- you want WhatsApp Business API and Messenger booking inside one low-touch tool, today, at one price
- you already book through Calendly or GoHighLevel and want the AI to drop bookings straight in

Choose LeadSignal if
- you have human setters and want every conversation scored and queued for them, not only answered by AI
- you want to choose per lead between AI drafting for a human to approve (Copilot) and AI running the thread (Autopilot), with a human able to take over at any time
- you want each booking attributed back to the post or ad that produced it, and revenue per source
- you would rather pay for new leads a month than for AI messages, with onboarding done for you

Questions people ask
Is LeadSignal cheaper than SetSmart?
They are priced differently. SetSmart charges $99 a month for 1,000 AI messages and meters usage above that. LeadSignal charges by new leads a month per plan, with unlimited AI messages inside that volume, and its live prices are on this page from the same feed as the pricing table. Which is cheaper depends on how many messages each of your conversations takes.
Does LeadSignal do WhatsApp like SetSmart?
Yes, as a paid add-on with your own dedicated number, rather than included in the base plan. Instagram and Facebook are included on every LeadSignal plan.
Can I keep my human setters with LeadSignal?
That is what it is built for. Every DM is scored 0 to 100 with a tier and a next action, and Signal Priority queues the hottest conversations for your team. The AI can draft (Copilot) or run the thread (Autopilot), and a human can take over any conversation.
