I see this question all the time: Should you invest years building your own AI, or plug in something ready to go?

One of our UCaaS partners faced this exact fork in the road.

Their team debated—do we pour resources into internal R&D, or do we fast-track by integrating UponAI’s platform? (The clock ticks fast in tech.)

→ They picked partnership.

→ We plugged UponAI’s AI Voice into their white-labeled solutions.

→ They hit the market with new AI features in 60 days.

→ (Yes, 60. Not 2 years.)

The result?

• They captured new clients who wanted AI now.

• ARR jumped $120,000 in the first quarter after launch.

• Their team kept focus on what they do best—serving customers, not reinventing the AI wheel.

I love seeing these wins. It’s not always about building from scratch. Sometimes, teaming up opens the door to faster growth and new revenue.

If you can imagine AI in your phone system, you can deliver it. That’s the spirit behind UponAI.

Curious if partnership could help you reach your goals faster? Or have you faced the build vs. buy crossroads yourself?

Let’s discuss?
