AI Employee: Access, Rebilling and Reselling
AI Employee brings several HighLevel AI products together under pay-per-use, Growth, and Unlimited pricing options. Agencies can control AI access by sub-account, monitor usage, configure supported usage-based rebilling, and resell AI Employee subscription plans to clients. This guide also clarifies exactly how Conversation AI and Voice AI are covered so you can understand the difference between AI usage charges and separate Phone System costs.
What You'll Learn

Learn how AI Employee Growth and Unlimited differ, what Unlimited means for Voice AI, which phone charges remain separate, how to enable AI Employee for sub-accounts, and how rebilling and reselling work.

Important: Unlimited Includes Voice AI

AI Employee Unlimited includes unlimited Voice AI for inbound calls, outbound calls, and the Voice AI widget, subject to fair use. Unlimited does not refer only to Conversation AI.

Phone System charges are separate. A Voice AI call can therefore still create Phone System charges even when the Voice AI portion is covered by AI Employee Unlimited.

What is AI Employee?

AI Employee is HighLevel's AI offering for accessing and managing supported AI products across agency and sub-account environments. Depending on the selected pricing model, AI products can be used through Pay-Per-Use, AI Employee Growth, or AI Employee Unlimited.

AI Employee includes or works alongside products such as:

  • Conversation AI
  • Voice AI
  • Reviews AI
  • Content AI
  • Ask AI
  • AI Studio
  • Other supported AI capabilities as documented in current AI pricing

Because product coverage and usage rules can change, use the AI Product Pricing article and the pricing displayed in HighLevel as the current source of truth before quoting costs to clients.

AI Employee Plans and Voice AI Pricing at a Glance

The plan name alone does not explain every charge. Use this comparison to distinguish the monthly AI subscription, Conversation AI coverage, Voice AI coverage, and separate Phone System costs.

What Unlimited Means for Voice AI

AI Employee Unlimited covers the AI portion of supported Voice AI usage across inbound calls, outbound calls, and the Voice AI widget. The plan is described as Unlimited because those Voice AI minutes are included under the subscription, subject to HighLevel's fair-use terms.

Direct answer: Yes. AI Employee Unlimited includes unlimited Voice AI minutes for supported inbound, outbound, and widget usage, subject to fair use.

However, a Voice AI call can involve two different cost categories:

  • Voice AI usage: The AI processing covered according to the location's AI plan.
  • Phone System usage: The telecommunications portion of the call, which remains separately billable even when Voice AI is included in Unlimited.

This distinction is why an Unlimited location can still show phone-related charges without the Voice AI plan itself being billed by the minute.

How To Set Up AI Employee Access

AI Employee access is managed at both the agency and sub-account level. Enable the agency capability first, then control which client accounts should have access to AI products.

Step 1
Switch to Agency View

Use the agency switcher and select Switch to Agency View.

Step 2
Enable AI Employee for the Agency

Go to Settings → Company, locate AI Employee, and enable the available AI Employee setting.

Step 3
Open AI Suite

From Agency View, open AI Suite → Plans & Limits.

AI Suite Plans and Limits in Agency View
Step 4
Locate the Sub-Account

Find the sub-account by name or sub-account ID and use the available filters if needed.

Step 5
Grant or Revoke Access

Use the available AI Agents control to enable or disable access. You can also use the sub-account's three-dot actions menu and select AI Agents when that option is available.

How AI Employee Rebilling Works

Rebilling lets eligible agencies pass supported usage-based AI costs to clients and optionally add margin. Rebilling is different from selling a Growth or Unlimited monthly subscription because it applies to chargeable usage rather than the recurring subscription itself.

Agency requirement: Current HighLevel documentation states that agencies must be on the $497/month agency plan to rebill AI Employee usage. Also confirm that the appropriate client billing setup is active before enabling direct client charges.

For supported products, available pricing methods can include:

  • Markup-Based Pricing: Charge the client a multiplier or markup on the underlying supported AI cost.
  • Fixed-Rate Pricing: Conversation AI and Voice AI can use a fixed client-facing rate per supported unit, such as a message or Voice AI minute.

To configure rebilling from Plans & Limits:

  1. Go to Agency View → AI Suite → Plans & Limits.
  2. Locate the applicable sub-account.
  3. Open the three-dot menu.
  4. Select Configure Rebilling.
  5. Enable rebilling for the supported AI products you want to charge for.
  6. Choose the available pricing model and rate for each supported product.
  7. Review the settings and click Save Markups.

Fixed-rate rebilling does not change HighLevel's underlying agency charge. Your configured client rate determines what the sub-account is charged for future supported usage; your agency remains responsible for the underlying HighLevel cost.

How To Resell AI Employee Plans

Reselling lets your agency offer AI Employee as a recurring subscription. Instead of billing the client only for individual AI usage events, you can offer a Growth or Unlimited plan at a client-facing price you configure.

Billing ModelWhat It Does

  3. Review the available Growth and Unlimited plan options and current pricing.
  4. Select the plan you want to offer.

  6. Review any additional supported usage-pricing options.
  7. Review your cost, customer price, and expected margin.

How To Review AI Usage and Charges

When a charge looks unexpected, verify the location's plan and actual usage before assuming the subscription is being billed incorrectly. Agency Admins can review supported AI usage from the agency-level AI Suite.

  1. Switch to Agency View.
  2. Open AI Suite.
  3. Open the Usage Dashboard.
  4. Filter or review the relevant sub-account and AI product.
  5. Compare AI usage charges separately from Phone System charges when reviewing Voice AI calls.

If the location is on Growth, check whether the included monthly usage has been exceeded. If the location is on Unlimited and the charge is associated with a phone call, verify whether the charge belongs to the Phone System rather than the Voice AI subscription.

Key Takeaway
Unlimited Voice AI Does Not Mean Free Phone Service
AI Employee Unlimited includes supported Voice AI usage subject to fair use, but Phone System charges remain separate. When reviewing a Voice AI bill, identify whether the charge is for AI usage or the phone call itself.

Yes. AI Employee Unlimited includes Voice AI for inbound, outbound, and widget usage, subject to fair use. Phone System charges remain separately billable.
Q: Why can I still see charges for Voice AI calls on the Unlimited plan?
Check the charge category. Unlimited covers supported Voice AI usage subject to fair use, but the underlying Phone System usage is separate and can still create phone-related charges.
