“A new client calls at 5:40 PM, after you've gone home.”
With a marketing platform
The call is still missed.
- 015:40 PM. The phone rings. Nobody is there
- 025:41 PM. Voicemail. Most callers don't leave one
- 03Next morning. You notice the missed number
- 049:15 AM. You call back and reach their voicemail
- 05Later. They booked with whoever answered
Nothing here is Levitate's fault. It's a marketing platform, and it will happily email that person next week.

Side by side
Two candidates for the same desk.
| Levitate | Jordyn | |
|---|---|---|
| The core idea | A platform that helps you keep in touch. It drafts, you send | An employee who does the work: she answers, drafts, books and files, then tells you what happened |
| Answering your phone | Not offered. Its phone number is for texting | A local number she answers in your business's name |
| Booking an appointment | A meeting-booking link you send people | She reads your real availability to the caller mid-call, books it, reads it back and emails the confirmation |
| What happened on each call | No calls to report on | The recording and full transcript of every call, with a scored review when you ask for one |
| Your actual inbox | Sends through your Gmail or Outlook | She reads Fastmail, Outlook, Gmail and IMAP mail, files it to the right client and drafts the follow-ups |
| Writing in your voice | An AI assistant rewrites, translates and writes new content | She learns your voice from the edits you make to her drafts, so the next one needs fewer |
| Learning your business | Contact profiles and the content you give it | She reads your website and keeps the facts you confirm, so your phone line answers questions about your business |
| Email campaigns | Yes: personalized sends at scale, scheduled by you | Yes, with the marketing plan. They stop the moment someone replies, with business-hours pacing and daily caps built in |
| Follow-ups | A Keep in Touch agent suggests who to contact and why | A queue that fills itself (Overdue, Today, This week, Later) from what actually happened in your mail |
| Texting | Yes: send, receive and organize texts from the platform | Alerts to you, yes. Texts to customers once your carrier registration is approved, and only to people who have texted or called your line first |
| Who does the work | You, with good tools and a Success Specialist to coach you | Her. You read the briefing and approve what matters |
| Pricing | Quoted through their sales team; three plan tiers | $499 a month for the employee, $1,499 with the marketing function. No seats to count. The phone line is $79 to switch on, then billed by the minute. 14 days free |
Levitate features per levitate.ai as of October 2026; their prices are quoted through sales. Jordyn's column is checked against the shipped product, not a roadmap. Both products change. If a row goes stale, tell us and we'll correct it.
In fairness
What Levitate does that Jordyn doesn't.
Six of them, and they are real. If one of these is why you were looking, Levitate is the better buy, and we'd rather you knew now than after a trial.
Handwritten-style cards
Levitate prints and mails real cards in handwriting-style ink. Jordyn sends no physical mail at all.
Websites
Levitate builds and maintains a full website as part of its subscription. Jordyn hosts single pages (booking, opt-in, landing and event pages) and nothing larger.
Surveys & Google reviews
Levitate runs client surveys and turns 5-star ratings into public reviews. Jordyn has no review engine.
Donation pages
Branded donation pages with donor tracking. Jordyn does events and registration, but not donations.
Texting your whole list
Levitate texts from the platform today. Jordyn doesn't text people cold at all: only people who have texted or called your line first, once your carrier registration clears.
A human Success Specialist
A named marketing expert who checks in. Jordyn's answer is that she does the work instead, with a real team behind her. That's a different trade, not a better one in every case.
Plenty of businesses run both, and that's a sensible answer: Levitate for the cards and the reviews, Jordyn for the phone and the inbox.
