LimeCall vs Goodcall
Both answer your phone 24/7 with AI. Goodcall is built around a single local business and its Google listing; LimeCall is built around capturing leads wherever they arrive, including your website.
LimeCall
$59/mo
Flat, whatever the headcount. Website capture included.
Goodcall
$79/mo per agent
100 unique callers, unlimited minutes.
No credit card · Answering calls in about 5 minutes · Cancel anytime
The short version
Goodcall is the better buy for one shop with one phone line. The Google Business Profile integration is genuinely useful, and unlimited minutes means long calls cost nothing extra.
LimeCall is the better buy once there is more than one of anything — more than one location, more than one line, or leads arriving through a website as well as a phone. Per-agent pricing multiplies; a flat plan does not.

Read this before you quote the number. Goodcall counts unique callers and includes unlimited minutes, so long calls cost it nothing — a real advantage over every minute-metered service here, LimeCall included. Its price is per agent, so a second location or team multiplies it. At low volume with long calls Goodcall is the cheaper buy and the table says so.

What Each One Actually Costs

Where Goodcall Is Strong, and Where It Stops
If you are comparing these two you have probably already tried one of them. Here is the honest split.
What Goodcall does well
- Unlimited minutes — long calls do not punish you, unlike minute-metered services
- Google Business Profile integration is genuinely useful for local search businesses
- Logic flows give real control over how calls branch
Where LimeCall covers what it doesn’t
- Priced per agent, so multiple locations or teams multiply the bill
- Counts unique callers, so a repeat customer ringing three times still eats your allowance the first time
- Inbound only — no outbound speed-to-lead callbacks to website enquiries
- No website callback widget and no free in-browser calling
What “Per Agent” Costs as You Grow
One agent, one price. The arithmetic changes the moment you add a second line, location or department.

LimeCall Starter
Goodcall Starter at its published $79/mo per agent, before the 15% annual discount. LimeCall Starter is a flat plan — you may still need a higher tier for talk-time volume or lead routing, so compare against your own call minutes rather than agent count alone.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Goodcall cheaper than LimeCall? ▾
Not at the entry point, and the gap grows if you have more than one line. Goodcall's Starter plan is $79/mo per agent for 100 unique callers; LimeCall's Starter is $59/mo. The phrase to watch is "per agent" — if you run two locations or want a second agent handling a different line, Goodcall's bill doubles while LimeCall's plan does not. Goodcall does include unlimited minutes, which genuinely helps if your calls run long. Prices verified 15 August 2026.
What does “100 unique callers” actually mean? ▾
Goodcall counts distinct people rather than calls or minutes, and charges $0.50 for each unique caller beyond your plan. It is a fair model — a customer ringing three times about the same job only counts once — but it caps reach rather than usage. If you are a local business with a hundred or so distinct customers a month it is generous. If you run marketing that puts new names in front of your phone, the unique-caller count is the thing that will push you up a tier.
Does Goodcall work on my website? ▾
Goodcall answers your phone line. It does not put a callback widget on your site, does not let visitors call you free from the browser, and does not ring back someone who filled in a form. LimeCall does all three alongside the AI answering. If your enquiries arrive mostly by phone, that difference may not matter. If they arrive through a website, it is the whole point.
When is Goodcall the better choice? ▾
When you are a single-location local service business whose customers find you through Google. Goodcall integrates with Google Business Profile so the agent knows your hours, location and services without you configuring it twice, and unlimited minutes means a chatty customer costs nothing extra. If that describes you and you have no website lead-capture problem, Goodcall is a clean fit and the $20 difference is not worth switching over.
Can LimeCall handle branching call logic like Goodcall’s logic flows? ▾
Yes. LimeCall routes on intent read from the conversation rather than menu presses — sales to one team, support to another, emergencies escalated — and takes a detailed message when nobody is free. Goodcall exposes this as numbered logic flows, with one on the $79 tier and three on the $129 tier. The models differ in how you configure them rather than what they can do, so the practical question is whether you would rather draw the flow yourself or describe the outcome you want.
