AI Customer Support · Voice Support

Best for: Developers building custom phone agents who want predictable bundled per-minute pricing.

Pros

All-in per-minute talk rate bundles LLM + STT + TTS with no token pass-throughs
Start plan has $0 platform fee at $0.14/min (no card) so you can prototype phone agents quickly
Build drops talk to $0.12/min with higher caps (2,000 calls/day, 50 concurrent) for production teams

Biggest catch

Start's 100 calls/day and 10 concurrent caps make real campaigns impossible without Build ($299/mo platform fee)

Skip it if: You need a plug-and-play receptionist UI, or you need HIPAA/SSO on the cheapest tiers.

Starting price: Start: $0 platform + $0.14/min talk ($0.05/min transfer; 100 calls/day). Build: $299/mo + $0.12/min. Enterprise custom. (checked Oct 12, 2026)

2. Vapi AI

AI Customer Support · Voice Support

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

Pros

Developer platform to build, test, and deploy voice agents with pluggable STT, LLM, TTS, and telephony
Strong flexibility: bring your own models and providers instead of a single locked stack
Good fit for product teams shipping phone/voice agents rather than buying a closed call-center bot

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.

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