The Capsule alternative
that fills itself in.
Capsule is a database your team feeds by hand. Frontdesk is the AI CRM that listens to every call, text, and email and enriches every contact automatically. Start for free, AI agents included.
Why teams switch from Capsule.
Capsule is a capable CRM. The catch is the same one every legacy CRM shares: it only knows what your team types into it. Reps become data-entry clerks, records go stale, and pipeline reflects gut feel instead of real signal.
Frontdesk flips that. The AI listens to every call, reads every text and email, and auto-populates intent, fit, urgency, and outcome. Your team stops doing data entry and starts closing.
On price, Capsule runs $0 free, then $18–$72/seat/mo and gates contacts, AI, and automation by tier. Frontdesk is free to start with the dialer, AI receptionist, SMS, and email agents included.
Everything a great Capsule Alternative does. At 1/10th the cost.
