Consultations vs Zayda

Consultations is a web-based AI client-intake service for consultants, agencies, coaches, clinics, and law firms. It conducts chat intake, qualifies leads against criteria set by the business, collects details, books qualified leads on a business calendar, and prepares a brief. Edge cases are flagged for human review rather than rejected automatically. Practice and higher plans add consented document collection, while Firm adds voice intake; chat intake is described across plans. Booking includes appointment confirmations and reminders. Calendar integrations are listed on Practice, with advanced integrations on Firm. The company says data is encrypted in transit and at rest, protected by role-based least-privilege access, and not sold or used to train external AI models. Customers can export or delete data. The AI handles intake, qualification, scheduling, and administration; licensed professionals provide advice. Pricing starts at $49/mo, with no free plan, and plans are billed annually as listed.
