Developers who want to pick every part
You choose the AI model and the voice for each agent, build call flows in detail and connect a long list of tools. You manage the cost of each part yourself.
Retell AI charges $0.055 a minute for its voice platform, plus separate per-minute fees for the voice and the AI model, so most calls cost about $0.12 to $0.18 a minute before add-ons. Stemvo charges €0.15 a minute with everything included.
