In an industry where hidden fees and opaque pricing structures have become the norm, Norango AI is breaking the mould with something remarkably simple yet revolutionary: complete pricing transparency. Our interactive cost calculator is the first of its kind in the UK call handling market, providing businesses with accurate, real-time cost estimates and critical performance indicators before they commit to a single penny.
The Problem with Traditional Call Handling Pricing
If you've ever tried to budget for a call answering service, you'll know the frustration. Most providers offer tiered packages with vague descriptions like "up to X calls" or "standard usage," leaving you to guess whether you'll face unexpected overage charges at the end of the month. The reality is that businesses operate in dynamic environments where call volumes fluctuate, and a one-size-fits-all package rarely fits anyone properly.
Traditional providers typically require you to:
•Contact sales for a quote
•Commit to a plan without knowing your actual costs
•Discover hidden charges only after your first invoice
•Struggle to compare different service levels
•Guess which plan suits your business best
This lack of transparency doesn't just frustrate customers—it actively prevents businesses from making informed decisions about a service that directly impacts their customer experience and bottom line.
Introducing the Norango AI Cost Calculator: Transparency Meets Innovation
Norango AI has developed the UK's first truly transparent cost calculator for hybrid AI and live agent call handling services. This isn't just a marketing tool—it's a commitment to honest, upfront pricing that empowers businesses to make data-driven decisions.
Real-Time Cost Estimation
Our calculator provides instant, accurate cost projections based on your specific business needs. Simply adjust three key parameters:
Monthly Call Volume - How many calls do you receive? Whether you're a start-up handling 20 calls per month or an established business managing 500+, the calculator adapts to your reality.
Average Call Duration - Not all calls are created equal. A quick enquiry takes 2 minutes; a detailed consultation might take 10. Our calculator accounts for this, giving you precise minute-by-minute cost breakdowns.
AI vs Live Agent Split - Here's where Norango's hybrid approach truly shines. You decide what percentage of calls should be handled by AI versus live agents. Want to start conservatively with 20% AI and 80% live agents? Or go bold with 70% AI? The choice is yours, and you can see exactly how it affects your costs in real time.
The "What-If" Capability: Plan for Growth, Not Surprises
One of the most powerful features of our cost calculator is its "what-if" scenario planning capability. Business isn't static, and your call handling costs shouldn't be a mystery as you grow.
Scenario Planning Made Simple:
Imagine you're launching a new marketing campaign next quarter. You expect call volumes to increase by 40%. With traditional providers, you'd be flying blind, hoping your current plan can handle the surge or bracing for shock invoices.
With Norango's calculator, you simply adjust the call volume slider and instantly see:
•Your new monthly cost
•Cost per call at the higher volume
•Cost per minute efficiency
•Potential savings compared to competitors
•Which plan tier offers the best value at that volume
Seasonal Fluctuations? No problem. Model your busy season costs versus quiet periods. See exactly when it makes sense to adjust your AI/live agent ratio.
Testing Different Service Models? Experiment with different AI adoption rates. What if you handled 80% of calls with AI during evenings and weekends, but kept 100% live agents during business hours? The calculator helps you model these strategies before implementing them.
This "what-if" capability transforms pricing from a static commitment into a dynamic planning tool. You're not just buying a service—you're gaining strategic insight into how your customer communication costs scale with your business.
Key Performance Indicators: Beyond Just the Price Tag
Norango AI is the only UK call handling provider to offer integrated KPIs directly within the cost calculator. We believe that understanding your costs means understanding the value you're receiving.
Cost per Minute
This metric reveals your true efficiency. As you adjust your AI/live agent mix, you'll see this number change in real time. It's a powerful way to understand how hybrid AI service delivers better value than traditional all-live-agent models.
A typical Moneypenny customer might pay £2.10 per minute. With Norango's hybrid approach, you might achieve £0.85 per minute—a 60% reduction whilst maintaining excellent service quality.
Cost per Call
Different from cost per minute, this KPI is crucial for businesses that receive many short calls. If your average call is 2 minutes, knowing your cost per call helps you calculate customer acquisition costs and lifetime value more accurately.
This transparency allows you to answer critical business questions: "Can we afford to offer free phone support?" or "Should we promote our phone number more prominently in marketing materials?"
Return on Investment (ROI)
Our calculator automatically compares your Norango costs against traditional providers like Moneypenny, showing you the exact percentage you're saving. This isn't marketing fluff—it's based on publicly available competitor pricing and your specific usage patterns.
Seeing "You're saving 42% compared to Moneypenny" isn't just satisfying—it's actionable intelligence you can take to stakeholders, include in budget reports, and use to justify investment in better customer service infrastructure.
Why Norango AI is the Only UK Provider Offering This Level of Transparency
We've built our entire business model around a simple principle: trust through transparency. Whilst competitors guard their pricing behind sales calls and complex contracts, we've invested in technology that puts pricing power directly in your hands.
Our calculator is possible because:
Hybrid AI Technology - By combining AI and live agents, we can offer flexible pricing that adapts to your needs rather than forcing you into rigid tiers.

Customer-First Philosophy - We believe informed customers make better partners. When you understand exactly what you're paying for and why, you can optimise your service usage and get maximum value.
Real-World Impact: How Businesses Use the Calculator
Start-ups use the calculator to model their customer service costs as they scale from 50 to 500 calls per month, ensuring they have accurate financial projections for investors.
Growing businesses experiment with different AI adoption rates to find the sweet spot between cost savings and service quality, then adjust in real-time as they learn what works.
Seasonal businesses plan for peak periods by modelling high-volume months, ensuring they have budget allocated and aren't caught off-guard by usage spikes.
Finance teams use the KPIs to build detailed cost-per-customer models, helping them understand the true cost of customer acquisition and support.
