The Modern Business Problem: Too Many Calls, Too Little Time
Running a business today means living on your phone. Every client, every lead, every opportunity comes through a call, a text, or a voicemail. Your business phone number is the center of everything. But managing all those interactions on your own is exhausting.
If you’re like most small business owners, you use a mix of a personal number, a basic VoIP number, or maybe even a leftover landline. You spend your day bouncing between apps, replaying voicemail messages, taking notes by hand, and trying to remember what you promised a client yesterday.
That constant cycle of missed calls, forgotten details, and late follow-ups costs you more than time, and trust. You need a system that does more than just make VoIP calls. You need one that helps you stay on top of them.
That’s where M1 comes in: the first iOS-only VoIP provider built for busy professionals who don’t have time to be their own receptionist.
Why Basic VoIP Services and Landlines Don’t Cut It Anymore
You’ve Outgrown Simple Call Forwarding and Voicemail
Most VoIP services are designed for large teams with complicated setups, or they’re built so bare-bones that solo business owners have to fill in the gaps manually. A standard VoIP provider gives you a virtual phone number, lets you make calls, and maybe offers basic voicemail. But the work that follows every call still falls on you.
If you’re using Google Voice or a free VoIP service, you already know the pain:
- You miss voicemail messages that never got transcribed.
- You forget follow-ups because there’s no reminder system.
- You spend evenings typing out notes from earlier calls.
- You can’t remember who said what when you’re managing multiple clients.
You’re technically using a VoIP phone system, but it isn’t helping you run your business any better. It’s just a digital landline.
M1 changes that by turning your VoIP phone number into an actual assistant that helps with the details.
M1: The Smarter VoIP Phone Service Built for iOS
M1 isn’t another VoIP provider. It’s an AI-powered business phone system designed for solopreneurs, consultants, real estate agents, and other mobile professionals who spend their day talking to clients.
With M1, your VoIP number doesn’t just make and receive calls. It listens, captures, and organizes information for you. It manages voicemail, tracks follow-ups, and saves hours of manual work.
You can choose a local virtual phone number or a toll free number, keep your personal number separate, and enjoy crystal-clear VoIP calls from anywhere.
One App for Your Entire Business Phone System
With M1’s Business Phone, you get a simple, professional setup that replaces every outdated system you’ve been juggling:
- One app for calls, texts, and contacts
- A clean, professional business phone number
- Built-in call forwarding to control where your calls go
- Smart voicemail summaries for when you miss a call
- Reliable VoIP calls using your internet connection
It’s a complete business VoIP solution made for iPhone. No desk phones, no landlines, and no complicated setup.
The M1 Assistant: Your Built-In AI for Call Notes and Follow-Ups
Every small business owner knows that calls are only part of the job. Remembering what happened after each one is the hard part. That’s why the M1 Assistant is the heart of the system.
The M1 Assistant automatically listens to your VoIP calls, captures important details, and writes a summary you can read later. It can even create reminders and help you manage follow-ups so you don’t lose touch with clients.
You don’t need to replay recordings or guess what the caller said. It’s all written down and ready when you need it.
Smarter Voicemail That Never Gets Lost
Most voicemail systems—whether from a traditional landline or a standard VoIP provider—are slow and outdated. M1’s Voicemail Receptionist fixes that.
When you miss a call, M1 answers it, takes a message, and transcribes the voicemail into clear text. You get a short, readable summary that tells you exactly what the caller said, so you can respond fast.
It’s voicemail that works the way business does today: fast, organized, and accessible.
Call Summaries and Transcriptions You’ll Actually Use
If you’ve ever tried to remember the details from a long conversation with a client, you know how easy it is to forget key points. M1 automatically creates a call summary after every conversation.
You can find every detail you need—names, dates, agreements, next steps—without replaying anything. The Call Summaries and Transcriptions feature saves hours each week and keeps your client history right in your pocket.
Voice Memos with AI Summaries: Capture Ideas On the Go
For many professionals, the best ideas come when they’re on the move—between meetings, in the car, or on-site with clients. With M1, you can record a quick voice memo, and the system automatically turns it into a written summary.
The Voice Memos feature is perfect for real estate agents after a showing, consultants leaving quick notes, or contractors recording job updates.
You no longer have to rely on your memory. M1 organizes everything for you.
Local Numbers, Toll Free Numbers, and Vanity Options
Your business identity starts with your number. With M1, you can choose a local virtual phone number with your preferred area code or pick a toll free number that gives your business a nationwide presence.
If you already have a business number or landline phone, M1 supports number porting so you can move your existing number without losing continuity.
You can even select a vanity number if you want to make your brand easier to remember. Every option is available in just a few taps.
Reliable Call Forwarding and Caller Control
M1 gives you full control over how your calls are handled. You can use call forwarding to send incoming calls to another device or teammate when you’re unavailable.
If you want to maintain privacy, you can hide your personal number and use the M1 business caller ID.
The system ensures that every incoming call gets answered by you or your virtual assistant—no more lost leads or missed opportunities.
Integrations That Keep You Organized
Modern businesses rely on more than just a phone. You probably use email, CRM tools, and calendars daily. M1 Integrations connect your VoIP number to your existing tools.
That means your calls, voicemails, and notes can automatically sync with your workflow. Instead of typing call details into another app, M1 saves them where you already work.
M1 for Every Type of Small Business
M1 is designed for real people running real businesses on the go.
Real estate agents use it to stay organized during back-to-back showings. They rely on call summaries and voicemail transcription to track what each client wants.
Consultants use M1 to replace separate tools for calls, recording, and note-taking. After each VoIP call, they have a clean summary they can send to clients for review.
Service providers, like home repair specialists and local contractors, use call forwarding to route calls between job sites while the Voicemail Receptionist handles messages when they’re busy.
Online business owners use toll free numbers to appear professional and nationwide, even while working remotely.
If you use your phone as your office, M1 gives you time and organization back.
M1 vs Traditional VoIP Systems
Traditional VoIP systems like RingCentral and Google Voice focus on the basics. They provide a VoIP number, let you make calls, and maybe offer voicemail. But they don’t help with what happens next.
M1 focuses on what busy professionals actually need:
- Automatic organization of calls, voicemails, and notes
- AI assistance for summaries and reminders
- Simple setup, no complex configurations
- Works entirely from your iPhone
You don’t have to learn a new system or manage another login. Everything you need is in one place.
Goodbye Landline, Hello AI Assistant
Many professionals still keep a landline for their business because it feels reliable. But a landline can’t move with you. It doesn’t offer voicemail transcription, call forwarding, or AI assistance.
M1 replaces every function of your landline and adds features you actually need, like mobile VoIP calls, searchable call summaries, and automatic reminders.
It’s the modern upgrade to the business number you’ve had for years.
International Calling Without Complications
If you have clients abroad, M1’s VoIP service supports international calling. You can make and receive calls over Wi-Fi or mobile data without worrying about roaming or long-distance charges.
Whether you’re working from your home office or traveling, your VoIP phone number stays consistent and reliable. Clients see your same business number, and you can continue communicating as if you never left town.
Unlimited Flexibility Without the Complexity
Most business VoIP providers charge extra for features like call recording, forwarding, or voicemail transcription. M1 keeps it simple.
Every feature is built in—from call summaries and AI voice memos to integrations and caller control. You don’t have to manage multiple subscriptions or add-ons.
This simplicity is what makes M1 ideal for small businesses. You get professional-level tools without the headaches of enterprise systems.

- $19.99 per month
- Or $199 per year (save two months)
