Readymode Pricing: The Seat Is Dear Because the Numbers Are Inside It
Readymode publishes $199 to $299 per licence per month, above every other dialer here. What the seat includes that others invoice separately, and where that trade pays.
Readymode publishes two plans per licence per month: Starter at $239 billed monthly or $199 billed annually, and iQ at $299 or $249. Both include up to 30 or 75 phone numbers per licence, free outbound minutes under a fair use policy, and inbound at 0.02 a minute, so the seat carries line items other dialers invoice separately.
Key takeaways
- Starter is $239 per licence per month billed monthly and $199 billed annually; iQ is $299 and $249. The page advertises a 20 percent annual saving, and both pairs actually work out at 16.7 percent.
- Up to 30 phone numbers per licence on Starter and 75 on iQ are included with the activation fee waived, which is inventory most dialers invoice separately.
- Outbound minutes are listed as free under a fair use policy the page does not publish, and inbound minutes bill at 0.02 a minute on both plans.
- The iQ upgrade buys caller ID reputation monitoring, assisted remediation, cadencing and integrations rather than more dialing capacity.

Readymode's pricing page opens at $239 a month for a licence, which is higher than every other dialer whose price this corpus has recorded. The interesting part is what sits inside it, because two of the line items that usually arrive as a separate invoice are already there.
Everything below was read from readymode.com's own pricing page on 30 August 2026. That page renders a monthly and an annual view into one HTML file and labels each, so both appear here rather than one being guessed at.
The two plans, in both billing states
Readymode Starter is $239 USD per licence per month billed monthly, and $199 USD per licence per month billed annually. Its card reads "Core outbound dialing features for small teams", marks it for 1 or more licences, and includes up to 30 phone numbers per licence. Its call to action is "Buy now. No demo required."
Readymode iQ is $299 USD per licence per month billed monthly, and $249 USD billed annually. Its card reads "Advanced features for high-performance outreach", marks it as ideal for 5 or more licences, and includes "Up to 75 Phone numbers (DIDs) per license included". Its call to action is "Speak with our team to get set up."
The page renders the crossed-out higher figure beside the annual one, which is the honest way to show a toggle, and it means a raw reading of the page surfaces four numbers where a visitor sees two. It also means the discount can be checked, and it does not come out where the page says it does. Readymode's own line is "Save 20% when you sign up for an annual plan.", but $239 down to $199 is a saving of 16.7 percent, and $299 down to $249 is 16.7 percent as well. A genuine fifth off Readymode's own $239 would be $191.20. Those three divisions are ours, taken over the four figures on Readymode's own cards, and they are worth doing before a year is committed on the strength of the badge.
There is one licence type on the page that costs nothing and is easy to misread. The footnote reads "One complimentary Admin license is included with all plans." and immediately clarifies that an admin licence differs from the standard agent licence and does not include standard licence features such as the floor plan and the web phone. So the free licence cannot dial. Headcount planning uses the agent count.

The number inventory is inside the seat price
Up to 30 numbers per licence on Starter, up to 75 on iQ, with the activation fee waived on both. That is the line that reframes the comparison.
Outbound dialing at volume burns caller ID. Carriers and analytics providers flag numbers that generate short-duration calls and no answers, and once a number is flagged its answer rate collapses. The standard mitigation is to hold a pool of numbers across area codes and rotate through it, which means the pool size and the rotation policy decide how fast the reputation cost arrives. Dialer modes and what a seat costs sets out that mechanic in full, and its buying checklist says plainly that number inventory and its monthly cost should be quoted rather than assumed.
On the other dialers recorded here that is a separate line. Readymode has put it inside the licence. Thirty numbers per seat is a substantial pool for a single agent, and seventy-five is a large one, so a comparison that reads only the seat figure is comparing an all-in price against a partial one.
The same applies to minutes. The comparison table lists outbound minutes as free, with an asterisk pointing at a fair use policy, and inbound minutes at 0.02 a minute. Free outbound minutes on an outbound dialer is the usage line removed from the bill, and it is unusual enough to be the first thing to confirm in writing, including what the fair use policy actually sets as a ceiling, because the page does not publish that.
Where the Readymode licence sits in this category
Published per-seat pricing for dialers clusters in two bands, and this corpus has both recorded. PhoneBurner publishes three tiers running from $140 to $215 per user per month depending on tier and billing state. JustCall's page sits far below that, at $29 to $89 per user per month billed annually with a two-licence minimum. Kixie's PowerDialer publishes line counts and no price at all.
Readymode sits above both bands, and the gap is not small. Against JustCall's entry tier the Starter licence is several times the price. Against PhoneBurner's top tier it is still higher.
Three things account for the gap, and only one of them is margin.
The bundled inventory. Thirty to seventy-five numbers per seat, with activation waived, is capacity that a JustCall or PhoneBurner buyer purchases separately.
The free outbound minutes. Telephony usage on a floor running predictive dialing is not a rounding error, and on a per-minute plan it can approach the seat cost.
The market it is sold into. Readymode's own positioning is an outbound customer engagement platform with a predictive dialer, a CRM, lead management and compliance tooling in one product. That is a call-centre platform rather than a seat that plugs into an existing stack, so the seat is buying more surface.
Whether that trade is right depends entirely on volume. A four-person B2B SDR team dialing curated lists does not need seventy-five numbers a head, and parallel dialing makes the case that line count is the whole decision for exactly that reason: past a certain aggression the constraint stops being dialing capacity and becomes list quality. A fifty-seat floor working high-volume consumer or SMB lists is a different arithmetic, and it is the one this pricing is built for.
- USD 239 and USD 299 billed monthly
- Up to 30 and 75 numbers per licence included
- Outbound minutes free under a fair use policy
- Inbound at 0.02 a minute
- Three tiers across both billing states
- Numbers priced separately
- Outbound SMS beyond the plan limit charged per thousand
- Two licence minimum
- Seat price is a floor rather than a bill
- Usage priced AI features on top
What the tier split actually gates
The feature comparison is worth reading as two groups rather than a list.
The first group is caller ID health: reputation monitoring, assisted remediation when a number gets flagged as spam, and Autopilot, whose own line reads "Automatically selects healthy DIDs based on caller ID reputation signals and the lead's carrier". All three are iQ only.
The second is orchestration: call cadencing, described as building intelligent contact strategies, and unlimited integrations. Both iQ only.
So the upgrade is not more dialing. It is number health plus connective tissue, and the first of those is the one that decides whether a floor still works in month six. A team buying Readymode Starter to save $50 a licence is buying the same dialer with none of the machinery that keeps its numbers answering, which is a false economy at any volume where numbers actually burn.
One capability is deliberately fenced on both plans. The footnote states that voicemail drop is available to those who qualify, that it is based on opt-in and consent, and that it incurs a cost for dropping voicemails. That is a compliance posture rather than a packaging decision, and it is the right one: voicemail drop is a regulated motion wherever these floors operate, and a vendor that hands it to every account on signup is creating a problem for its customers rather than solving one.
How to price a floor against this page
Readymode prices per licence, so the only arithmetic a buyer needs is multiplication, and the only judgement is which licence count to multiply.
A ten-agent floor on the Readymode Starter licence billed annually is ten times $199, or $1,990 a month. The same ten agents on the Readymode iQ licence is $2,490. The step between the two plans at that size is $500 a month, which is what number health and integrations cost on this page. Those three multiplications are ours, taken over the per-licence figures on Readymode's own card; nothing else in this article is calculated.
Two adjustments belong in the same spreadsheet and neither appears on the page. Inbound minutes bill at 0.02 a minute on both plans, so a floor that takes callbacks has a usage line the outbound side does not. And the fair use policy governing free outbound minutes is referenced without a ceiling beside it, so a high-volume floor should ask for that number in writing before treating outbound telephony as zero.
The self-serve split is worth noticing too. Starter is sold with a buy-now button and no demo, and iQ routes through the team. That is a normal packaging decision and it has a practical consequence: the plan you can buy without a conversation is the one without caller ID reputation monitoring, so the quicker path to a live floor is also the one that degrades first.
The claim to read as a claim
The pricing page opens with a line worth separating from the numbers: it invites buyers to see 4x faster return on investment compared to competitors. No method, no baseline, no comparison set and no date accompany it. That is a marketing statement made by the seller about itself, and it belongs in the same category as every vendor outcome claim, which is to say it is not evidence of anything and should not enter a business case.
The published figures are different. A price on a pricing page is checkable, dated and binding in a way an ROI multiple is not, which is why this article quotes the first and reports the second.
If the reason a dialer is on the table is that outbound is not producing enough conversations to justify a floor at all, the dialer is not the variable to solve first. Get a free campaign plan and fix the input.

Frequently asked questions.
Frequently asked questions- How much does Readymode cost per seat?
- Readymode Starter is $239 USD per licence per month billed monthly, or $199 billed annually. Readymode iQ is $299 billed monthly or $249 billed annually. Both figures for each plan appear on the pricing page as read on 30 August 2026. The page advertises a 20 percent annual saving; both pairs are 16.7 percent.
- Are phone numbers included in the Readymode price?
- Yes, and the counts are unusually high. The pricing page includes up to 30 phone numbers per licence on Starter and up to 75 per licence on iQ, with the number activation fee listed as waived on both plans. For an outbound floor that rotates numbers to protect caller ID, that is a real line item already inside the seat price.
- What is the difference between Readymode Starter and Readymode iQ?
- The upgrade is number health and connectivity rather than dialing power. iQ adds caller ID reputation monitoring, assisted remediation when a number gets flagged, call cadencing, Autopilot number selection based on reputation signals and carrier, unlimited integrations and early access to new features. It also raises the included number count from 30 to 75 per licence.
- Are Readymode calling minutes really free?
- Outbound minutes are listed as free on both plans, with an asterisk pointing at a fair use policy that the page references but does not publish. Inbound minutes are listed at 0.02 a minute. Any floor planning on free outbound telephony should get the fair use ceiling in writing before modelling it as zero.
