on request

Where Rosie AI is the better choice

Rosie is the better choice for a small business in the United States that mainly needs its phone answered. $49 a month covers 250 minutes of calls with message taking, and $149 adds booking into Google Calendar, Calendly, Acuity or Appointlet and call transfers. Website chat and replies in Instagram and Messenger are included, and there is no per-minute overage: going over the limit moves you to the next plan, and above 2,000 minutes Rosie quotes a custom plan.

Where Solwees is the better choice

Solwees is the better choice for a business outside the United States, for clients who speak other languages, and for bookings that must land in salon or restaurant software. The assistant answers WhatsApp, Telegram and email as well as calls, Instagram and Messenger, speaks 50+ languages, and works with Altegio, Booksy, Fresha, SevenRooms, OpenTable and CoverManager.

Moving from Rosie AI to Solwees

  1. Start the free trial

    7 days, no card. The whole platform is open, with up to 100 active clients and 20 call minutes.

  2. Connect your booking system

    Choose it in the list of integrations. From then on the assistant books into the system your team already works in.

  3. Connect the channels

    WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, website chat and email, plus a phone number if the assistant should answer calls. Fill the knowledge base with your services, prices and rules.

  4. Test on real conversations, then switch

    Try the assistant on one channel or one location first. Move the rest when you are satisfied, and cancel what you no longer need.
