What is Ody?
Updated Tue Aug 04 2026 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)Web & iOS
Ody gives your business a shared phone number that your whole team — and your AI receptionist — can answer, so no call or text ever depends on one person's cell phone.
Everything lives in one workspace at app.ody.co:
- Shared inbox — every SMS, MMS, call, and voicemail lands in one conversation timeline the whole team can see and reply from. Voicemails arrive with transcripts.
- Calling — make and receive calls right in the browser or the iPhone app. Every plan includes calling and texting across the US & Canada, plus one phone number.
- AI receptionist — the AI agent answers calls when you can't, takes messages, and follows the answering rules you set. Pair it with your work schedule so it takes over after hours automatically.
- Contacts, tasks, and analytics — keep customer details, track follow-ups, and see call and message volume across your team.
- Work schedule — set your business hours once, and Ody automatically switches between ringing the team, the AI receptionist, and voicemail.
Where you can use it
- Web — app.ody.co on any desktop browser.
- Mobile web — the same address on your phone's browser gives you a mobile layout with Inbox, Calls, AI, Tasks, and More tabs.
- iOS app — calling, inbox, contacts, tasks, analytics, and settings on iPhone. A few admin tasks (buying numbers, porting, billing) stay on the web.
How pricing works
Every workspace picks a plan — Starter, Growth, or Enterprise — billed per user per month, and every plan starts with a free trial. See Choose a plan for what each tier includes.
