Hey VAPI team 👋
First of all, amazing job on the platform — it's been incredibly powerful for voice agent development.
That said, I wanted to open a discussion (and maybe get some clarity) on how we can optimize or review the cost structure per minute, especially for those of us building high-volume or long-duration agents.
Specifically:
Are there any current or upcoming ways to reduce the per-minute cost of VAPI usage?
How are costs broken down exactly — VAPI’s own margin, transcription (e.g. Whisper or Deepgram), voice providers, etc.?
Would love to hear thoughts from the team or other devs here — because as things scale, those extra cents per minute really add up.
Thanks in advance 🙏
