Sound familiar?

Most Hibu customers we talk to recognize at least three of these. One is usually enough reason to start planning an exit.

💸

Bill is climbing

Hibu has raised your monthly price more than once. You don't know what you're paying for and you don't see corresponding value.

🔒

Data is locked in

Conversations, recordings, and contact history live in Hibu's portal. You can't export it cleanly, you can't analyze it, you can't reuse it.

🛠

No API access

Hibu has no public API. You can't pipe call recordings into your CRM, push leads to Slack, or run analytics on your own conversations.

📜

Contract is sticky

Auto-renewal, 60-day notice windows, early-termination fees. You missed a window once and got rolled into another year.

☎️

Worried about your number

You've had your business number for years. You'd switch tomorrow if you knew the port wouldn't go sideways.

🧰

Want to own the stack

You'd rather pay $80/mo for Twilio + Chatwoot + a contact form on your own domain than $300/mo for someone else's portal.

Own-stack vs Hibu

What we replace Hibu with — and what changes for you. All components are commodity tools you can hire any developer to run. No vendor lock-in.

Questions, answered.

Three steps: (1) export your data so nothing is lost, (2) terminate your Hibu contract in line with its notice and auto-renewal clauses, (3) cut over to a replacement stack so calls, SMS, and form leads keep flowing. We do all three for you under one engagement — or just the export if you want to keep your contract intact while you decide.

Yes. Hibu does not offer a clean self-serve export, but the data is reachable through their internal API. We pull every conversation, phone call recording, transcript, SMS, and web-form submission and deliver it as a JSON archive plus an indexed CSV. Typical turnaround is 5 business days.

Not publicly. Hibu's customer-facing platform has no documented API, no webhooks, and no integration surface — which is the single biggest complaint we hear. Our export pulls data through the same internal endpoints Hibu's own portal uses, then hands it to you as JSON so you can wire it into anything that speaks HTTP.

Hibu agreements usually have a 30 to 60 day notice window before an auto-renewal date, plus an early-termination fee if you exit mid-term. The free Contract Audit reads your specific agreement, calculates exit cost, and identifies the next clean termination window — usually before you commit any money to a migration.

It depends what you used Hibu for. For VOIP + SMS: Twilio (own-number, pay-as-you-go) is the standard replacement. For the contact form: a self-hosted form on your domain that posts to email + a CRM. For the CRM/inbox: Chatwoot (open source) or Front. Together these typically run $60 – $120 per month vs $250 – $500 for Hibu's bundle.

No. Phone numbers are portable by law (FCC). We port your existing Hibu-hosted number to Twilio with zero ringing downtime. The port itself takes 7 – 21 business days depending on Hibu's release speed; we run the new and old numbers in parallel during the transition.

Five business days for the data export. A full migration (export + replacement stack + number port + cutover) typically takes 2 – 4 weeks, mostly waiting on the number port. You can sign up for service today and start receiving calls on the new stack before the port completes.

Free for the contract audit. $2,000 one-time for the data export. $5,000 one-time for the full migration. Most customers we work with were paying Hibu $250 – $500 per month — full migration pays for itself in 12 – 18 months and then keeps saving forever.

Stop paying Hibu. Start owning your stack.
