Common questions
Before you launch
Is the advertised minute rate the final cost?
Not always. Check whether telephony, numbers, premium voices, recordings, concurrency and taxes are included.
How do retries affect cost?
Every attempted or connected call can affect carrier and platform usage. Model answer rate and retry policy separately.
