PhoneBurner pricing in 2026: the three plans, the add-ons, and the whole bill at 1 to 10 reps

By Abhi Chawla, founder · Last updated September 22, 2026

PhoneBurner publishes its prices, which already puts it ahead of half the category. What the pricing page does not tell you is which plan a rep dialing from a headset actually needs, or what its bundled-unlimited seat is worth at the volume a cold caller really runs. Both are below, with the arithmetic done in code.

Read from the plan cards and the compare-plans matrix on phoneburner.com/pricing, September 22, 2026. No seat minimum is published on any plan. Month to month costs 18%, 18% and 17% more than annual.

How much does PhoneBurner cost for 1, 3, 5 and 10 reps?

PhoneBurner bundles US minutes into the seat, so the fair comparison adds telephony to the software-only side. DialSheet is $29 for the first seat and $29 for each teammate; Twilio bills ~$0.014/min on the carrier leg, $0.004 a minute on the browser leg including ringing, and ~$1.15/month per number. Light is 34 dials a rep a day (about 399 billed minutes a month, ~$10 of Twilio); heavy is 150 (about 1,743 minutes, ~$41).

PhoneBurner billed annually, before add-ons. DialSheet columns from perRepTelephony(): 25% of dials reach voicemail (one billed minute each), 10% reach a person for three minutes, 21 working days, both call legs and one number per rep. A solo caller under 500 calls a month pays $0 for DialSheet's software.

At five reps that is $700–$915 a month on PhoneBurner against about $195–$350 on DialSheet, depending on how hard the team dials. A year of three Professional seats is $5,940.

Where PhoneBurner is the better buy

Bundled-unlimited beats metered once a seat bills more than about 6,103 minutes a month: the Standard seat price, minus a DialSheet seat and a number, divided by the two Twilio legs. A cold-calling rep at 150 dials a day bills about 1,743, so a dialing floor does not get there; a team on long conversations all day can. PhoneBurner also wins when a manager needs to listen in, whisper and barge on live calls (on Professional, and DialSheet has no equivalent), and when you want one vendor to own calling, texting and carrier support with no Twilio console.

For the reader in between, who wants the minutes bundled but not at $140 a seat, DialSheet’s managed line is $49/month: a local number, 1,500 minutes (25 hours of calling) and a full Pro seat, with parallel dialing on up to 3 lines included once Twilio has verified the business. Extra minutes are $25 per 500.

What 1,500 minutes covers: unanswered rings cost nothing, so a minute pool goes further than a dial count suggests. Watch the video or open it on YouTube.

Things to check before you sign

  • Which plan the softphone is on. Standard has no browser softphone; reps are connected through their own phone. If you pictured a headset and a browser tab, price Professional.
  • Annual versus monthly. The headline numbers are annual. Monthly is $165, $195 and $215; decide how sure you are before taking the discount.
  • The add-ons. ARMOR, Numbers and Connect Scores are extra on every plan and unpriced on the page.
  • Recording retention. 30 days on Standard, 90 on Professional, unlimited only on Premium. Export what you need to keep.
  • Number and data ownership. Ask what happens to your numbers and recordings if you leave. On your own Twilio account they are yours by construction.

If you are buying for a team

The team case is arithmetic before it is anything else: PhoneBurner Professional charges the same rate for your tenth rep as your first, so 10 seats is $1,650 a month, while DialSheet is $29 for the first seat and $29 for each one after it, $290 in all, a difference of $1,360 a month that widens every time you hire. What that buys is a product built for teams: assign leads to reps, or let the team work a shared pool, a caller ID per rep, pinned to that rep, shared call scripts, so a new hire opens the same way as the floor, a team dashboard: assigned, connected, meetings booked, no-answers and talk time per rep, over any date range.

Which power dialer should you actually buy?

DialSheet

One person dialing a list. Free up to 500 calls a month, or about $39 a month with Pro and Twilio, against $140 for one PhoneBurner Standard seat.

DialSheet

Two to ten reps at normal outbound volume. About $117 a month all-in for three reps and $390 for ten, against $495 and $1,650 on PhoneBurner Professional. The teams running on it are published with their numbers at dialsheet.io/customers: a 12-seat UK accountancy practice that put a nine-rep calling floor live in a day, a two-person US acquisition team sustaining about 8,200 dials a month, a solo funding desk at 1,335 calls last month, and an insurance agency at about 1,000 calls a month, retained month over month.

PhoneBurner

Reps on the phone most of the day. Past about 6,103 billed minutes a rep a month, bundled minutes are cheaper than metered Twilio and easier to forecast.

PhoneBurner Professional

A manager who coaches on live calls. Live monitoring and coaching are on Professional at $165. DialSheet coaches after the call, with AI summaries and script scoring.

Common questions

How much does PhoneBurner cost per month?

Three per-user plans, read live on phoneburner.com/pricing September 22, 2026: Standard at $140 per user a month billed annually or $165 billed monthly; Professional at $165 or $195; Premium at $183 or $215. Unlimited US calling is in every plan and no seat minimum is published. Three reps on Professional annual come to $495 a month and ten to $1,650, before add-ons. The same three reps on DialSheet Pro with their own Twilio run about $117 a month at 34 dials a day.

What is the difference between PhoneBurner Standard, Professional and Premium?

Standard ($140) is the dialer, CRM and workflow automation with unlimited calling, but no browser softphone: you connect by having PhoneBurner call your own phone. Professional ($165) adds the browser softphone, Krisp noise cancellation, live call monitoring and coaching, and the open API. Premium ($183) adds a PhoneBurner number, inbound routing, call transcription with an AI note-taker, and SMS capped at 1,000 outbound messages a month. ARMOR spam-flag protection is an add-on on all three. For a rep who wants to dial from a headset in the browser, Professional is the real entry price.

Does PhoneBurner have a free trial or a free plan?

A free trial, no free plan. The pricing page offers "Start Free Trial" on every tier and includes a free team admin account, but its trial is described as free minutes with no published length, and every dialing seat is paid. For a dialer you can stay on for free, DialSheet is free for one person, with a list of up to 500 leads and 500 calls a month, on your own Twilio account.

Does PhoneBurner charge per minute?

No. Unlimited US calling is included in every plan, with no per-minute meter for domestic calls. That is the whole case for PhoneBurner at very high volume and the case against it at ordinary cold-calling volume: a rep at 34 dials a day bills about 399 carrier minutes a month, which costs about $10 on your own Twilio with both call legs and a number, against a $140 seat.

Is PhoneBurner worth it for a small team?

It depends on minutes, not features. PhoneBurner bundles unlimited US calling into a $140-plus seat. DialSheet Pro is $29/month per seat plus metered Twilio at ~$0.014/min for the carrier leg and $0.004 for the browser leg. The two cross at about 6,103 billed minutes a seat a month; a rep at 150 dials a day bills about 1,743. Below the crossover DialSheet is cheaper by a wide margin; above it, or for a team that wants live call monitoring and one vendor for everything, PhoneBurner is worth it.

What is the cheapest alternative to PhoneBurner?

DialSheet: free for one person, then $29/month per seat with no seat minimum, with single-line power dialing in the browser and, on Pro with your own Twilio, a recorded voicemail dropped at the beep with one key. Three reps come to about $117 a month all-in against $420 on PhoneBurner Standard. If you want the minutes bundled and no Twilio account, the DialSheet-managed line is $49/month with 1,500 minutes and Pro included. Stay on PhoneBurner if each rep bills more than about 6,103 minutes a month.
