Your calls, handled around your life. Gini is an AI call assistant. It answers calls for you, finds out what the caller wants, and helps you decide what deserves your attention. Use Gini to cut down on interruptions, know why someone called, protect yourself from scams, and keep important personal and business calls moving. Gini Help: call protection • Gini answers unknown callers before your phone rings and asks who is calling and why. • Gini helps block spam, robocalls, and suspected scam calls before they ring. • Turn on Live Call Screening to watch Gini screen a call as it happens, then pick up, send it to voicemail or block it. • Live scam warnings (Premium Plus, optional): if a caller who sounds real gets through, Gini can listen during the call and warn you about pressure, urgency, or requests for money, codes or personal details. • Scam texts and emails get flagged, so you see the warning before you act. • See who called, why, and what they said. Gini Agent: a call assistant for your day • Gini answers, asks why someone is calling, and takes a message. • Each call Gini answers becomes a short summary, so you get the point without the whole call. • Name the people who should always reach you, and choose by caller type whether a call rings through or becomes a message. • Tell Gini about yourself in about two minutes, by talking or typing. Nothing changes until you review and save it. Gini Pro: for home-service businesses • Gini answers in your business's name and tells callers it is your AI assistant. • It asks your trade's questions and captures the job details. • Gini asks callers for their name, a callback number they confirm, the reason for the call, and answers to your questions, then saves the details they share. • Connect your calendar so Gini can offer available callback times and book the time a caller accepts. • Offer service visits with automatic booking when enabled, or review each request before confirming. • Choose whether Gini takes messages or puts urgent callers through to you. • Gini also screens for spam and suspected fraud. One call assistant. Your rules. Saved contacts ring through normally. Choose how Gini handles unknown callers, who always gets through, and which experience fits your life or business. Your privacy • Screening audio is analyzed in the moment and is not recorded. • Voicemail and live call analysis use recordings as described in our privacy policy. • What Gini saves for you, like call summaries and messages, is encrypted (AES-256 at rest, TLS in transit). • We never share your calls, contacts or transcripts with advertisers. Good to know Gini works through call forwarding, which the app helps you set up once. Your phone number stays the same. Call handling and forwarding availability may vary by carrier, plan, country and feature tier. Metro by T-Mobile is not supported.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MessagePipe at 5.0 against Gini's 4.6. Gini's advantage is ratings volume (65 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Gini sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and MessagePipe sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
MessagePipe holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Gini has 65 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Gini ships an update every 2 days, MessagePipe weekly. Both last shipped on November 5, 2026.
