An AI Voice Agent is a software system that uses STT, an LLM, and TTS to hold natural phone conversations with sub-500ms response times.
Typically $0.05–$0.20 per minute of conversation — 80–90% cheaper than a human agent at $1–$2/min.
Yes. Advanced LLMs handle multi-turn, context-aware conversations and can transfer to a human for truly complex situations.
No. The latest TTS engines (ElevenLabs, Cartesia) produce voices that pass real-time listening tests with natural pauses and intonation.
A basic agent can go live in days. A full enterprise deployment with CRM integrations typically takes 2–4 weeks.
