A business line, not a phone system
Your business phone line. Taking calls in two minutes.
Add the app to the phone you already carry. No hardware, no install, nobody in the way.
7-day free trial, no credit card. $5 a person a month after that.
What you get with every account
7-day free trial
Try everything, pay for what you keep. No credit card to start.
Number in under a minute
It's provisioned while you're still reading the screen. Then add the app and take calls.
No contracts
Month to month. No term, no auto-renew, no cancellation fee.
No setup fees
No activation charge, nothing to buy. The number you see is the number you pay.
Everything a business line should do. Nothing you have to manage.
A number that belongs to the business
Your line stays with the company when people come and go, instead of leaving in someone's pocket along with the customers.
Working in minutes
Your number is live the moment you finish the form. Installing the app and signing in is the rest of the two minutes. Every other phone company measures this in days.
Rings your whole team at once
Put people in departments (sales, service, the front desk) and every phone rings together. Fewer calls go to voicemail.
Voicemail you can read
Every message is transcribed and emailed to you: who called, when, how long, and a written version of what they said.
Calls you can keep
Record from the app on any plan. On Pro, keep recordings in the cloud where the business can get to them, not in one employee's pocket.
Nobody has to answer everything
A greeting answers before anyone has to, in hours and after them. Callers who need a person pick an option and get one. The ones selling you something don't know which button to press.

Business changed shape. Phone service never noticed.
The company with a receptionist, a switchboard and a floor of desks became three people, one number, and a phone in every pocket. That's most businesses now. But phone service is still sold the old way: pick a tier, sign for a year or three, schedule the install, wait. The contract renews itself unless you catch it in the window. Cancelling becomes a part-time job.
Big Telecom never went away. It moved to the cloud and kept the contract.
So most small businesses quietly run on personal cells instead, and pay for it in a different currency: the number belongs to whoever answered the ad, nothing is written down, and when that person leaves, the customer relationships leave in their pocket. We built Slingshot because that is a false choice.
Slingshot is built and run by dgNetrix Communications, a phone company since 2006, by people who have been in telecom since 1998. We know what the contract, the install and the paperwork cost, which is how we know none of it needs to be in your way.
The things people ask before they sign up.
Do I need to buy any hardware?
No. Slingshot runs on the phone already in your pocket. Install the app, scan a code, take calls.
If you want something on a desk, Pro works with any SIP-enabled device, including the ones you already own. Desk phones, conference units, door entry intercoms: if it speaks SIP, it connects.
What's actually in the free trial?
Seven days with the full Pro feature set and no credit card. It's a real working business number that rings, not a demo environment.
Three things wait until you activate: adding extra numbers, transferring a number in, and outbound calling past 100 minutes. Everything else is switched on.
How do I know which plan I'll end up on?
You don't choose one up front, and you can't get it wrong. As you set things up, the panel shows what your bill would be at today's setup. If you switch on something that moves you to Pro, it tells you at that moment, names the price, and lets you undo it.
You land on the plan that matches what you actually built.
Can more than one person answer the same number?
Yes. Put people into a department, sales or service or the front desk, and every phone in it rings at the same time. Whoever is free picks up.
Starter includes two departments. Pro has no limit.
Can I bring my existing number?
Yes, and it's free on every plan. You sign the transfer authorisation on screen, we file it with your current provider, and we show you the date they give us rather than leaving you guessing.
You can set up where the number rings before it even arrives, so the day it moves across nothing changes for the people calling you.
Can I text from my business line?
Not yet. Texting is in build and will arrive on Pro, and we'll publish the details the day it ships rather than before.
Carriers require every business number to be registered before it can send a message, which is the step we're working through now. We'd rather tell you that than put a date on someone else's approval.
Will you connect to the software we already use?
Yes. The platform is API-driven, so the connections are possible to build, and we work through them in the order customers ask for them.
Tell us what you run, whether that's HubSpot, Salesforce, a booking system or something we've never heard of. Nothing is connected today, so you'll get a straight answer on where yours sits instead of a maybe.
We run more than one business. Can they share an account?
Yes, and many of the companies we run do exactly that. Each business gets its own number, answering with its own greeting, on one account. The people underneath are shared, so someone who works across two brands has one extension and one app rather than two.
That needs Pro, because it needs more than one business number. Plenty of companies start with everything on one number and split the brands out later.
Can the greeting answer in another language?
Yes. Record the greeting in whatever language you need and upload it, and the generator can produce a French Canadian voice if you would rather not record one.
Offering callers a choice of language needs Pro. Press one for English, two for the other sends each caller to their own set of options, and a menu that opens another menu is a Pro feature.
What happens when someone leaves the company?
Nothing you have to worry about, which is the whole point. The line belongs to the business. Remove that person and their access goes with them, while the number, the greeting and the voicemail stay exactly where they are.
Compare that to a business running on personal mobiles, where the number leaves in somebody's pocket along with the customers who call it.
When do I actually get charged?
Not until you activate. The trial takes no card at all. When you activate we charge the first month, and that date becomes your renewal date every month after.
No setup fee, no minimum, no annual commitment.
How do I cancel?
Tell us and we close the account. There's no notice period, no retention call, and no early-termination fee, because there's no term to terminate.
Month to month means we have to earn the next month. That's the deal.
Can I take my number with me if I leave?
Yes. It's your number, not ours. Ask and we release it to whoever you're moving to.
A business line you can't leave with isn't really yours, and we'd rather say that plainly than bury it.
Early access is open.
A real business number, on the phone already in your pocket, in the next few minutes.
