- Highly customizable voice and personality profiles
- Seamless handling of interruptions during speech
- Robust developer dashboard and monitoring tools
- Flexible pay-as-you-go pricing model
- Requires technical knowledge of APIs and webhooks

Key Features
Voice Pipeline Orchestration
Manages the complex stack of STT, LLM, and TTS to ensure fluid conversation flow.
Interruption Handling
Advanced logic that allows the AI to stop talking immediately when the human speaks.
Function Calling
Enables the voice agent to trigger external actions like booking appointments or updating CRMs during a call.
Custom LLM Support
Connect your own OpenAI, Groq, or Anthropic models to power the agent's intelligence.
Multi-Channel Deployment
Deploy agents via web, mobile SDKs, or traditional telephony (SIP/Phone numbers).
Pricing Breakdown
The Build plan is usage-based, costing $0.05 per minute for platform orchestration and $0.005 per SMS or chat message. This fee covers Vapi's infrastructure but does not include the costs for speech-to-text, language models, or voice providers, which are billed separately or can be brought by the user. The plan includes 10 concurrent call lines, with additional lines available at $10 per month each. Phone numbers purchased through Vapi cost $2 per month each. Vapi also offers 'Success Packages' (Core, Pro, Premier) as optional add-ons for enhanced support, service commitments, and higher limits, which do not replace the usage-based billing.
