OpenPhone Is Now Quo.
Phound Is the Whole Workspace.
Quo (formerly OpenPhone) gives your team a business phone line. Phound puts calls, texts, video meetings, team messaging and AI summaries in one app.
A phone line is only part of how your team talks.
Quo is built around calls and texts. Your meetings, team chat and follow-ups still live in other apps you pay for separately. Phound brings them into one place.
Calls and texts only
Video meetings aren't listed on any Quo plan, so you'd still need a separate meeting tool.
AI gated behind upgrades
On Quo Starter, AI call summaries cover only calls its Sona agent handles. Every-call summaries need Business.
Pay from day one
Quo has no free plan. Phound Basic is free forever, so your team can try it with no deadline.
Extras add up
Extra Quo numbers are $5/month each, and international calls are billed per minute on top of your plan.
