Vapi AI in one minute

Best for: Engineering teams building custom voice agents who can manage multi-provider cost stacks.

Biggest catch: Stated ~$0.05/min is only Vapi’s orchestration fee — STT/LLM/TTS/telephony are extra, so real costs often land ~$0.08–$0.31/min.

Skip it if: You need a simple fixed-price call bot with one all-in per-minute rate and white-glove support.

Price: Orchestration ~$0.05/min plus separate STT, LLM, TTS, and telephony. Production totals commonly ~$0.08–$0.31/min. (checked Oct 14, 2026)
