Retell AI
Retell AI · Voice Agents & Speech/Audio
AI voice agent platform. PAYG at $0.07+/min base ($10 free credits, 20 free concurrent calls); real all-in cost $0.13–0.31/min. Enterprise drops to $0.05+/min base rate. Supports GPT-5.x variants and Claude 4.5/4.6 Sonnet; Fast Tier LLM adds 1.5–2× charge for lower latency. Direct competitor to Vapi and Bland AI.
In other words, Retell AI is worth it for developers who want a slightly more opinionated voice stack than Vapi — bundled defaults that ship faster, with paid unlocks for premium voices and Fast Tier LLM latency. Free credits make prototyping frictionless. Total cost math ends up similar to Vapi at scale, so the real choice is UI/DX preference. Enterprise ($40K–70K/yr) buys volume rates plus custom SLAs.
